It is officially Fall, which means holiday gatherings are imminent. I love getting together with family and friends to celebrate what life has to offer us. We usually do this with A LOT of food. I mean, it’s not a real holiday unless we are truly packing on the pounds, right?
Since we started living in Texas, most of these gathering are now held at my house. It’s great not having to travel across town with a bunch of food in tow, but that doesn’t mean it’s all lollipops and gumdrops either.
Let’s face it hosting holiday gatherings can be STRESSFUL. You have to make sure your house is in tip-top shape. You wouldn’t want Aunt May to be able to write her name on dusty furniture, would you? Then there is buying and preparing the majority of the food or at least the main dish. This is often an all-day cook palooza. Prepping, measuring, and a lot of hovering to make sure every is just right. And when you think everything is done, you find out you’ve forgotten to buy something or realize you weren’t quite hovering enough and something boils over. It can make your head want to explode.
I admit I do NOT handle stress well at all. It often makes me want to throw my hands up and quit. Can I actually do that? No, not usually and most definitely not in the midst of hosting.
Since I can’t completely run away, I like to sneak off to a quiet room. Usually, the room we have to send the cats to. Events stress them out, too. I sit and play with them and sip on a nice hot vitamin drink – Slower Cooker Blueberry Acai Tea – and relax for a little bit, gathering my strength to tackle the rest of the day.
This vitamin drink is magic in a mug yet is SO simple to make. You literally throw everything into a crockpot. Let the tea bags steep for 30 minutes and remove. Then cook on low for 4 hours and set to warm. It’ll be waiting for you, all nice and toasty, just when you need it most!

To relax and destress during the holidays I need to take time for myself. Those little moments you can grab when you do not have to do anything or take a soak in the tub are priceless.
I will be making this,this morning I do a lot of berry and veggie drinks I am a health freak. I’ve never seen this before. I have been up since 4 am drinking hot lemon, raw honey tea tring to kick this head cold I have. My husband will be on way home from work at 10 am I will be sending him a list to stop at store. I was wondering if I could use black raspberrys , or any other berrys? I have 15 gallons bags of raspberrys I picked out of my yard this summer.
Of course! Any berry would work, however, it may not have the same nutrients as the ingredients listed above. However, most berries have wonderful nutrient properties.
This drink looks so delicious and a definite benefit during the holiday season when might indulge a little too much. Acai and berries are so good for you.
That’s really lovely. Acai berry has so much benefits and combine it with blueberry, it’s going to be a powerhouse. This tea is perfect for the season, I had no idea you can make it using a slow cooker!
