The Greek Rx For A Better Memory!

                           The Greek Cocktail! 

We can learn a lot of things from the Greeks in regards to our health.
And if you're worried about memory loss, an inability to focus or
even full-blown Alzheimer's, drink an alcoholic beverage inspired by the Greeks.
A cocktail to help improve memory?

Yes, a glass of wine, a shot of whiskey or a beer a day boosts memory
and attention span. Moderate drinking helps veins stay healthy and 

flexible, ensuring the brain gets a steady supply of nutrients.
And compounds in wine, help prevent brain plaque linked to
Alzheimer's. 


And now to the Greek Rx to help keep your brain in tip-top shape. 

It comes from the Greek Islands and it's called The Metaxa Sunshine.
It's a rose-petal infused brandy made from grapes harvested by the Aegean
sea--with pomegranate juice.

The Recipe for Metaxa Sunshine...
3 to 5 ice cubes
3 Tbs. + 1 tsp. Metaxa
1/4 cup of pomegrante juice
Orange peel strips, (optional)
Place a few Ice cubes into an 6 to 8 oz. glass
Add the metaxa and pour on the pomegranate juice.
Stir to mix and garnish with a strip (or two) of orange peel.
Enough for 1 serving.
That's it- a refreshing drink all the way from Greece.
And if yo can't find Metaxa, use brandy or a red wine. 


And if you want more recipes like these, head to 

Amazon.com/the kindle store and type The World's Best Adult Beverages in the search bar.

The World's Best Rxs For Valentine's Day Leftovers!

                           Use Those Leftovers! 

Although we're not sure how Valentine's day is celebrated in say--France, Italy, 

Spain or Greece, we decided to go ahead and give you our thoughts on 
how to use up those leftovers. 
You know, the roses, the champagne and the chocolate.
First up, the champagne...
a) Drink it up to keep your heart and mind in tip-top shape.
The grapes used to make each bottle help keep plaque from
sticking to delicate arteries in and around the heart and brain.
b) Thicker Hair- 

Don't give in to the latest and (more expensive) hair care product, 
just use some lukewarm champagne as a conditioner.
It'll leave hair looking thick and luxurious.
Now on to the chocolate....

Chocolate like grapes can keep both your mind and heart in tip-top shape
as well. Give credit to the hundreds of compounds found in dark choc.
And there's more...
Eat some dark chocolate or drink a cup of unsweetened cocoa each day
and you'll...
* slash stroke risk by 20%.
eat a few grapes as well and lower it by 45%.
* stave off middle-age spread
* Extend your life by another 3 to 5 yrs. 

 * Fend off blue moods.
 Don't add choc. to white flour and sugar to make a decadent
 dessert. Not only will blue and dark moods increase, you'll also
 have middle-age spread to contend with.
And lastly, the flowers, aka Roses.
Throw some rose petals in your bath water for youthful skin
or place some in a large bowl along with some avocado and a tsp. of honey. 

Blend together, lie back and apply to your face and neck.
Leave on for 15 to 20 mins. and then rinse off with water.
There you have it, some great uses for leftovers that'll not only
improve your health, but your looks as well.

Good Luck!
