But if you’re traveling and find yourself to be at an airport in France, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to sit down and enjoy a comforting GingerLove as well. Some Fnac stores also have an Alto Café. This puts GingerLove at some fun shopping and traveling places in France! Want to know where you can find Alto Café’s? There’s a map on their website .

But there is more! Starting February 15th, we want to start the GingerLove invasion in the whole of France! We’re looking for hip, inspiring , healthy and buzzing locations where GingerLove could be offered as the new drink in town. That’s right, you could bump into GingerLove just about anywhere in France starting this year!

Do you know a place where you’d love to enjoy a foamy cup of GingerLove ginger tea? Do you know the place to be at a town or village in France and do you think it should have GingerLove on the menu? Make sure to let us know in the comments of this post, on our Twitter profile or Facebook page.

In 2012, GingerLove is taking over France! An intriguing, mysterious and spicy hot drink…we think GingerLove should appeal to the passionate French! But GingerLove can also be an ingredient in some surprising recipes and is an excellent companion for a good, French cheese. Yes, we really believe GingerLove will feel at home in France. We’re looking forward to hearing from our first French fans!

Combining cheese and ginger tea might seem a bit peculiar at first, but GingerLove is delicious in many ways and with many accompanying dishes. Gaining a spot on the shelves of Europe’s most well respected cheese store illustrates the success of this unique combination.

Cheesemonger Van Tricht and his son have been among the most renowned cheese experts in Europe for decades. They deliver cheeses to the finest restaurants in Belgium, Luxemburg, Ireland and The Netherlands. In 2010, the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal declared Cheesemonger Van Tricht to be the best cheese store in Europe.

Cheesemonger Van Tricht also specializes in breads, the finest delicatessen and Italian olive oil. We’re very proud our GingerLove ginger tea, a local Belgian product, is available at the internationally respected and well known store of Cheesemongers Van Tricht & Son.

In for some cheese tasting with a glass of wine? Cheesemongers Van Tricht ‘s store has a unique Cheese & Wine bar where customers can taste, discover and appreciate a wide variety of cheeses with good wine or…a cup of GingerLove! Our ginger tea is also available at this stylish bar.

If you are ready to experience the unique combination of cheese & GingerLove, you are very welcome at the Cheese & Wine bar of Cheesemongers Van Tricht & Son in Berchem, Antwerp. You can find the opening hours and other useful information about the store and its cheeses at www.kaasmeestervantricht.be (Dutch website).

The store’s open for a very limited time: the doors close on the evening of November 19th already. That’s right, you only have a couple of days left to go and create your own eco friendly Timberland shoe, become a perfume maker or collect a delicious and eco friendly survival package with GingerLove.

A survival package?
Yes, Lombardia supplied the Pop-Up Store with the best vegetarian and eco friendly food and products. You can check out our favorite products, like DJ Tiesto’s favorite Vita Coco Coconutwater, and combine your favorites into into an eco friendly survival kit, or more importantly: into a collection of products you never want to be without!

Green soles
But there’s more: Timberland lets you create your own fashionable and eco friendly shoe at the store. You can customize it to your taste completely and then order it just as easily. Did you know most shoes are a burden on the environment? Especially the soles of footwear often have plenty of toxic products in them. Well, not these shoes and soles. Make sure to get your exclusive pair!

Carrot perfume
There’s one more unique thing you can get at this Pop-Up Store, though. The magnificent and innovative Magnolia perfumes. These perfumes are made from eco friendly ingredients and have a special green ring to them. Ever heard of a perfume made of carrots? No? We discovered it at the Pop-Up Store and instantly fell in love.

Launched with GingerLove
Last week, Belgium’s stars opened the Pop-Up Store officially and vegetarian restaurant Lombardia catered the whole event. Our GingerLove mix with white wine was a big success, we enjoyed serving it in special GingerLove bio cups, and stars like Sabine Appelmans and Pascale Naessens sipped our spicy ginger tea while shopping green.

Go visit!
So, what are you waiting for? Go and have an eco blast in this unique and innovative store! You can find the Timberland Pop-Up Store at Verlatstraat 29, Antwerp. We’ve been happily wearing our carrot perfume ever since the store opened. Let us know what you bought or discovered at the store and how you are liking those brand new eco friendly shoes!

Curious about this recipe? We’ll let you in on Alain’s mother’s secret recipe for an extra foamy cup of GingerLove:

Take 2 sachets of GingerLove and mix them with 240 ml of cold water. Stir well and get out your espresso machine with milk frother! Use the milk frother to make the GingerLove mix extra foamy, like you would normally do with milk.

Kim had heard of GingerLove before and had noticed our ginger tea at her local store but hadn’t tried it yet. We were happy to serve her her very fist cup of our wonderful ginger tea in Lombardia. While sipping her cup of GingerLove, Kim noticed the pictures on our walls.

“Did all these stars really drink GingerLove?”, she asked. Yes, they did! We promptly got out our camera, took this wonderful picture of Kim at Lombardia drinking GingerLove and added a very special Belgian star to our collection!

The fair’s slogan, ‘Taste the Future’, also fits our bill perfectly! We are very excited to be part of Anuga thanks to Schaerer, a well respected international brand, because it’ll help us building GingerLove’s future. The world stars of the food industry visit Anuga and we hope to surprise them with our delicious ginger tea. That’s why we’re organizing a three day GingerLove tasting at the booth of Schaerer.

It would be great to find new distributors for GingerLove at Anuga. It could help GingerLove to conquer the world! That’s why we are very excited to leave for Cologne this weekend. Once we’re back, we’ll let you know if we have some great new plans coming up. GingerLove might really taste the future in Cologne!

When Tomorrowland welcomed DJ Tiestö , it turned out coconut water isn’t widely available in our little country. Good thing we always have some in stock at Lombardia! Alain decided to surprise the Dutch DJ with a very hydrating and spicy, energy boosting, alcohol free cocktail. It’s an excellent anti hangover cocktail, by the way.

Want to make your own healthy alcohol free cocktail with GingerLove and coconut water? All you need is one sachet of GingerLove extract, some VitaCoco Pineapple, some crushed ice and a straw. Mix the VitaCoco and GingerLove in a longdrink glass, add the crushed ice and mix it all with a colorful straw to create your own delicious cocktail. This drink will have you rehydrated in no time after a night of partying! Enjoy!

If you’re looking for an impressive party this summer, Tomorrowland is definitely your place to be. Starting July 22nd an impressive list of artists and DJ’s will have you dancing all weekend long at domain De Schorre. If you don’t have tickets, hurry! The ticket sales are a big success but there are some last tickets available for Friday evening. We are looking forward to offer the festival crowd a spicy and healthy drink to get energized with, without caffeine!

Our vegetarian restaurant Lombardia will be part of the party as well! We’re installing a special temporary restaurant at Tomorrowland so you can party, drink and eat healthy all weekend long. Are you coming to Tomorrowland? Make sure to drop by Lombardia and try our special Tomorrowland power food and our energizing foamy ginger tea, GingerLove. In 13 days Tomorrowland opens its magical doors and we just started counting down!  See you there?

The ‘Marché des créateurs’ is a yearly event where contemporary artists meet and exhibit their work. You can find rare pieces here, never shown to the public before, or purchase limited edition art for a reasonable price. This makes the Marché a wonderful event for all lovers of contemporary art.

We were honored to have our booth set up among these inspiring and fascinating artists at the MUDAM museum. Our spicy and foamy ginger tea with citrus certainly pleased the crowd and artists. More than a hundred people joined the GingerLove page on Facebook because of the event!

As mentioned above, GingerLove tea is now available at the MUDAM museum’s magnificent café. You can order a foamy cup of cold or hot GingerLove in a wonderful environment or you can stroll to the museum shop and take GingerLove home with you.

We want to thank all the artists and the MUDAM museum for the amazing experience. A special thanks to Stina Fish! She made these days an unforgettable success. We’d also like to give a shout out to the artists Leon Rose Magma, Les M en Régis R. You can find out more about them through the links.

GingerLove is now an official gold sponsor of the Belgian beach volleyball team Liesbeth Mouha and Katrien Gielen. We are proud to support them in their journey to the Olympics in 2012! This week you too can help these ambitious athletes: order GingerLove tea or visit us at Lombardia to help the team make it to the Olympics.

Liesbeth and Katrien have been professional volleyball players for years now. In 2011 and 2012 they want to take things to the next level and  become one of the top beach volley ball teams in the world. Their most ambitious dream is to make it to the Olympics in London next year. They’ve been training hard and will keep doing so!

Crazy about GingerLove
Liesbeth is a big fan of GingerLove and we are honored to support her team’s Olympic dream as an official gold sponsor. Liesbeth discovered GingerLove in Shanghai, where she visited the Belgian World Expo Pavilion and tried the official hot beverage: our spicy ginger tea.  For Liesbeth, it was love at first taste!

Support Liesbeth and Katrien!
This week we want to give Liesbeth and Katrien an extra hand in accomplishing their dreams and ambitions, and you can help! We are donating 50 percent of all profits made on GingerLove.be and all meals ordered at our vegetarian restaurant Lombardia, with the specific mentioning of the code ‘London Olympics’.
