The V and a meat pie. Does it get any better than that?!
The V energy drink is the most popular by far in New Zealand and comes in six flavors. It’s my favorite energy drink anywhere. Meat pies are basically minced meat and gravy. You’ll find them filled with things like peppers, mushrooms and cheese. Both are readily available at gas stations and dairies. They fly off the shelves due to their iconic status and deliciousness.
The photo is the V (went with original) and pepper steak meat pie that I consumed while taking a break on the lawn of Cranmer Square in Christchurch.

I miss New Zealand pies. I was totally obsessed with them. There’s nothing like it in the US.
Definitely not, miss them too. Every time would stop at a dairy or gas station it seemed, grabbed a pie and a V energy. 🙂
