"Tea Lyfe may have started in a family’s small kitchen but it quickly climbed its way up the boba chain after transitioning to a pop-up and then opening at a brick-and-mortar store in San Jose. With two locations today, it still embodies its humble beginnings. By melding both the family’s Vietnamese and Mexican cultures into their menu offerings, Tea Lyfe stands out from other boba shops through drinks like Vietchata, which is infused with Vietnamese coffee and the family’s time-honored horchata recipe." - Cathy Park
