"One place that is guaranteed to make us feel better after we pay it a visit is Living Water, a cute tea parlor that opened last summer in University Village. Their menu has a variety of hard-to-find teas (like Pu-erh and Dong Ding oolong), honey peach avocado milk, pastries like salted egg yolk or taro su, and a variety of basque, pudding, and cotton cheesecakes." - adrian kane
"Find milk tea and other beverages at this East Asian tea parlor situated in Little Italy. Living Water Tea House hosts tea tastings and live music, always providing a relaxed vibe. Not only does the tea deliver, but ownership is very particularly about the vessels — tea is only as good as the equipment it’s made and served in — and the pots and cups at Living Water are something to behold." - Sam Nelson
"If giving booze doesn’t feel right, consider tea and pastries from Living Water, a cute tea parlor that opened last summer in University Village. Their menu has a variety of hard-to-find teas (like Pu-erh and Dong Ding oolong), honey peach avocado milk, pastries like salted egg yolk or taro su, and a variety of basque, pudding, and cotton cheesecakes. They also have teaware for sale, but the handmade pottery isn’t available for delivery. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"Find milk tea and other beverages at this “East Asian tea parlor” situated in Little Italy. Living Water Tea House sports a unique mission and even allows customers to book their own tea ceremonies, a unique way to sip tea and learn about Chinese traditions. Not only does the tea deliver, but ownership is very particularly about the vessels — tea is only as good as the equipment it’s made and served in — and the pots and cups at Living Water are something to behold." - Aimee Levitt
