TeaLyfe Drinks — Restaurant in San Jose

This is a nice place to get some unique drinks! We ordered: a coffee drink, fruity JCB, lavender oat matcha (seasonal), a chocolate cookie and a matcha strawberry cookie. JCB stands for Jasmine Cold Brew.

I had the fruity JCB and you could taste the jasmine which is nice because sometimes with fruit teas, the base tea flavor gets lost. So it tasted like jasmine tea plus some fruit flavors. I believe it was strawberry and mango, but I may remember incorrectly. It was refreshing.

My sister had the lavender oat matcha, and you could really taste the lavender and matcha. So if you like both of those, you'll like this drink.

The baristas were very friendly and informative. They offered to warm the cookies for us, and I recommend it! They came out soft and warm. The chocolate one is a chocolate lover's dream. It has chocolate all throughout; it's not just chocolate chips. The matcha strawberry was also soft. The strawberry flavor was stronger than the matcha.

It was definitely worthwhile to stop here and get...

We got The Osmanthus oolong with oat milk at 50% sweetness and added crystal Boba and it tasted a little watered down. Not sure if that was because we substitute oat milk or maybe we should of gotten honey Boba instead...

The drink cups were cute and inside the boba cafe was very nicely decorated. There was lots of available seating when we visited during the afternoon.

There are also a few seats located outside the cafe. We were out running errands and I had a bathroom and to be completely honest, it wasn't very clean. I appreciate the availability and use for customers, but it needed to be serviced a bit more. Maybe it was because they were short staffed at the time...

Overall, I think there may be better boba options, but I'm willing to give them another chance next time we...
