The best ever. They used to sell chocolate, but I haven't seen that recently (might be due to summer temperatures). Still a fantastic place to stop by and get wonderful tea 😊. Great toast and cookies. I have been coming here for years and need to more frequently.

This place is truly special and not to be missed. Cali Rosina hand mixes all their loose leaf teas, and you can taste the care in every cup. Whether you’re into bold black or mate teas, matcha, or need something caffeine-free, with their fresh juices they’ll whip up a masterpiece that fits your exact preferences. The creativity of the menu and craftsmanship behind each blend make this spot stand out - an absolute must visit for any tea lover. Do yourself a favor and try the food too. The toasts are magically fluffy and flavorful, some verging on decadent. You’ll be able to find the perfect beverage and snack every time.

If you’re visiting or a local, you absolutely must experience the tastiest toasts and high quality tea drinks!! Before coming here, I wasn’t a tea person, until Jodie educated me on the various types of tea and why this quality differs from conventional tea, and now I CRAVE them everyday. There is no place like Calirosina in SD, OC, or LA. This isn’t Lipton, this isn’t sachet bags of dead leaves, it’s 100x better. You can visually see and sniff tea samples from their giant tea wall (open a jar and explore!!), they make the most refreshing caffeine or non caffeine tea based beverages with natural sweeteners like agave and honey plus they’ll mix in yummy flavors of real fruit. They offer hot and iced, seasonal menus, hot chocolate made from melted chocolate, and French press too! Some of my faves: - coconuts in the grass (matcha) - pearls on the beach (secret menu hehe) (see and sniff jasmine pearls tea) - lapacho orange (orange creamsicle) - poolside (very addicting on a hot day) (lavender coconut lemon YUMMY perfection) - triple D for that classic sweet tea - strawberry peach Palmer (my go to) (see and sniff these tea leaves) - green tea maple walnut (perfect iced with maple syrup for Fall time - you can sniff this one in person and see the actual ingredients in the tea mix) -watermelon or strawberry based drinks (usually seasonal during summer) - hibby juice with a tajin rim!! - hot honey avocado toast - WILD salmon bagel - fudge - homemade - cookies - fresh!! All ingredients are sourced with high quality standards for us healthy / crunchy / granola types lol Jodie and Kenny are wonderful and make you feel so welcome. They’re locals and would love to help educate you on their mission and products!

10/10, I couldn’t recommend this place more. My boyfriend and I love going to cafés, and we usually end up at coffee spots. I’m more of a tea person and don’t really like coffee, but he found this place and suggested it for a little date. As a tea lover, WOW. It’s absolutely amazing. You can genuinely taste the quality and care that goes into every drink. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried, and even my boyfriend, who was hesitant about getting coffee at a tea shop, now says it’s the best mocha in the valley. He’s a total coffee addict and super picky, so that really says something. Not only are the drinks great, but the food is incredible too. I highly recommend the Thai sandwich. The portions are huge, and the prices are totally worth it. And the customer service is wonderful. Kenny and Susie are amazing, and we always feel so welcomed when we walk in. We love stopping by and chatting with them. This place is truly a gem, and we always recommend it to friends and family
