After a five year process, co-founders of Milk Tea People, Kevin Ung and Tim Gardner, were more than excited to open their doors on July 9, 2021. The two travelled to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin, and Chicago, to explore tea shop innovations, but it was their trip to Kyoto, Japan that inspired their craft beverages at Milk Tea People. It was in Kyoto that they learned how to organically process and harvest tea leaves and grind matcha from a tea farmer. They witnessed a traditional Japanese tea ceremony and wanted to take the cultural practices back to Colorado. Now, in BaseCamp at Market Station, you will find Kevin hand whisking

the matcha beverages and Tim welcoming visitors to enjoy tea samples. A dream come true, they are proud to offer drinks using the highest quality ingredients. Milk Tea People continues to work closely with loose tea leaves suppliers in Japan, which gives farmers 100% of the price paid for tea. Through this collaborative effort in working directly with the farmers, the tea leaves are properly sourced and as a result, approximately 95% of their loose tea leaves are certified organic. Enjoy unique drinks, including the bubbly tonics that infuse jasmine green tea with splashes of San Pellegrino, or frescas that include refreshing blueberries and lime.
