From day one, We’ve been about doing things differently.

We don’t pre-mix.
We don’t cut corners.

Every drink is brewed fresh and crafted by hand, with premium ingredients and real innovation behind every recipe.

We’re also the brand that invented Rock Salt Cheese Tea—a creamy, salty-sweet sensation that became a global icon and helped set us apart from everyone else.

Over the years, Happy Lemon grew from a local favorite to an international brand with 350+ stores across 21 countries, including the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia, South Korea, Japan, and the UAE. And we’re just getting started.

In the U.S., we’ve opened over 100 stores in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Boston, Houston, and Chicago. But our expansion isn’t just about numbers. It’s about culture—bringing something authentic and exciting to new communities, one neighborhood at a time.

At Happy Lemon, we believe tea should be a treat, a ritual, and a reason to smile.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup or building a multi-unit franchise, you’re joining a movement rooted in quality, creativity, and joy.

Where tea culture meets global obsession

Happy Lemon started with a single idea in 2006: to take generations of Asian tea culture and reimagine it for a new world of flavor, fun, and freshness. Born under Taiwan’s Yummy-Town Group—a publicly listed company and one of the original pioneers of modern tea—we weren’t just part of the boba boom. We helped spark it.
