Downtown Riverhead’s newest tea café is officially open for business.
Vital-A-Tea on East Main Street is serving up more than 30 varieties of tea, along with 12 ounce freshly prepared juices and juice shots.
Customers can relax in an airy sit-down café with their beverage or take home the teas in loose-leaf packages.
“I want everyone to feel like this is a peaceful space where they can sit and relax,” said owner Carolyn Poncato at a ribbon cutting this morning celebrating the café’s grand opening.
Poncato also offers free meditation and yoga sessions at the café every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at noon.
Everything about her café and its beverages, Poncato says, is established in her practice of Ayurveda, one of the world’s oldest holistic healing systems. Read more about the story behind Vital-A-Tea here.
Vital-A-Tea is located on the south side of East Main Street, near the Roanoke Avenue intersection.
