Go Green (Tea) with Hai Street

Screen shot 2015-06-09 at 2.44.19 PMHai Street Kitchen & Co. has been on a hot streak so far in 2015. From the spiced-up celebration of Cinco De Mayo with HSKC’s signature wasabi guac for free, or the return of the Screamin’ Tuna  kicked up a notch with diced jalapenos and spicy Korean pepper gochujang sauce, Hai Street has really turned up the heat this summer.

Now it’s time to step back and cool down a bit. And what a better way than with their Sweet Green Iced Tea? In celebration of National Iced Tea Day on Wednesday, June 10, 2015, HSKC will be giving them out for FREE when you #GetHai with the purchase of a roll, bowl, or salad. Their refreshing matcha green tea blend is not to missed.
