THE LAND OF MILK AND HONEY!
milk + honey, a little sanctuary for all things frozen and sweet, recently opened at the CAMP in Costa Mesa.
Owner Jee Shin offers tasty shaved ice, tart frozen yogurt, blended drinks and high-quality organic coffees and teas. The shaved ice is a Japanese version called Kakigori, a mixture of milk and honey on a bed of flaky shaved ice with your choice of six flavors ranging from mango to passion fruit ($3.75 to $4.75).
The frozen yogurt tastes similar to a Pinkberry-type tart yogurt, only this one is less creamy and has more flavor ($3.50 to $4.25).
You can customize your yogurt with 24 toppings to choose from including fresh fruits, gummy bears, sweet red azuki beans, carob chips and more.
The blended drinks are a must, too: green tea latte cooler, vanilla chi cooler, orange creamsicle, acai berry energizer and more ($3.95 to $4.95). And try a watermelon-lemonade blended fresh everyday--it's a beautiful and refreshing drink.
Open 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday; 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday. 2981 Bristol Street in Costa Mesa. 714.708.0092.
