A new HTeaO is expected to open in Denton County sometime in the spring or early summer of 2023. Owner Tommy Dove is planning to bring the newest HTeaO to 2270 Justin Rd. in Highland Village.
HTeaO features two dozen flavors of freshly-brewed teas in sweet and unsweet options. Guests can mix and match and add fresh fruit to their tea flavors.
Lemonades and pre-packaged healthy snack options are also available. HTeaO offers bagged ice and Triple Pass Reverse Osmosis Water, which can be purchased by the bottle or gallon.
The nearly 2,600-square-foot store will be new construction and will include space for self-serve tea plus YETI merchandise. There will be no sit-down dining available at the new location.
Gary Hutchens had been selling flavored iced teas at his burger restaurant, Buns Over Texas, in the Texas Panhandle, and in 2009, decided to open a dedicated tea store with a drive-thru. It was named Texas Tea and later rebranded to HTeaO. Franchising began in 2018, and HTeaO now has dozens of locations across Texas and others in Oklahoma and Florida.
