Where Coffee Meets Simplistic Perfection
At With Honey, we believe that coffee is more than just a drink—it’s a universal experience that brings people together, regardless of their background or lifestyle. Whether you’re starting your day or taking a quick break, a cup of coffee offers a moment of shared joy. It provides a brief connection to something comforting, even amidst life’s hustle, and reminds us how small, meaningful experiences can unite us all.
​
Our mobile coffee cart is dedicated to elevating this experience by serving carefully crafted, high-quality coffee with a focus on building genuine relationships and providing exceptional service. We proudly use organic, locally sourced ingredients, including raw honey, organic dairy, and alternative milks, to ensure that every cup is as thoughtful as it is delicious.

"You can have the best laid plans and then life finds you." - Mom
Hey there honey! My name is Erica Basa and I am the owner and head barista at With Honey. My dream started when I was on a different path. I was going to school for Mechanical Engineering and Environmental Science with hopes to become a Desalination Engineer. It’s funny how you can have the best laid plans and then life finds you.
​
I would go to coffee shops all the time to study and get my schoolwork done and at this point I didn’t care too much for the taste of coffee so I would try to drown it out with caramel or vanilla or whatever sweetener they had. Then I was gifted an old Breville espresso machine back in November of 2022 and I’m not kidding when I say that was probably the worst shot that has ever been pulled in the history of espresso. I changed some things and then pulled another shot and thankfully this one turned out better. I probably spent hours on that machine trying to make my espresso shots taste better but throughout this process, I realized that I was hooked. I started obsessing over all of the minute details and loved how the small changes would affect the overall shot so drastically.
​
This then lead me to going to all of my favorite coffee shops and dissecting what I liked, what I didn’t like, what techniques were different, ingredients, all of that to figure out what I liked. My go to order was always a breve cappuccino with honey…
It wasn’t long before I took that espresso machine to my local Jiu Jitsu gyms and was enamored by the response from everyone.
I decided 2 months later that I wanted to design and build a mobile coffee cart and I officially launched on June 1st, 2023.
​
Now if you’ve read this far, I want to share a little more about my passion. Plain and simple, I love the art and craft of making a cup of coffee. My goal is that every sip takes you through a subtle inclination of joy and comfort. I want to take with honey to a new level that doesn’t compare to espresso based drinks. With Honey isn’t just a coffee business, it’s an experience infused with care and thoughtful attention to every detail. Thank you so much for being a part of my journey.
Created and Crafted for that Perfect Sip.
At With Honey, every syrup is crafted with intention, using only the freshest ingredients sourced from local farmers markets. I believe that flavors should do more than just drown out the taste of coffee—they should accentuate, balance, and enhance the natural flavor notes of the espresso we've carefully and passionately crafted. Unlike traditional signature drinks that often feel muddled, each of our syrups is designed to complement and elevate the coffee experience. By partnering with local farmers, we're able to bring the highest quality ingredients to every cup, ensuring that every sip reflects our commitment to authenticity and flavor.
​
At With Honey, we prioritize not only flavor but also the quality and integrity of our ingredients. Our coffee is sourced from organic farms and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of mycotoxins and other molds, delivering a clean, pure coffee experience in every cup. We are equally thoughtful with our milk options—our dairy milk is A2 organic, offering a more natural and digestible alternative to conventional milk. For those who prefer non-dairy options, our alternative milks contain just three simple ingredients, free from gums, preservatives, and unnecessary additives. This commitment to clean ingredients ensures that every drink is as wholesome as it is delicious.
