ATHLEISURE LIST: NYC
LE TEA
For those that enjoy having cups of tea that are innovative and filled with decadent flavor, Le Tea is your new destination. Since June 20th of this year, they have had a rolling soft opening with its grand opening being on August 18th.
The brand utilizes French PurĂŠe and authentic Chinese tea sources which satisfies their customers with a novel tea beverage that is bitter yet sweet. This not only refers to tea culture, but the art of life as well. With all the senses being utilized, guests can enjoy a tea that is highly aromatic with a drink that resonates with their personal life as well.
Located in NoMad on Broadway, there is an active exploration of space in NYC for additional locations such as Long Island City and Staten Island.
Three signature teas that are recommended are Mango Fruit Tea & Milk Foam, Mixberry Fruit Tea & Milk Foam and also Starry Kumquat Lemon. Fruit tea is the most popular category on the menu. An interesting offering that one should try is Le Cheese Coffee which is only available at Le Tea. It's a mixed taste of cold brew coffee and salt cheese foam. It's definitely a unique tasting experience.
Le Tea was founded by fashion graduates of Parsons The Newschool for Design in NYC. They believe that their aesthetic as a medium for beverages draws a connection between art and life. In addition, environmental protection is key as they have recyclable stainless steel "Golden Straws" and high quality Pet 1 non-disposable plastic cups.
