NYC: Cha Cha Matcha – Matcha latte with Ana

Cha Cha Matcha in New York City

October and November used to mean lots of Pumpkin Spice Latte for me, but this year, I have only had a few cups. I think my taste buds might have grown up, because these days, I find the usual Starbucks PSL much too sweet for my liking. Instead, I have started drinking matcha latte, and I am drinking gallons of that gorgeous green stuff. 

One of the best places for matcha is Cha Cha Matcha in New York City. They use matcha of a really high quality so you get just the right kind of smoothness that characterizes a good matcha. The traditional way to prepare matcha is to whip it with water into a hot and frothy drink, but at Cha Cha Matcha you will find a bunch of different matcha beverages to choose among, and in the summer months, their matcha soft serve causes a permanent line that spills out on the street.

Last time I was at Cha Cha Matcha was with Ana, and we had each our matcha latte. I thought her blue nail polish looked super nice together with the green matcha and the pink cup, so I asked her hand to be a model for my matcha photos:)

Ninja Air Fryer 4-in-1 Pro
$119.99

I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They're easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I’ve had really good experiences with the Ninja air fryers. They’re easy to use, the quality feels solid, and the results are consistently great. I like that you don’t have to fuss around with settings to get good food out of it. Vegetables turn out crisp without drying out, and chicken comes out juicy with a nice golden crust. It’s one of those kitchen gadgets that actually lives up to the hype and ends up being used all the time.

Ninja NC301 CREAMi Ice Cream Maker
$199.95

The Ninja CREAMi is hands down the best ice cream maker I’ve tried. What I really like is the texture. The ice cream comes out so smooth and creamy, better than anything I’ve managed with other machines. It’s also incredibly easy to use: you prep your base, freeze it overnight, and then let the CREAMi do the rest. With several one-touch programs, you can make ice cream, sorbet, gelato, milkshakes, or even smoothie bowls, and the re-spin function lets you make your batch softer if you prefer. You can go all in with decadent gelato, or make lighter, low-sugar or dairy-free versions. You can even add your favorite mix-ins like chocolate, nuts, or fruit to make it your own. It’s a fun, reliable machine that makes experimenting with flavors at home so much more exciting.
