"Egalitea Organic Cafe (248 Newbury St., Boston) — stylized as ÉgaliTea Organic Café — debuted Saturday, July 27, opening the doors to reveal a menu of hot and iced teas, tea lattes, and even tea ice cream flavors. The cafe displays an array of loose-leaf teas, including green and white teas, oolong, black, pu’erh, and assorted blends. Egalitea also has a heavy focus on environmental consciousness, striving "to serve foods and drinks that maximize the balance among people, social equity, and the environment," according to its website. In addition to teas, Egalitea serves cafe fare, including yogurt bowls, chia bowls, acai bowls, and oatmeal, all of which come with a variety of toppings like nuts, granola, fruit, seeds, and edible flowers. The venue offers smoothies, bagels, and soups. Inside, the cafe features exposed brick, black banquettes with low tables, and bar-height seating along a wall adjacent to the counter. Egalitea operates seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m." - Dana Hatic
