From a press release:
“Spot of Tea, DC’s local bubble tea shop, will celebrate its grand opening inside Union Market (1309 5th ST NE) with $1 regular drinks and $1 soft serve minis all day on Saturday October 22nd and Sunday October 23rd.
Spot of Tea’s core drink lineup features colorful, one-of-a-kind flavors such as Blue Jasmine, Vanilla Taro, and Hibiscus Mango, while seasonal flavors, like Matcha Red Bean and Apple Chai-der, offer new twists on old fall favorites. Top off each drink with your choice of Spot of Tea’s house-recipe tapioca boba, sweet lychee jelly, or savory adzuki red bean.
At Union Market, Spot of Tea will also debut its lineup of vegan, oat-based soft serve. Their Kyoto Matcha, made with ceremonial-grade matcha and Oatly oat milk, creates a delightful dairy-free treat. Meanwhile, Black Sesame is made with real, ground sesame and is a rich, nutty, caffeine-free option for people of all-ages. For those who can’t choose, combine both flavors into a colorful, photo-worthy swirl!

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
