Hawa Smoothies and Bubble Tea

"Hawa has a couple of locations around the city. But if you’re in the East Village, the closest is on 14th Street. (Or possibly their spot on Delancey). Their smoothies are reliable enough to convert non-smoothie and non-juice believers alike, and even their large drinks cost around $8. If you’re into customizing, you can tell them exactly what you want in yours or choose from one of their preset acai bowls, smoothies, or juices. We usually get their spicy green juice, which keeps us from making reckless typos on guides like this." - hannah albertine

"This place looks like the snack bar at your local pool, but the menu has much better options than half-frozen mozzarella sticks. It’s a tiny, cash-only spot in the East Village where the juices have names like “Hot Passion” and “Pome Queen.” If you’re not into those, they’ll gladly make a new concoction based on whatever you diagnose yourself with. Plus, you can drink your juice with those huge neon-colored straws they put in the bubble tea, which makes being healthy objectively more fun. Cost: $5" - marisa dunn
