How the Milk Tea ATM works

Three taps from craving to cup.

STEP 01

Find a machine

Use the map to spot the nearest Mycha across Chicago and LA. There's always one open.

STEP 02

Tap your flavor

Browse the screen, pick your drink, and pay with a tap. It only takes a few seconds.

STEP 03

Grab it fresh

A cold, freshly made cup drops into the tray. Grab a straw and you're on your way.

Brewed with premium tea leaves.

From fruit teas and milk teas to our signature overnight cold-brewed coffee, every Mycha recipe has been refined over the years—from rich, chocolatey coffee to smooth, roasted, nutty oolong. Enjoy a freshly prepared cup of Mycha on the go.

Precision in every pour.

Behind every cup is a machine that measures, mixes and chills with robotic consistency, so your drink tastes exactly right, every time.

Freshly made

Made with real tea leaves.

Machine precision

Robotics handle every pour for consistency you can taste.

Always cold

Kept perfectly chilled and ready the moment you tap.

BEHIND MY CHA

Engineered from
the ground up.

Built by a small team obsessed with better drinks.

We started with one question: can a machine make a drink as fresh and satisfying as one made behind a café counter? It has guided every version since.

Fresh over fast

A drink should never taste like it came from a machine.

Technology disappears

The robotics impress, but the drink is the star.

Keep improving

Every machine teaches us something new.

“What if every drink was made fresh, after it’s ordered?”
The question that reshaped the newest generation.
EVERY LAYER, A YEAR OF WORK
2025–NOW

The next generation

Freshly made to order on the robotic platform.

2023

Beyond one city

Expanded to LA: campuses, hospitals, workplaces.

2020

First machines

Refrigerated machines launched in Chicago.

2018–20

The beginning

Testing whether great drinks could be automated.

Recommended on Restaurantji

Our Block 37 machine was singled out by Chicago diners as one worth coming back to. It is the busiest one we run, and every review behind it came from someone who stood in front of it.
