Tea dance? (3-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cha-cha

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dance?' is the definition.
(I know that cha cha is a type of dance)

'tea' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'tea' could be 'cha' (cha is a type of tea) and 'cha' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'cha' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cha-cha that I've seen before include "Latin-American dance" , "Modern ballroom dance from Latin America" , "Repetitive Latin American dance" , "Latin American ballroom dance" , "certain steps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
