SOUTHERN SWEET TEA
Southern Health
As summer settles in, tea lovers make the switch from hot tea to iced tea. Many casual tea drinkers will also choose iced tea, though it isn’t really iced – just cold.
In the southern United States, sweet iced tea is such a traditional beverage that it is simply known as “Tea”.
Iced black tea was not popular until around 1884.
Contrary to popular belief, iced tea was NOT invented by the man, Richard Blechynden, who was Tea Commissioner for India.
