About National Hot Tea Day
January 12th has been deemed National Hot Tea Day, created in 2016 by The Tea Council of the USA to promote the consumption of tea for better health.
An ancient beverage—nearly 5,000 years old—tea is enjoyed worldwide and has become a favorite drink among Americans. On any given day, more than half of the American population drinks tea.
This day is the perfect occasion to celebrate the many reasons to drink tea: diverse flavors, rich culture and history, health benefits and soothing qualities.
Tea is the most widely consumed beverage in the world next to water, and can be found in almost 80% of all U.S. households. It is the only beverage commonly served hot or iced, anytime,anywhere, for any occasion.
