If America\u2019s birthday ever needed an especially enthusiastic communal high-five, this year is it. We cannot wait to spark up the grill for brats, burgers, Korean beef bulgogi and barbacoa. To hang flags, laugh with friends at a gathering and, yes, to drink a lot of tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We often think of the United States as a nation of coffee drinkers, and it is. Per capita, Americans consume more coffee than tea. But tea sipping, thanks largely to iced tea, is catching up on coffee slurping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">America and Tea \u2014 A Lifelong Relationship<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Either way, tea has figured largely in the American imagination since the 18th century. The 1767 Townshend Acts imposed duties on a number of British good imported into the Americas, including tea. In 1773, British Parliament passed The Tea Act, giving the British East India Company a monopoly on tea sales in the colonies.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AdobeStock_56051659-1024x663.jpeg\" alt=\"July 4 tea\" class=\"wp-image-1446\" width=\"592\" height=\"382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AdobeStock_56051659-1024x663.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AdobeStock_56051659-300x194.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AdobeStock_56051659-768x497.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AdobeStock_56051659-1536x995.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.kuchatea.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AdobeStock_56051659-1600x1036.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 592px) 100vw, 592px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tea taxation and regulations helped foment the American Revolution.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The two Acts precipitated the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.history.com\/topics\/american-revolution\/boston-tea-party\">Boston Tea Party in 1773<\/a>, which led to the Revolutionary War. The country\u2019s birth, in part, involved an assist from tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As US expanded in population and geography, iced tea rooted in the American South, serving as part of the region\u2019s culinary identity. Chinese immigrants first began entering the United States in 1850, brought tea with them, and began exposing the people to greens, oolongs, whites and different styles of black tea. Mormons made tea from a plant native to the American Southwest, Ephedra nevadensis, after migrating from the Midwest to Utah in 1847. It\u2019s called Mormon Tea, and still sipped today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Revel in the parties \u2014 and recover with pu-erh tea<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of tea\u2019s many advantages is its health properties.
