The Tea Council of the U.S.A. has announced the celebration of National Hot Tea Day for January 12, 2016. Tea fans are asked to honor tea as a special beverage in their lives. The day comes in the middle of what has already been recognized as National Hot Tea Month.
Peter Goggi, the president of the Tea Council of the USA said in a press release, “While iced tea has been the preferred brew of American tea drinkers, anecdotal evidence suggests consumption of hot tea is on the rise. Not to mention, hot tea sales in the U.S. have increased more than 17% over the last five years. Whether you prefer green, black, oolong or white tea, there is something for every palate, and National Hot Tea Day is something everyone can enjoy and participate in.”
