Who first started drinking tea the US or the UK?
Tea was introduced into the UK and the American colonies in the 17th Century. Charles II's Queen, Catherine of Braganza, had grown up with a taste for tea. When she married Charles and came to England, tea gradually became a fashionable drink. This was made possible by the British East India Company, which in 1664 placed an order for 100lbs of China tea to be shipped from Java for import into Britain. It wasn't until around 1670 that English colonists in Boston became aware of tea imported by Dutch settlers, but it didn't become available for sale to the general colonies until the end of the century. Tax on imported tea from Britain sowed the seeds for the War of Independance.
