peach ginger fizz iced tea

Iced Tea is a summer’s drink. It makes up about 85 percent of all tea consumed. It’s a popular beverage in the South, where they like it sweet!

The oldest printed recipes for iced tea date back to the 1870s.

Its appearance in the United States was sometime in the 1860s. During the 1870s, it had grown in popularity as a novelty and then became widespread as recipes appeared in print, the beverage was offered for sale at railroad stations, and it was on hotel menus.

In 1904, at the World’s Fair in St. Louis, Richard Blechynden introduced it to the public.
