While three cups of tea are consumed worldwide for every cup of coffee, it’s only recent that your everyday coffee drinkers are dramatically flocking towards the other brew. Now, of course drinking tea is by no means a trend, after all it’s the most consumed drink on the planet next to water; but the humble cup is making major strides to change consumer perceptions of the timeless delight. With a rise in the desire for local craft, people are beginning to think of tea with the same reverence as coffee due to its vast varieties, flavor combinations, and health benefits.
