Enjoy a Cool Drink This June Let’s Celebrate National Iced Tea Month!
The First Iced Brew In 1904, a heat wave struck St. Louis during the city’s first world’s fair. Richard Belchynden, a merchant attending the fair, was offering the attendees small samples of his tea. However, due to the hot weather, fairgoers didn’t want to drink the heated beverage. Undeterred, Belchynden, who had traveled a long way to attend the fair, decided to switch tactics — if the public wanted a chilled beverage, then he would oblige. He added ice to the steeped tea, and soon, the grateful guests had a new beverage: iced tea. Although Belchynden is given credit for serving the first official iced tea, it is referenced many times throughout history before that fateful world’s fair. Historical evidence suggests that iced tea was served and consumed in the Southern states as early as the
1870s. However, a lack of refrigeration technology at that time made these chilled drinks a luxury. The Health Benefits These days, most bottled iced teas are made with sugary syrups and branded as sweet tea. While sweet tea is tasty, the unsweetened version is not only refreshing but also healthier because it has fewer calories and provides more nutrients. If you want a more traditional taste of unsweetened iced tea, then try making your own! One simple recipe is to take 1 ounce of your favorite tea and steep it in 1 gallon of water overnight in the fridge. In the morning, remove the leaves and pour yourself a glass!
The best thing to have on a hot summer day is a cold beverage, and nothing is more refreshing than a glass of iced tea. Since June is National Iced Tea Month, get out your tall glasses and ice cubes and let’s celebrate tea!
Now you can celebrate National Iced Tea Month with your very own brew!
