7. WHY WAS TEA SO POPULAR IN THE AMERICAN REVOLION ?
Tea was very classy, it was family togetherness
Poor families drank tea to get them through the long work day and to
show they, too, could appreciate the finer things. Middle-class families
drank tea to show the rich that they were, sophisticated too. Wealthy
families drank tea with expensive porcelain tea services from Europe or
China itself (where the tea came from) and silver utensils to show that
they were just as good as people in England, too. All this sophistication
was important to Americans, who were always self-conscious about
Looking good in front of their cousins back in England.
