Celebrating National Tea Day

National Tea Day is an annual celebration of all things tea on the 21st of April. It’s a beverage that’s a core part of British culture but has been incredibly popular and prominent in history long before the Brits got a hold of it.

This special day is a celebration of a beverage that continues to unite people from all different backgrounds and walks of life. What brings people closer together than a cup of tea?

Within the UK, for many Brits, it’s a deep-seated identity that we hold. From the humble Yorkshire Tea to the sophisticated Twinings, there’s an abundance of tea flavours available nowadays to choose from.
