All About Tea!

In 1904, at the St. Louis World’s Fair, Richard Blechynden inadvertently created iced tea. It was unseasonable hot and Richard, the then Commissioner of Tea for India and the Director of the East Indian Pavilion of the St. Louis World’s Fair, was unsuccessfully trying to give samples of hot tea to fair-goers.  In an attempt to make the product more “attractive” to attendees who were seeking out the coldest beverages available, he added ice to the samples.
