Coffee may get many of us moving in the morning, but tea is what we turn to when we just want to cozy up with a hot cup of something soothing — whether we’re nursing a cold, our nerves are frazzled or we just need an afternoon break. (Add a scone and you’ve got a legitimate 4 PM tea time.)

Not just a British thing, tea is the second most widely consumed beverage in the world (only losing out to water, obviously). Each day, more than 159 million Americans drink tea, and it can be found in almost 80% of all U.S. households.
