Imagine thinking you are superior because you said the word tea, as if tea isn't a famously high profile drink in the United States.

Seriously as an American, I don't know a single person who doesn't drink some type of tea.
Y'all can keep downvoting, but iced tea and sweet tea are both hugely important cultural drinks in the United States, so implying that Americans haven't heard of tea is just wrong.
Their point is *water is healthy because it doesn't contain any additives". Then the Brit popped in with the Tea idea and they put far less sugar in their tea, if they put any in.
Us 'Muricans need ten pounds of sugar in everything in order for it to be palatable, so a Sweet Tea and store bought teas are loaded with sugar/HFCS.
