The tea market in the U.S. continues to enjoy mass appeal in the U.S. The category’s performance in the last couple of years, particularly in ready-to-drink segments, has shown the strong durability of the market.

Tea is experiencing growth, impacted by factors including: an interest in tea culture at foodservice; new products that emphasize tea’s functionality; trends towards premium and specialized products in bagged, loose and ready-to-drink tea; and Starbucks’ push into RTD tea through its partnership with Anheuser-Busch.
