Tea Time! – The Humble Tea Bag Celebrates Its 100 Year Birthday

At Mars Drinks we like to uphold old traditions and love a good celebration (any excuse!). Our drink vending machines all use the very best drinks that our buyers can source, therefore we use proper tea bags.

June 25, 2008 - PRLog -- Happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear tea bag, happy birthday to you!! Last week we, at Mars Drinks, joined in the celebrations and raised our drinks in joyful praise and thanksgiving!

But did you know that the tea bag was the result of a lucky accident?! Thomas Sullivan, a New York coffee merchant, stumbled across the idea whilst sending out a mailing campaign to promote his new stock. He had decided to send the tea out in little silk sacks to make transportation easier. However customers, mistaking his packaging for innovation, popped the bags in their cups, and low - the tea bag (http://www.klix.com/klix/en-GB/Productsandsolutions/Drinks/Full-Range/) was born!!

At Mars Drinks (http://www.marsdrinks.co.uk/index.asp)  we like to uphold old traditions and love a good celebration (any excuse!). Our drink vending machines all use the very best drinks that our buyers can source, therefore all our drink vending machines use proper tea bags.

Mmmmmm – a slice of birthday cake and a cup of proper tea – the key to a productive and very happy day at work. Thank goodness for birthdays and Mars Drinks.
