Boycott the Tea!

Dorothy Duckinsie, Invention / Things Historian

Boycotts are one of the oldest ways to let people, companies, or governments know that you are unhappy with something they are doing.  The colonists boycotted British tea.  Tea was a very popular drink in the colonies.  So instead of not drinking any tea, the colonists would drink smuggled tea or tea made from other plants.  They drank Labrador tea and Balsamic Hyperion that they made from dried raspberry leaves.  They also drank coffee!
