Toasty to the palate, Popcorn tea, Laborer’s Tea…this tea has a story behind it, as many do. To make tea accessible to the laborer, it was ‘cut’ with roasted brown rice, which sometimes popped into tiny popcorn-like pieces. It became so popular it is now a classic. Now, this is just one version of the story…several others exist.
