Tea has infiltrated all cultures around the world, and it’s no surprise with its elite class origins that celebrities too have become obsessed with the beverage. From the beneficial antioxidants to the delicious flavors, these celebrities can’t get enough! And to be honest, neither can we!
1. Lady Gaga
Always the trendsetter and icon, Lady Gaga loves tea so much she brings a china tea cup with her everywhere. She was once quoted as saying that tea just tastes better from fine china. Another fun fact, Lady Gaga credits Kusmi Detox Tea as the solution she used to help her quit smoking.
2. President Barack Obama
The Commander and Chief ditches the coffee and starts his day off with a cup of tea. His favorites are berry flavored. I guess the flavonoids and comforting aroma of the beverages works to de-stress and put him in the best mindset. You’ll sometimes notice in interviews or meetings a mug next to Mr. President, and pretty much always filled with tea!
3. Christina Aguilera
You can find the pop diva drinking green tea mostly as a way to soothe her throat. A voice that big needs to be taken care of so she opts for antioxidant rich and light tasting green tea blends.
4. Jennifer Lopez
This ageless beauty drinks antioxidant packed green tea, which also helps with digestion. If green tea can help us age flawlessly like J.Lo, it’s definitely worth adding to our self-care routine.
5. Madonna
The Detroit-native gone total Brit expat is obviously a tea lover!
6. Taylor Swift
No Bad Blood here if you bring T-Swift a freshly brewed green tea. Soothes the throat and makes her skin glow, and doubles as a totally awesome peace offering.
7. Meryl Streep
Wonder if when shouting at Andy in The Devil Wears Prada to make those coffee runs, Miranda, aka: Meryl Streep, really wanted those cups to be filled with green tea. The totally mesmerizing Streep is known to relax and unwind with a cup of tea, that is when she is not winning an Oscar.
8. Steve Jobs
This late tech genius loved to use tea as his stress reducer and caffeine fix. There’s an excerpt from his book Becoming Steve Jobs, where the author notes:
“As we talked, he drank steaming hot water from a pint beer glass. [Steve Jobs] explained that when he ran out of tea one day, it dawned on him that he liked plain old hot water, too. “It’s soothing in the very same way,” he said.”
If that’s not a tea lover, I don’t know who is!
9. Kendall Jenner
The model is often found snacking on apples and drinking tea to keep her energy up as well as boost her metabolism.
Tea has proven over the years to be a powerful wellness aide. A fresh brewed pot can curb appetite, aide digestion and even make your skin glow. It’s no wonder celebrities swear by it and guzzle it by the gallon.
