We're throwing today's Geo Quiz overboard. On this date in 1773, protesters here in Boston boarded three British ships and threw a few hundred chests of tea into the harbor.

Boston Tea Party

It wasn't really a tea party - though that's what we call it. It was a revolutionary statement against British taxes. In commemoration of the Boston Tea Party, here are a few facts.

Tea is the world's second most consumed drink, after water. Something like 3 billion cups of tea go down the hatch every day.

India is the biggest tea-drinking nation ... though its "per capita" consumption puts it behind several other countries. The British are number one. They have a cuppa tea four or five times a day.

Ireland, New Zealand, Japan, and the Netherlands are close behind. Okay...now that you know which countries drink the most tea, can you name the countries that produce the most tea?
