Although it is widely believed that tea bags are more common in Britain, tea bags were first developed in the United States. Around 1908, New York tea merchant Thomas Sullivan (Thomas Sullivan) began to send tea samples to his customers in small silk bags. Some people think that this is the same way to use a metal syringe, putting the whole bag into the jar instead of pouring out the contents. You see, the tea bag was born.

Soon, the silk fabric was adjusted to a thinner fabric, and people began to prepare to make tea bags. In the 1920s, these bags were developed for commercial production and became more and more popular in the United States. The features we still know today are already there-there is a rope hanging on one side of the bag so that the bag can be easily removed with a decorated label at the end. This is how tea bags are born.

Come to think of it, this mistake is why so many people drink tea today. People learn from comfort and can be extended to drinking tea. It's really interesting to know that. So, whether you use a tea bag from time to time, or just drink it at will-we can at least thank Thomas Sullivan, even though his original tea bag design is a little flawed.
