The North America Hard Tea Market would witness market growth of 23.2% CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2028).

Hard tea can be made using a variety of different ingredients. Whether it is classic English breakfast tea or orange pekoe, black tea is the ideal partner for rum. Cocktails, such as the Fish House Punch (a full pint of dark rum with as much black tea, and some Cognac and peach brandy) and Planter's Punch (a basic blend of dark rum and black tea) have proven this time and time again. The natural sweetness of rum balances out the bitterness of black tea, but other spirits, such as whiskey, can sometimes exacerbate it. Boozing green tea eliminates many of its stated health benefits, the flavor is worth it.

However, green tea infused directly into Japanese whisky offers a unique take on the Whisky Highball. The tea gives the whisky a savory, grassy flavor that makes it perfect for mixing with food or drinking on its own. The Green Tea-Infused Whisky Highball can be made with 2 ounces of soda water, 1.5 ounces of green tea-infused whisky, and a sea palm garnish.

Green tea imports increased slightly year over year in 2019, remaining at 15% of overall imports.
