Many people would have you believe that there is only one acceptable libation when there is no alcohol on the menu (although why would there not be any alcohol?!).
The tea’s alright
Yes, that’s right, those coffee purists will turn their noses up at anything that is not an iced, Ristretto, 10-shot, venti with breve, five-pump vanilla, seven-pump caramel, four-Splenda. Poured, not shaken, obvs.
Well, I believe it’s high time that somebody stood up for the little people. The most popular selfie hashtags cannot be commandeered exclusively by those annoying java snobs on Instagram.
Tea is a thing too, people, and it deserves some respect. Herbal tea, green tea, chai tea — every tea is legitimate and deserves its own unique tea hashtag, whether for Instagram or Facebook.
Fortunately, I am not alone in my quest to have tea recognized as the rightful regal ruler of all things non-alcoholic. My Insta-baes have got my back to the tune of nearly 40 million posts.
While this is awesome news for all of the true Tea Lovers of this world, it also means this is a cool niche angle that you can use to up your own Insta game.

Hashtagging these most popular terms in your next elegant pic of that beautifully prepared cuppa will see your likes blow up and that follower count starting to tick northwards.
And I mean, let’s get serious about tea, people.
What is the Queen of Goddamn England’s favorite tipple? Everyone knows the woman is mad for the chai.
And she sure as Shirley ain’t ever so much as seen the foaming monstrosity that is a cappuccino in no Downtown Abbey. People have been sent to the Tower for less.
Ugh, how common.
Fight the good fight
Compared to coffee’s 155 million posts (and counting), it’s clear that we tea people have a lot of ground to make up if we’re to overthrow the joe-swillers’ dominance, but this is a fight that can be won.
Not only will this fight be won, but it will also propel your Insta stats into the stratosphere while we’re at it. All everybody needs is a little encouragement.
And there is no better way to do this than to get those tea selfie hashtags singing loud and proud.
Crack out your best china, get that lighting right, and let’s spread the word of love (tea).
