So you don’t have an argument, like I thought . Also, maybe if you had a brain you would use it sometime . Americans don’t drink tea, New Yorkers and Bosteners drink tea. Americans drink coffee, always have, and it was because the Spanish sold it so cheap and it was outside the colonial government (black market) that it was so popular .

Also, the southerners actually grow their own coffee and sugar and everything. The south actually highly liked Britain. The thing that pushed it over the edge was Britain making slavery illegal in 1773. This created an influx of slaves leaving there masters and hopping on ships to England , where they would become freeman .
