We understand that the tax mentioned in the passage ...... .
The British brought the tea habit, introduced by the
British East India Tea Company, to its North
American colonies. They later imposed a heavy tax
on the people's daily beverage, an act which was
one of the factors that led to the American War of
Independence. In protest against this tax, the
colonists dumped a valuable cargo of tea into the
Boston Harbour in 1773. Following this, coffee
gained popularity as the democratic beverage and a
symbol of resistance. American patriots plotted their
strategies for independence in the coffeehouses of
the colonies. Coffee quickly became the favourite
drink of the young nation. It moved west with the
pioneers. To this day, coffee ranks as the number
two drink among American adults, after plain water.
