It’s funny how every few years, Lipton tries to break their iced tea line in Britain. It never works though.
There I was in Hanley, daydreaming about whether it'll be a good idea or not to build a statue of myself in Animal Crossing New Leaf, when I saw people in yellow t-shirts, probably students, giving out free samples of Lipton's signature beverage. (These same people variously give out flyers for nightclubs or try to get you to sign up for charity donations, depending on who pays them.)
I kept my head down and tried to march past them when one of them got me. Should I say something? Make an excuse? No, I just shrugged my shoulders and walked on, looking (and feeling) sheepish.
I can see how Lipton tries this, Britain is a tea loving country, and you'd think the product would work here. I guess we're just not ready for the iced version of tea.
