== History == Nestea was introduced in the US by Nestle in 1948 as a soluble tea, "manufactured in the same way as Nescafé". After 1991, it was manufactured worldwide by Beverage Partners Worldwide (BPW), a joint venture between Nestlé & The Coca-Cola Company, and in the United States by The Coca-Cola Company. Since the start of 2017, Nestlé and Coca-Cola have agreed to end the iced tea Nestea joint venture after 16 years of collaboration. One of the reasons for this was that Coca-Cola and Nestlé wanted to pursue different strategies in a rapidly changing market, with Nestlé handling the distribution of Nestea in most countries, except Andorra, Bulgaria, Canada, Portugal, Romania, Serbia and Spain, where Coca-Cola Company retained a license.
