PURCHASE, N.Y. (March 1, 2012)—Lipton, the largest tea brand in the U.S., today kicks off the brand’s most comprehensive marketing initiative to-date with the announcement of an exciting partnership with Grammy Award-winning trio Lady Antebellum. Lipton and Lady Antebellum together will bring inspiring music, refreshing tea and entertaining content to fans across the country in support of new Lipton Tea & Honey iced tea mixes and Lipton 100% Natural ready-to-drink bottled iced tea.
