The statements are **false**.
Indigo is not a spice; it is a dye derived from the indigo plant, historically used to color fabrics. It does not sweeten drinks, and it was not traditionally used by the Spanish in tea and coffee. Instead, spices such as cinnamon or sugar would be used to sweeten those beverages.
