Whenever you search for something on Twitter, the site remembers so that you can search for it easier next time, if you ever want to see it again.
Twitter uses your search history to help build a profile on you, to show you more things that you might like or want to see when it makes suggestions. If you find that your interests have changed and you no longer want to see some suggestions based on your old search history, a simple solution is to delete it.
You may also want to delete your search history now and again simply to de-clutter your search bar.
No matter what your reason is for wanting to clear your Twitter search history, here's how to do it.
