Tea is the second most consumed beverage worldwide, after water. In 2020, the FAO estimated that about 7 billion tons of tea were produced worldwide, and later we will see where they are produced. According to Statista Consumer Market Outlook, the global tea market is expected to reach $266.7 billion by 2025.

In second place is Kenya, a major producer and exporter of tea, with 83% of respondents saying they regularly drink tea. Meanwhile, the UK ranked slightly lower with 59 per cent of people saying they drink tea. Although this is still high, it is about ten percent lower than the neighboring country, Ireland.
