SnO Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Coffee or tea? It seems to be a long and ongoing debate about the most popular hot drink, and regardless of our personal preferences or the most consumed drink in our country, in whose favor will this debate be resolved? Will coffee or tea be the most popular hot drink in the world? Although it is difficult to provide an accurate percentage of global tea and coffee consumption, as it can vary depending on the data source, the time period studied, and other factors, we tried in the report to obtain close-chronological statistics for both coffee and tea from a single statistics site, so that the comparison would be closer to accuracy.
