Does anyone still drink tea in the UK? : askuk

The UK still imports £223m in tea a year. It has gone down since COVID. £271m.

But yes tea is still a very popular drink in the UK.

Got into the snooty world of loose leaf at uni.Tea is fun and no one questions you really a pack of chocolate hob nobs in one sitting if your tea has flowers floating in it

I know this will piss off british ppl but the brits dont drink tea. They drink warm (not hot, warm) milk with a flavor of tea (from a bag btw).

Well that's a good way to get Brits riled up. Next, you'll be saying that biscuits are French. 😱
