Detailed explanation-1: -In the U.S., for instance, people drink three times as much coffee as tea; in Russian the ratio is almost exactly reversed.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tea was eventually phased out The end of the Revolutionary War was in 1783. This means that the Colonists (and soon to be Americans) had boycotted tea for roughly 10 years. It was over these 10 years that people developed a taste for coffee and once people started to drink coffee every day, there was no going back.
Detailed explanation-3: -The average American drinks just over half a pound of tea per year, which is barely enough to crack the top 35 worldwide. Turks, by comparison, drink nearly seven pounds per person per year; the Irish drink just under five pounds per person per year; and the English drink just over four.
Detailed explanation-4: -The United States has a very caffeinated population. Three-quarters of American adults drink coffee-and most (53%) drink at least one cup per day, according to a new YouGov poll conducted September 21-25.
