Hey I’m just voting for this country because nobody knows anything at all about it and I feel bad that it’s legacy is ingrained in being the backthought of some poor unfortunate soul who had to do research on this for his 6th grade History Report.

Thanks in advance. Keep fluffing that Tea amirite natives of whatever country I’m replying this to.

Formed in 1916 after the Easter uprising, Ireland is a small country with a population of roughly 5 million. I don't know if their tea is with alcohol but I wouldn't be surprised. I know for sure that their signature coffee (Irish Coffee) is with Irish whiskey.
EDIT: I was wrong. It turns out it doesn't have alcohol in, I must have got it mixed up with Irish coffee. Sorry :/ my mistake.
Irish tea? I know that has alcohol in by the way.

No, the #1 tea consuming country is Turkey, with 7.54 kg (266 oz) per capita. China is at #33 with only 0.82 kg (29 oz) per capita.
In other words, the average person in Turkey drinks 9-10 times more tea than the average person in China.
China's total consumption may be higher (or even #1) just because they are many people but this doesn't say much about their habits - total consumption doesn't say how much tea the average person consumes. Consumption per capita is more relevant and reliable.
