As an Australian i thought that was weird since we clearly favor coffee and have a very proud coffee culture so i looked it up.

Turns out that statement is completely false. We drink more coffee than tea which matches my anecdotal experience.

Yeah, the 'flat white' espresso/milk drink which is now sold all over the world is from Australia.

I guess coming up with a new drink that appeals to people enough to go global happens easier in a place with a coffee culture.

As a Swede who enjoys the occasional flat white: thanks, Australia! :)

Yeah, given you bump into a different coffee shop every 100ft in Melbourne, I'd be surprised if tea was winning.
