The UK's lowly position in the coffee rankings may be down to our
devotion to another hot beverage: tea. We drink more tea per person per
year (4.281 pounds) than all but two other nations, according to 2014
Euromonitor statistics. Turkey tops that particular table, with 6.961
pounds consumed annually per capita.

The countries that drink the most coffee
It's International Coffee Day, a global celebration of flat whites and espresso martinis.
But which country is most fond of the much-loved bean? We've mapped the world according to coffee consumption per capita – and it's the Finns that come out on top. They grind their way through an impressive 12kg per person per year, according to stats from the International Coffee Organization (ICO).
Brazil is the world's biggest exporter of coffee, shipping a truly remarkable 5.7bn pounds of grounds each year, according to ICO. In fact, Brazil has been the world’s largest exporter of coffee for more than 150 years. It supplied around 80 per cent of the world’s coffee in the 1920s, but that figure has fallen to around a third.
Second is, perhaps surprisingly, Vietnam, with 3.6bn, followed by Colombia, Indonesia and Ethiopia.
