Though Australia gained independence from British rule over 120 years ago, its tea culture remains deeply rooted in British influence, particularly through the introduction of imported teas.
The significant transition in Australia's tea industry began in 1878 when Alfred Bushell established the country's first commercial tea plantation, paving the way for local tea production.
Eucalyptus, an ingredient native to Australia, has gained popularity in tea due to its flavor and medicinal benefits, originally utilized by Indigenous Australians.
Billy tea, brewed traditionally with eucalyptus leaves, is credited to entrepreneur James Inglis, connecting Australian culture with this unique beverage despite its decline in popularity.
