British consumers continue to turn away from tea and towards coffee, with the latter set to maintain stronger retail current value growth in 2023, mainly driven by a surge in prices. Retail volumes are expected to fall in all major hot drinks categories in 2023, even in those which had been consistently expanding, such as fresh ground coffee pods. This is attributable nearly entirely to increases in prices, as well as the recovery of out-of-home consumption.
