Thishas been suggested before but with not much detail, lots of new blocks and lots of work to code. This is my suggestion on how to add tea.

New Items/ Blocks Tea Black Tea Coffee Black Coffee Tea bush Tea leaves Dried tea leaves Hot Water Coffee Tree Coffee cherries Coffee beans

Tea Bush

Tea bushes would grow semi-rarely in Rhūn and commonly in a new rare sub-biome called 'tea hills'. Tea bushes work in the same way as other bushes; you can harvest Tea Leaves which you cannot eaten but can be used to make tea.

Coffee Tree

Coffee Trees are small trees that grow in the far Harad jungle and possibly the Gulf of Harad. They act like bushes; you can collect coffee cherries from them by right clicking.

Ingredients 

Tea Leaves

Tea leaves can be dried in a furnace or hobbit oven to make dried tea leaves. Dried tea leaves can be sold by Oddment collectors and Easterling, Dorwinion and Hobbit Traders.

Coffee Beans

Coffee beans can be made by putting coffee cherries on a vanilla or Taurethrim crafting table these can be used to make coffee and black coffee. And can be found in Taurethrim structures and are sold by Taurethrim and Haradrim traders.

Hot Water

Hot water is made by heating a water bucket in a furnace or a hobbit oven. It is an essential part of all the drinks suggested here and takes the place of normal water in a barrel.

Drinks 

Tea

To make tea get a barrel and put 3 hot water buckets in the water slots, add 2 dried tea leaves 2, 2 milk bottles or buckets and two sugar. This makes your FOV bigger, gives you 3 hunger points and also stops you sleeping for 30 seconds.

Black Tea

To make black tea get a barrel and put the hot water buckets in the water slots then fill the other slots with dried tea leaves. This also increases your FOV, gives you 2 hunger points and stops you sleeping for 1 minute.

Coffee

Coffee is made by putting hot water buckets in a barrel and then 2 coffee beans, two milk buckets or buckets and two sugar. This increases your FOV, gives you 3 hunger points, gives you 1.1x speed for 5 minutes and stops you sleeping for 1 minute 30.

Black Coffee 

Black coffee is made by putting 3 hot water buckets in the water slots and filling the rest with coffee beans. It increases your FOV, gives you 2 hunger points 1.2x speed and stops you sleeping for 2 minutes.

Additional Ideas

I think it would cool if when these drinks were placed would give off smoke particles. I think hot water could also be placed and would naturally in bathhouses and give off smoke particles!

I also think that you should be able to "dunk" cookies by right clicking on a placed beverage and it adds half a hunger point and makes a dunked cookie!

Constructive criticism please. I will add textures if it gets kudos!
