All that you mentioned are not in the same category with the usage of tea to mean Chocolate drink.

Tea and chocolate are different.
Tea, cocoa and coffees are generally known as beverages


Omo is a brand of detergent
Maclean is a brand of toothpaste
Tea is not a brand of chocolate.

I hope You understand.

By Merriam Webster dictionary: a drink that is made by soaking the dried leaves of an Asian plant in hot water
: a similar drink that is made by using the dried leaves of another kind of plant
: the dried leaves that are used in making tea. Even if the drink is made with chocolate, milk and hot water(without tea) most Nigerians will still call it tea. So, stop behaving as if you know more than the op and everybody that agreed with the post.
