The biology/biochemistry of the native flora/fauna is irrelevant to growing Terran plants as they synthesise everything directly from minerals; assuming the soil contains all the minerals they need, the only concern would be pollination which may need to be done by hand (human or robotic). Whilst that might be more labour intensive, the additional cost is likely to be offset by increased harvest from the lack of disease and not being eaten by local fauna. So, coffee and tea (along with other favourite Terran plants) growing are likely to have followed the Solomani diaspora to every planet where the climate is suitable for growing them.
It's a different case for Terran animals which may not be able to consume the local flora/fauna.

Would have gone with G(a)SbAG.
Tubb was British, and if it's not camellia sinensis, it's just a tisane. There is no telling what humaniti will one day steep in hot water and drink for a quick pick-me-up.
I'm partial to rooibos and yerba mate, and I've tried chicory, dandelion, pine needles, and mahuang (Mormon Tea, ephedra) when camping and out of instant coffee.
I like Vanilla Rooibos.

In theory, when you grow up, you could add vodka.
And then they did.

If you think about it, vodka would be universally available.

I’m guessing this could be a Vilani campaign. Adventures in the old Ziru Sirka, got to save the heritage fungi.
