A railway worker was dismissed after he tested positive for cocaine in a routine drug test. He had been drinking a herbal tea he bought from a market, which he later found contained cocaine. AdvertisementA British railway worker fired for a positive drug test was unfairly dismissed, a tribunal ruled, after he argued that he had drunk herbal tea infused with cocaine. Inca Tea, also known as mate tea or coca tea, is a South American herbal tea, which contains the same active ingredient as cocaine. After researching the product, he told the tribunal that he came to realize it contained cocaine.
