Yes, it is. Technically, anything that can be ingested is a food although we normally apply the word "beverage" to those foods that are liquid. But tea can also be eaten, which clearly qualifies it as a food.

Green tea has been used in food recipes for thousands of years in Asia. This "wonder food" that has so many health benefits is often mixed into everything from soups to cupcakes after the leaves lose their tea making strength. There are a variety of vitamins and minerals that remain in the leaves, and eating them gets those into our system.
