The Japanese drink almost exclusively green tea, but drink many different types of it.

In Japan tea can be drunk hot or cold, but hot is the most popular way. Hot tea is nearly always drunk plain. Other popular types include barley tea or "mugicha," oolong tea, black tea and mixed black and herb teas. All of these can be bought in vending machines.

There are tons of other types, too, that can be bought dry and are made from different varieties and parts of the tea plant: for example, "gyokuro" is the very top grade of green tea, "kariganecha" is made from the stems instead of the leaves, "hojicha" is roasted, and sometimes brown rice is brewed with tea to make "genmaicha." A basic type of green tea, common in Japan but less common in the West is called "bancha".

everything and then some. They have traditional drinks like green tea and sake for example. They then have lots of western drinks like teas, coffee fanta, coke, mountain dew, beer, wine etc and they tend to have more variety than we do too e.g. you can buy grape fantaand fanta jelly (which is a fizzy jelly you can buy from vending machines, shake and it'll turn to liquid) and then they have their own brands of soft drinks like calpis water and pocari sweat

Why do they use green tea for a Japan tea ceremony?

It represents calmness and tranquility. The Japanese drink almost exclusively green tea; Japan produces and consumes only small amounts of other types of tea (black tea, white tea, oolong, and Pu-erh). The tea used in the Japanese tea ceremony is not just any type of tea, it is matcha, a special type of powdered green tea.
