What are some ways to reduce the caffeine in my tea besides drinking herbals or decaffs?
• Brew full-leaf teas instead of teabags. Full-leaf teas release caffeine more slower than teabags. • A “hot water bath” will reduce the caffeine in hot tea. Steep the leaves for 30-45 seconds then throw away the first cup/ pot. Use the same leaves for a caffeine-reduced second cup/pot. • Cold-brewed iced tea using tap water is much lower in caffeine compared to tea brewed with hot water. • Drink Green teas because caffeine content is lower that other teas.
