RE: Beyond the Tyranny of Now

Oh yeah, those work too. I think they use those when they brew the tea leaves directly in the pot. The strainer is put over the mug to catch the leaves. The black teas can have about 1/3rd the caffeine as coffee, more if they're brewed strong. I was just diagnosed with a heart murmur so I have to be aware of that now too.

Sort:  

I have some caffeine free green tea at home that I enjoy from time to time. I'm guessing it's more of a naturally occurring thing and they need to do some science magic to make it not caffeinated, so the choices are quite low.

You may want to try white tea. It's super low in caffeine and is made from the same plant as the green and black teas. Some of these white teas are really phenomenal.

I might have to look into that! Does it still have the same health benefits like antioxidents and stuff?

Yeah, white tea actually has more than the other varieties because it’s not processed as much.

Thanks again for the info!
