How Much Caffeine Actually is in Tea?
This is one of the most common questions asked about tea.
A pound of tea contains more caffeine by weight than a pound of coffee. That pound of coffee is good for about forty cups, compared to the two hundred or more cups you can easily make from a pound of tea. A cup of tea may be said to hold less than half as much caffeine as the same amount of coffee. It’s worth noting that this comparison was made using black tea, which has approximately three times as much caffeine as most green teas and twice as much as oolong.
Thats a considerable difference. Guess that’s the reason why a tea addiction is easier to kick than a coffee addiction.
