How much caffeine is in decaf tea?

Decaf tea is a popular choice for those looking to reduce their caffeine intake while still enjoying the taste of tea. Although decaf tea does contain some residual caffeine, the amount is significantly lower compared to regular tea. On average, an 8-ounce cup of decaf tea contains about 2 to 5 milligrams of caffeine, whereas a regular cup of tea can contain anywhere from 30 to 70 milligrams of caffeine. The decaffeination process involves removing most of the caffeine from the tea leaves, resulting in a beverage that is much lower in caffeine content. It's important to note that the exact caffeine content can vary depending on factors such as the type of tea and the specific decaffeination process used by the manufacturer. Here at Miles, our decaf tea can certify that the caffeine content is less than or equal to 0.10%.

Is decaf tea healthy?

Decaf tea is a healthy alternative to regular tea for individuals looking to reduce their caffeine intake. Decaffeinated teas undergo a process where the caffeine content is removed, resulting in lower levels of caffeine while maintaining the beneficial antioxidants and other compounds found in tea. These antioxidants can help reduce inflammation, improve heart health, and boost the immune system. However, it is important to note that decaf teas may still contain trace amounts of caffeine, so those who are highly sensitive to caffeine should consume with caution. Overall, decaf tea can be a good option for individuals looking to enjoy the health benefits of tea without the stimulating effects of caffeine.

How do you make decaf tea?

To make decaf tea, start by boiling water in a kettle or pot. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove it from heat and allow it to cool slightly for about 1-2 minutes. Next, place your loose decaf tea leaves into a teapot or mug. Pour the hot water over the leaves, ensuring that they are fully submerged in the water. Cover the teapot or mug with a lid or saucer to steep for the recommended time (usually 3-5 minutes). After steeping, strain out the leaves and enjoy your freshly brewed decaf tea. You can add sweeteners, milk, lemon, or any other desired flavourings to customize your decaf tea to your liking.
