How to Decaffeinate Tea in a Pinch

Caffeine occurs naturally in tea leaves. China teas generally have less caffeine than the robust India teas that are used in breakfast blends. But some tea drinkers prefer their tea with no caffeine at all. If you run out of your favorite decaffeinated blend, follow these steps to remove caffeine from traditional tea.

  • Pour water just off the boil over the tea leaves or tea bag and let them brew for 30 seconds. (Most of the caffeine is released in the first 30 seconds.)

  • Discard the liquid, keeping the tea leaves or tea bag.

  • Add more boiling water to the tea leaves or tea bag and brew for the recommended time.
