Origin: India
Steeping
Use 1 teaspoon per 8 oz. cup. Steep at 212º F for 4 minutes.
Caffeine content: Approximately 40-70 mg per 8 oz. cup.
On average, an 8-ounce cup of black tea contains approximately 14-80 mg of caffeine. However, some types of black tea may have higher caffeine levels, up to 90 mg per 8-ounce cup. When you steep tea for a longer period, more caffeine is typically extracted from the tea leaves, resulting in a higher caffeine content in the brewed tea. This is because caffeine is water-soluble and leaches out of the leaves over time. So, longer steeping times usually mean stronger and more caffeinated tea.
