If you like your black tea strong we recommend increasing the amount of leaf per cup until you find the right strength, and follow the steeping instructions that are on the package for best results. Note that steeping the tea longer than the recommended time does not increase the strength of the cup, and too long of a steep can singe the leaves and result in a bitter and astringent cup.

On average, an 8-ounce cup of black tea contains approximately 14-70 mg of caffeine. However, some types of black tea can contain higher amounts of caffeine, up to 90 mg per 8-ounce cup. It's also worth noting that caffeine content can decrease if the tea is steeped for a longer period, and increase if the tea is brewed with hotter water for a shorter period.
