Tea consists of the processed leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant. Camellia sinensis is an evergreen shrub indigenous to Southeast Asia that thrives in subtropic and highland tropic regions.

How much caffeine is in tea?

The "tea plant", Camellia Sinensis, naturally has caffeine in its leaves. The amount of caffeine that is transferred from that leaf into your cup depends on many things: age of leaf, method of manufacture, production techniques, steeping time, and water temperature used during steeping. Because of these numerous variables, no one can tell you the exact amount of caffeine in your cup unless a caffeine counter is used immediately before you drink.
