Best Answer

Pure peppermint tea made of nothing but the peppermint plant is 100% caffeine-free. Similarly, all other plants in the mint family, including spearmint and many other herbs, are also caffeine-free.

However, sometimes peppermint or other mints can be blended with green or black tea, or other teas from the tea plant, Camellia sinensis, or with other caffeine-containing plants like Yerba mate. These blends can contain caffeine. Typically "Moroccan mint tea" is a blend of mint and green tea.

When buying mint tea, if you desire a caffeine-free herbal tea, check the ingredient list, and/or check for the term caffeine free on the label. "Herbal tea" usually implies, but does not guarantee that a blend is caffeine free--because Yerba mate and a few other plants are considered "herbal teas" but contain caffeine.

Peppermint tea does contain tannins but not as much as black, green or oolong tea does. Black tea has the highest amount of tannins among all the teas.

Does Tim Hortons peppermint tea have caffeine?

If you buy just pure peppermint tea there should not be any caffeine in it. Just to be safe you may want to look at the ingredients to make sure it does not have any type of other tea in it. However though sometimes peppermint teas have other things in them besides just peppermint leaves, it may also say something like bergmont essence but as long as it doesn't say Black Tea or Green Tea in the ingredients it should be fine. The only type of tea it should say in the ingredients is peppermint tea.

Does organic tea mean it doesn't have caffeine?

"Organic" refers to the way a plant ("tea" in this case) was cultivated, without pesticides commonly used in regular agriculture. It does not in any way refers to the amount of caffeine. If you are concerned about the amount of caffeine in tea, you may want to choose either a decaffeinated form of black or green tea, which may contain up to 3% of the regular form or, better yet, use herbal teas (there are many varieties) which do not contain any caffeine at all. For example: peppermint, chamomile, roibos, ginger, etc.
