If you're planning on drinking a cup of tea before your cholesterol blood test, you might have to do so the night before your appointment -- or wait until afterward. Total cholesterol may be tested as part of a larger lipid profile, which assesses individual blood cholesterol components that help to reveal your risk for Heart disease. Your doctor's diagnostic methods and the testing laboratory's protocols will determine whether you need to forego tea and other foods and drinks prior to giving your blood sample.

Tea itself cannot as cholesterol is only present in animal products.

However if you add lots of milk or cream to your tea it might, as they are animal products.
