Best Answer

To remove caffeine from tea leaves under normal circumstances, it is best advised to steep the leaves for a short interval (say one minute) and discard the liquor. It is then advised to steep the leaves as one would normally do for that particular tea.

This method may be successfully employed to diminish the caffeine level in tea.

You can pour boiling water over loose-leaf tea leaves to remove the caffeine naturally. Discard the tea and use the same leaves to make a second cup, with less caffeine than the first. Loose-leaf tea leaves can be used more than once.

Does lapsang louchong have caffeine in it?

Yes, Lapsang Souchong, a black tea characterized by its smoky aroma, which comes from drying the leaves over pine smoke, does contain caffeine. However, because it is a souchong, meaning that it is made from larger, more mature leaves of the tea plant, it tends to be significantly lower in caffeine than the typical grades of black tea (like orange pekoe, and most other black teas) which are made from the bud and leaves closer to the bud, which are higher in caffeine.

How caffeine is produced?

Caffeine is found in its pure state only after being synthesized in a lab or extracted from certain plant or animal cells. Most commercially made caffeine is produced by decaffeination of coffee beans, although there are many other sources. Synthetic caffeine can be manufactured in a lab, but the process is commercially impractical.
