The commercial process for removing caffeine from tea is fairly complex, however, according to my Chinese medicine doctor, if you pour boiling water over your tea (leaves or bagged) leave it for 20 - 30 seconds, pour out the "first" steep and re-fill your cup/pot with more boiling water. The resultant tea will be greatly reduced in its caffeine content.

Why is it necessary to use boiling water to extract the caffeine from the tea leaves?

Boiling water is necessary to extract caffeine from tea leaves because the high temperature helps to dissolve the caffeine and other soluble compounds more effectively. The heat increases the rate of diffusion, allowing the caffeine to move from the leaves into the water. Additionally, boiling water can also extract flavors and aromas that contribute to the overall taste of the tea. Using cooler water may result in a weaker brew with less caffeine and flavor.
