Did you know you can remove almost 80% of the caffeine just by discarding the first brew of just 2-3 minutes?
This is what you have to do to enjoy your home made decaffeinated tea:
- Add hot water to loose leaves and steep for 2-3 minutes.
- Discard the liquid. This first brew contains most of the caffeine of the tea.
- Add water to your teapot and let steep for 2-3 minutes and drink that blend that has only small amounts of caffeine.
It still has all those health benefits that we value in teas especially if it’s a green tea. You can find over 20 different kinds of only green tea (and over 200 kinds of other teas such as black, oolong, pu-erh and white) so you can lose weight by sipping huge variety of teas.
