Green Tea Caffeine 

  Green tea does contain caffeine. But the amount of caffeine contained within a cup is much lower than that of comparative drinks. For example a can of coca cola has twice the amount of caffeine than a cup of green tea does. Not only this but the manner in which tea is produced sets it apart from other types of tea, such as the traditional cup of English black tea. With black tea the leaves are prepared through a process of fermentation. However green tea leaves are steamed. The difference is the processed means that the leaves are not oxidised. Hence the green tea leaves retain all of their nutritional valu.

 Green tea caffeine content depends largely on the size and type of the tea leaf used. That is, the larger the leaf, the less caffeine. Also, the more steeping, the less caffeine you have.

 The less green tea you use, the less caffeine content it has. The shape and size of your brewing vessel will also influence caffeine content, that is, the larger thea area of circulation, the more caffeine will be drawn from the green tea leaves.Leaves of green tea plants grown under shade will develop more caffeine in them than those grown in the open.
