Guest guest Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 , just tease us! lol What brands of the tea do you like? Kris My experience with caffeine I used to drink two espresso a day made with organic coffee and loved them, but felt so much better after giving up coffee that I doubt I will go back to it. At first I had to really drag myself through the days and missed the caffeine, but after a few weeks I woke up feeling so much better -clear-headed and more energised, rather than waking up feeling a bit groggy and just hanging out for that first coffee. Also, two coffees wasn't really enough for me once I got used to it, and I felt that I needed two first thing in the morning, then another two spaced through the day, but didn't want to consume that much caffeine. Now I only drink tea that is naturally low in caffeine, and as long as I find the right tea, I enjoy the taste as much as the coffee. While I was drinking coffee, I didn't enjoy tea much because it seemed too weak and insipid in comparison, but once I weaned myself off coffee I found I was really enjoying tea again. I've only found two brands of the naturally low-caffeine tea that I really enjoy, but at least I can drink a few cups a day of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 >, just tease us! lol What brands of the tea do you like? > >Kris Sorry! The low-caffeine brands are Virgin Garden virgingarden@... and Planet Earth http://www.planettea.com.au/ Planet Earth is my favourite, but is quite a bit more expensive that Virgin Garden, so I usually buy the cheaper one. Planet Earth has lots of varieties, and I really like the English Breakfast tea in loose leaf. They also have it in teabags, but they don't label them as low-caffeine, so I don't know whether or not they are. Two other brands I really like are Clipper www.clipper-teas.com and Sip www.sip.com but I think these have higher levels of caffeine as I get that wide-energised feeling after drinking them, and noticed that my baby wasn't sleeping nearly as much, and she was solely breast-fed at the time. I've bought them all in Melbourne, Australia, and am not sure about their availability overseas, but the Clipper brand is from the U.K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
