Lipton Black Tea Bags, Decaffeinated (50 Count) is a staple, mass-market retail product designed for tea drinkers who want the classic, full-bodied taste of traditional black tea without the caffeine jitters.
It features Lipton’s signature "Orange Pekoe and Pekoe Cut" black tea blend, sourced primarily from certified sustainable farms in regions like Malawi.
Key Product Features
- Natural Decaffeination Process: Lipton uses a natural decaffeination method that strips away the caffeine molecules while preserving the tea's natural flavonoids (antioxidants) and classic, clean aroma. It is roughly 99.5% caffeine-free.
- Foil-Wrapped Freshness: The 50-count box is typically structured as a secure lock-box. Inside, the paper tea bags are divided into two foil-wrapped trays of 25 to lock in flavor and prevent the leaves from absorbing outside pantry odors.
- Sustainability: The tea is 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified, meaning it supports eco-conscious farming practices and fair conditions for workers.
- Nutritional Stats: 0 calories, 0g sugar, 0g fat, and 0 carbs per serving (when consumed unsweetened).
Flavor & Preparation
The flavor profile is smooth, mild, and highly predictable—free of the heavy, bitter astringency found in lower-grade un-decaffeinated black teas. It is formulated to be highly versatile for both hot and cold brewing.
To Brew a Hot Cup:
- Pour 8 fl oz of boiling water directly over 1 tea bag. (Do not microwave the tea bag itself due to the tiny metal staple).
- Let it steep for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove the bag, then add milk, lemon, or sugar to taste.
To Brew a Quick Pitcher of Iced Tea:
- Steep 4 decaf tea bags in 4 cups (1 quart) of boiling water for 3 minutes.
- Remove the bags and sweeten the hot concentrate while it's warm if desired.
- Pour in an additional 3 quarts of cold water and add plenty of ice cubes to instantly chill the blend.
