While coffee and tea are both sources of caffeine, the amounts of caffeine in any single serving of these beverages varies significantly. An average serving of coffee contains the most caffeine, yet the same serving size of tea provides only 1/2 to 1/3 as much.(Ref.: Caffeine by The Institute of Food Technologists' Expert Panel on Food Safety & Nutrition.) One of the more confusing aspects of caffeine content is the fact that coffee contains less caffeine than tea when measured in its dry form. The caffeine content of a prepared cup of coffee is significantly higher than the caffeine content of a prepared cup of tea.

Coffee is much higher caffeine than any kind of tea for sure.

Their is more caffeine in TEA. I thought TEA was healthy for you but found out TEA is worse than soda and juice. I found this out when I was 7 months pregnant. I had to go to a gestational diabetes specialist so they can tell me what to eat and drink. We drink allot of TEA so it shocked me when it was told that it was bad for me.
