"Want to stay sharp at work? Down a cup of Earl Grey. 'Studies show that drinking two to four cups of tea increases alertness and enhances your ability to perform mental tasks,' explains Dough Balentine, PH.D., director of nutrition sciences at the Unilever Health Institute. This is due to the combination of caffeine and theanine, an amino acid found in green and black teas."

I could only have one. Black tea jacks me up way worse than coffee.
Yeah, I don't know that I could drink that much either...maybe green tea but definitely not black tea. One cup of Chai spiced black tea by Stash in the morning and I am zinging more than coffee.
