Q and A: Caffeine in Coffee vs. Tea?

thirstyfishinfo says:

Hey, I thought everyone knew this but here’s something to dispel any misunderstandings. I have never been able to get much of a buzz from tea but occasionally (like when someone makes really nasty tasting coffee or only decaf available) I will go for an Earl Grey Tea. I usually use two tea bags!

QUESTION:
I’ve heard that coffee has less caffeine than tea. Is that true?
ANSWER:
No, that isn’t true. Coffee actually has about twice as much caffeine as tea.
Different sources quote different figures for the amount of caffeine in tea and coffee, but in each case the proportion remains about the same, with coffee at twice the amount.
According to the Mayo Clinic, the figures are as follows:
Black tea, 8 ounces (oz.) - 47 millegrams
Black coffee 8 ounces (oz.) - 95 millegrams
