Green tea contains L-theanine — about 5–40 mg per cup, depending on the variety and brewing strength.
Why tea alone often isn't enough
The cognitive-performance research on L-theanine + caffeine typically uses 100–200 mg L-theanine in the dose. Reaching that from green tea alone means drinking 4–10 cups — along with a lot of caffeine and a lot of bathroom trips.
Why drinking tea is still good
It's a ritual. The act of brewing and drinking matters for state-shift, separately from the chemistry. Many people pair morning tea with focus drops for the ritual layer plus the dose-controlled layer.
