The tea contains natural caffeine from the green tea leaves, which works together with polyphenols to provide a smoother stimulant effect than coffee or black tea. For most people this means a gentle alertness that can be useful in the morning or during study and work periods. Because the amount is modest, many find it acceptable earlier in the day, but those who are sensitive to caffeine or have trouble sleeping should avoid drinking it after mid‑afternoon. The hawthorn component does not offset the caffeine, so the overall stimulant level remains similar to that of a standard green tea. If you need a calming beverage later in the day, consider switching to a caffeine‑free herbal tea or plain water with a slice of fruit. Always listen to your body’s response; if you notice jitteriness or difficulty sleeping, move future servings earlier in the day.
