    I think flavored ones might not be proper tea for say, but more
    have plants and others to give flavor to the hot water...

    Pro plus are these little caffiene tablet things you can buy, although i don't think they work that great to be honest, but each to their own :p

    Leave it in for 3-5 mins, or until it's diffused and looks "ready".

    I love Peppermint Tea :yum: , though caffeine is good too...

    It'll say on the packet- herbal teas vary quite a bit from brand to brand.

    ProPlus is a brand of caffiene tablet.

    Its because herbal 'teas' are not Tea in the proper sense of the word, they are a hot drink, not Tea, which is made from the tea plant which has caffine. Unless its red bush tea which isnt caffinated.
