Does Diet Snapple Peach Iced Tea have caffeine?

[wurm]

I can't seem to find a definitive answer. No indication of caffeine (nor caffeine-free) on the bottle itself. Does anyone here know for sure?

It would tell you if it were decaffeinated. Tea, by default, has caffeine.

This is helpful, assuming you really want to know:

Actually Tea has a closely related substance called theophiline. It has been used for asthma because it opens up your airways. Chocolate contains theobromine, which is also somewhat different than caffeine. Both seem to have more cardiopulmonary effects than caffeine (chocolate sometimes makes people's "heart pound", etc.). I don't know why people continue to call these substances caffeine though, cuz they're not. kj.

I guess I was mistaken, as a quick read at wikipedia says tea often does contain regular old caffeine. kj.

Thanks, all. And thanks especially to billb. I thought I went through that entire Snapple site before I posted, but evidently I missed that page.

Nothing to see here...

I didn't exactly find it the first time through, either.
