Answers:
Most caffeine - any variety of black tea
best without sugar - white tea, because it is so subtle and mild!.
My personal favorite is "twig tea," made from the toasted stems and twigs of the tea plant!. Very nutty, earthy, deep, and almost no caffeine!. I gave up coffee and I don't miss it because of this tea!.
My advice for giving up soda: just stop drinking it!. Whenever you crave it, have some water!. The cravings will stop after 2 weeks!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

1) "A Department of Nutritional Services report provides the following ranges of caffeine content for a cup of tea made with loose leaves:
Black Tea: 23 - 110 mg
Oolong Tea: 12 - 55 mg
Green Tea: 8 - 36 mg
White Tea: 6 – 25 mg"
How can I lower the amount of caffeine in my cup!?
For those who are sensitive to caffeine, we recommend using a little less leaf and brewing your teas with slightly cooler water for a shorter period of time!. Green, white and lightly oxidized oolong teas are good choices, as they tend to benefit from lower water temperatures and shorter steeping times!.
Since nearly 80% of the caffeine will be extracted within 30 seconds of steeping, you can easily remove most of the caffeine in any tea by following these guidelines:
Steep the tea in hot water for 45 seconds!. Discard the liquid!. Then, add water to the leaves and brew for the amount of time that is appropriate for that particular tea!."

2) Usually herbal teas (ie!. peppermint, spearmint) and fruit teas (ie!. apricot, berry) require less sweetening than black teas!. Cinnamon (ground or stick form) provides a natural sweetener, an alternative to refined sugar or nutrasweet!.

I did the same thing and I like green tea and i brew it and I add some fresh ginger root or add some citrus and I don't use sugar so you might have to add some kind of sweetener(simple syrup is good )that's equal parts of sugar and water boiled together!. but I always like to try different teas!. I do also like the different varieties of Arizona teas!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
