Does mountain dew taste better than black tea? Yes. Does it also cost 30 times as much to get the caffeine fix? Yes. (lemmy.world)

If you are drinking tea for the caffeine content it's best to steep the bag for as long as possible, iirc it takes about 15 minutes for ~95% of the caffeine to extract. One teabag usually has 60-80mg of caffeine so equivalent to one cup of instant coffee.

It's also gonna be super bitter at this point.

That's why you load it with a half cup of sugar.

Or just slam it like you're doing a Jager Bomb

Tiny bit of lemon fixes that pretty well.
