<h2>How Many Cups of Tea Are in 100g of Loose Leaf Tea?</h2>

<p>A 100g pouch of loose leaf tea can typically make between 40 and 60 cups, depending on how much tea you use per cup and the type of tea.</p>

<h3>General Guide</h3>
<p>As a standard measure, one teaspoon of loose leaf tea (around 2–2.5g) is used per cup (200–250ml of water). Based on this, a 100g pouch will usually produce around 40–50 cups of tea.</p>

<h3>Factors That Affect Cup Count</h3>
<p>The number of cups you get from 100g can vary depending on the tea and how it is brewed.</p>

<p><strong>Leaf size:</strong> Larger leaves take up more space but may weigh less, while finer teas are denser and can produce more cups per gram.</p>

<p><strong>Strength preference:</strong> Using more tea per cup will reduce the total number of cups, while using slightly less will increase it.</p>

<p><strong>Re-steeping:</strong> Some loose leaf teas, particularly larger leaf varieties, can be infused more than once, increasing the total number of cups.</p>

<h3>Typical Yield</h3>
<p>As a simple guide:</p>

<p>• Stronger brew: around 40 cups<br>
• Standard brew: around 45–50 cups<br>
• Lighter brew: up to 60 cups</p>
