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.

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

Tiny bit of lemon fixes that pretty well.
