A member asked:

Is it possible for drinking tea with caffeine to raise blood pressure?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tea?: There's generally not much caffeine in tea and some tea has none at all, but it would depend on exactly what you're drinking. Regarding caffeine, it can raise your BP if you're not habituated to it. See: http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/high-blood-pressure/expert-answers/blood-pressure/faq-20058543
