What is "decaffeinated"?

Decaffeinated, also known as decaf, is a term used to describe a type of coffee or tea that has had most or all of its caffeine content removed. The process of decaffeination typically involves soaking the coffee beans or tea leaves in a solvent, such as water or a chemical compound, that selectively removes the caffeine while leaving the other compounds intact. Decaffeinated coffee and tea have become increasingly popular among individuals who are sensitive to caffeine or who want to limit their caffeine intake, as well as those who enjoy the taste of coffee or tea but prefer to consume it without the stimulating effects of caffeine. Decaffeinated coffee and tea are available in a variety of flavors and styles, and can be prepared using the same methods as regular coffee and tea.
