Key Physiological EffectA single shot, countedOne 30 ml shot has about 64 mg of caffeine, less than the roughly 95 mg in a typical 8 oz cup of brewed coffee.A whole-leaf drinkBecause you drink the ground leaf rather than an infusion, a serving carries everything the leaf holds, caffeine included. About 66 mg was measured in a 2 g bowl in one study; expect roughly 40 to 90 mg depending on the powder.
