Tea is very mildly acidic, more acidic than water or milk, but less acidic than coffee, most fruit juices, and much less acidic than most soft drinks (sodas), energy drinks, and sports drinks.

The acidity of tea is within the normal range for mild food and drinks, and poses no health risks.

Mostly it is acidic,due to lemon juice some put in it. Other than that,varies from types of tea

yes tea is acidic because of its content

acid

Readings suggest that while lemon is acidic, after digestion it appears to be alkaline (many foods and drinks undergo a transition after digestion, since we're talking about digestive breakdown and metabolic changes as opposed to the starting state). Green tea and Oolong tea are often listed as alkaline, black tea as acidic, in terms of post-digestion impact. Adding lemon to green tea is likely to result in a very alkalizing drink in terms of impact on blood after digestion, based on charts that indicate post-digestion state.

Tea is slightly acidic due to its polyphenol content. However, it is considered to be a weak acid, so it is generally well-tolerated by most individuals.

Is japan green tea acidic or alkaline?

Japanese green tea, like most green tea, is mildly acidic. Keep in mind that most food and drink is also mildly acidic, so relative to many common foods and drink (such as fruit juice), green tea tends more towards the alkaline side, but it is still more acidic than milk or water. The acidity will be greatest if you brew the tea with a greater leaf to water ratio, and if you use longer steeping time, as this leads to greater concentrations of organic compounds in the water. The level of acidity in tea is not a matter of concern; it is within the normal range for food and drink and poses no health risks.
