aimee,
jasmine tea is just a variety of black tea. it does have some caffeine, and is therefore OK in moderation but not too much. i generally counsel my patients to avoid caffeine in the first trimester (the only research that links caffeine with pregnancy problems links it with first trimester miscarriage) and again in the final few weeks, to avoid a cranky baby who is addicted to caffeine. makes quite a difference in personality those early days. in between, a little here and there is really fine.
