L-Theanine is amazing stuff, it basically cuts a lot of the side effects away from caffeine and increases the positive effects of caffeine to boot.
To get useful amounts of it I just take it separately whenever I consume a caffeinated beverage. 250mg-500mg suffices (technically you can dose it in relationship to how much caffeine you are dosing, but since there are no side effects to taking too much l-theanine, I just take 2 and call it good)

I usually dose about 200mg starting the day now, then basically based on the amount of Tea I consume throughout the day (and thus caffeine) dose about 200-400mg more right after diner along with a brew.
