A packaged tea beverage contains from 0.06 to 0.5 wt % of non-polymer catechins and an artificial sweetener. The content weight ratio (A)/(B) of (A) non-epicatechins to (B) epicatechins is from 0.54 to 9.0. This beverage is a highly clear packaged tea beverage, which contains catechins at a high concentration, makes the deterioration of catechins suppressed, is suited for long-term drinking, hardly changes in external appearance even during storage at a high temperature, and allows catechins to remain stable over a long term even when filled and stored in a clear package.
