Fortunately, there are some easy methods for removing stains from sports bras that may have been caused by coffee and tea. Here's what you need to do:

  • Start by gently rinsing the stained area with cold water to try to remove any loose particles. Do not rub the stain.
  • Make a paste by combining a small amount of water with a tablespoon of baking soda. Gently rub paste into the stain with a soft cloth.
  • Allow the paste to sit on the stain for 15 to 30 minutes before washing the garment with laundry detergent.
  • Rinse and then air-dry the garment.

You may need to repeat these steps multiple times until the stain has completely disappeared. If you have a machine-washable sports bra, you can add 1/2 cup of white vinegar to the wash cycle in order to help loosen the stain.

It's important to remember that fabric softeners, bleach, and ammonia should be avoided when cleaning a garment with coffee and tea stains, as these products can set the stain instead of removing it.

Now you know how to get coffee and tea stains out of your sports bra so you can wear it with confidence. Good luck!
