cold cups of tea

[Dee Sa]

Is it just me, I make myself a nice cuppa then put it down somewhere and forget about it and remember when its stone cold, done it twice already this morning !

I reckon the worst is when enjoying the cuppa and you've finished it. Then you pick up the mug/cup again only to discover it's been drunk.

having 2 young kids i never have a hot cup of tea but as i dont take milk sometimes cold tea can be refreshing

Just bung it in the microwave. Experiment with times to get it hot but not boiled (50 seconds or so for a stone cold mug in my micro).

It works fine as long as you are using skimmed or semi-skimmed milk.

I made my boss a cuppa when he came in at about 10am yesterday morning. He forgot about it and it was still on his desk at 3pm so he just gave it a ping in the microwave. Seemed a bit gross to me.

Yes, I do that all the time at work. And yesterday I surpassed myself by going downstairs to make a cup of tea, not realising the mug I was holding was half full of cold tea, so leaving a trail of tea behind me and all down my skirt.

Costco do an insulated mug, china inside, stainless steel outside, with a removable lid, quite cheap, too. It will keep tea hot and drinkable for about 45 minutes, and seems indestructible.

There are double walled china tall cups around, too

I often microwave cold tea but not coffee I don't often leave that though...
