    There should be a "it depends" option.  I frequently drink thinks after they get cold but am less likely to do that with a regular cuppa tea than a coffee.  Cold coffee is perfectly acceptable and my OH actually saves his coffee when it goes cold to make an iced coffee.

    Proper tea with milk goes a bit off when cold.  But I also frequently drink herbal tea and those are great when cold so no problem - sometimes finishing them a couple of hours after they've been made.  
    That's an oxymoron!

    So is microwaved tea. 
    It's honestly fine if it's reheated in the nuclear oven.
  • I'm 58 and this has never happened to me. And I don't have a fancy mug.
  • I quite enjoy cold tea more so in the warmer months but will neck it anytime.

    Tea and coffee have to be hot IMO or not worth drinking. It's why microwaves were invented ;)
