Can they be used with hot drinks such as coffee, tea or cocoa?

I wouldn't recommend drinking them with anything that might burn your lips. The straws easily become the temperature of what you are drinking, so I'd be careful.

Do NOT use the Stainless Steel Straws on HOT drinks. They conduct cold and heat very well. If the drink is just warm they should work well. I also bought a Straw Cleaning Brush for easy cleaning of the stainless steel straw. To avoid using the brush, I will immediately rinse the straw running hot soapy water down it then rinsing with, as hot of water as I can stand. If you let the straw sit allowing the smoothing ingredients to harden inside the straw then the brush is essential to proper cleaning. --------------------------------------------------------------- I am on Twitter.com/@PoetPatriot Tweeting of Faith, Poetry, Inspirational & other Quotes, Conservative Politics, and occasional other subjects.

If the product says it is compatible I have a k60 and they work great they should work with a powder chocolate if it isn't too fine. But I don't drink hot chocolate. Just use it as a hot water trough these kcups.

Any brand, flavor, or specialty such as tea or hot cocoa, can be used as long as it's the standard K cup

Can't see any reason why not. Only question would be if you need to periodically stir the cocoa.....

I suppose you could, but I use the matching travel cup for coffee. I have never put anything hot in this. One reason to not use this for hot beverages is the size of the drink spout. It's pretty good size and I could see getting a big slug of a hot beverage and really burning yourself. I can say this works really well for my cold beverages so I would think would be fine for keeping hot beverages hot.

Yes. They're made of silicon, so you won't get a drink hot enough to melt them. They're not so thick that you won't be able to feel the liquid coming up, but not so thin that they're flimsy, either.

Yes! These mugs are great and now the rest of the family are using them for everything! I only meant to get one and I'm glad there are 6. We have an insta-hot faucet which is just under boiling the family uses for hot chocolate. I use boiling water from the teapot for my tea. My husband has been using these mugs for boiling soup. He claims the soup stays hotter. We're all happy with them! Glad to recommend.

not 100% sure, id think so. maybe not boiling hot. but coffee/hot chocolate/tea id think should be fine... I bought some for my wedding, plan on doing hot chocolate on a stick. so I sure hope it doesn't brake on anyone.

I do not think so. They are heavy paper and insulated. They are good for hot coffee and tea though.

They are metal.....so depending on how you would hold the handle would determine if it would be too hot to hold! I have not tried hot drinks...only use for cold! Not sure if something hot would make the copper change color?!? Sorry, do not have a definitive answer for you.

Yes, I believe they can.....the glass is very thick and I have made tea with boiling water straight from the kettle in them.

For hot cocoa just use the Keurig to get hot water and make cocoa like you would without a keurig. No reason to use a Ekobrew or k-cup or anything. All the cocoa k-cups are is just powered cocoa mix inside of a plastic cup.

I don't see why not. I use them in a machine that is supposed to be coffee grounds for an individual cup. It works just fine. (I have a pod machine in the bathroom at my house, and the coffee ground one at work, so I use at both).

Yes u would just put the cocoa in the mug itself or in the strainer..I use it for tea, coffee, cocoa hot water

Yes, they can. I even pour boiling water from the kettle straight into the glass and it never cracked. I've done it for coffee and tea and still no issues.

Yes, you can put the tea bags in the coffee filter and the water comes out really hot, so our be able to use it to make hot chocolate.

Yes. I use these mugs for heating up water in the microwave for instant coffee.
