Can you use it for tea to drink out of i mean thats what this teacup is for right?

No you cannot drink out of it this is a decorative plant holder. There is a hole in the bottom of the cup for water drainage.

Are you serious? It's for plants. Hole in the bottom of cup for water overflow and is the size of a small mixing bowl, so that would be one ginormous cup of tea!

No I don't drink out of the teacup. It is too large. I put plants in it. It looks pretty on my patio.

A tea 'pot' is a vessel used to SERVE tea, a tea 'kettle' is a vessel you put on the stove to heat water for making tea. If you, indeed mean to use this to serve tea, then yes you can use it for that. It does have the wire mesh press mechanism inside, which is not ideal for serving. You should not, however, put this French press on your stove as it would likely become damaged.

Absolutely. You could put loose tea or another hot beverage in there. It's a removable infuser, although having quickly tried it, the lid doesn't snap in tightly without the infuser there. It sits loosely on top, but that shouldn't be a problem.

You could, but the actual teacups themselves are much too small to be practical for anything other than espresso.

Not really, I used it for some powdered tea and somehow the top stopped working? Like, I can't drink out of the straw. (The whole reason I brought it, lol) Just make sure you don't put anything with fine grains/granules. So water, regular tea, and coffee would work.

It would bot be the most efficient way. It's made for a cup. Doesnt hold enough tea for a thermos.

I don't see why not. I use it as a tea pitcher & I always pour the freshly brewed (and very hot) tea into it.

I haven't tried it with tea but I think the smaller holed strainer side of the lid would keep most of the tea leaves out of your cup. Sorry that I can't give you a better answer but while I am a tea drinker I use my tea pot.

That is a great idea. It is a vacuum container and will work for anything that requires a vacuum for storage....however if the tea is high moisture it may mold.

You can drink from the cup. The infuser actually lifts up inside so you don't have to have super strong tea. Works as a tea travel mug.

You can drink from the cup...it has an opening that you can open and close. I like it!

You can but I don't think drinking hot liquids would be a good idea because the chemicals might leach out, plus it smells horrible when heated . I would not recommend it for drinking mugs only for decorative ones.

Don't drink anything with it. It's supposed to be a gift for show not to drink tea out of it. I'm sure you can, but it's something of beauty to look at.

I don't know why not.....although I am not a tea expert. This is a percolator and I think that tea is "steeped"....but it just seems that you could put the tea in the coffee grounds container and let the water boil and drain through it....?

You should be able to steep tea in it. Just to be careful fill the glass with warm/hot water before filling with boiling water, because the reason glass shatters is because the temperature difference between the glass and the water is too great. Like, if the glass is very cold and the water is boiling hot it will "shock" the glass. So, you heat it up a little to avoid shocking it. Hope that helps :) it's a high quality glass.

I have not used it for the purpose. The weave of the fabric looks like it could hold loose leave tea. But I think the tea might escape from the drawstring area.

You could, because the tea leaves are enclosed in the filter. The only downside to this tea maker is that the lid on the serving pot, does not detach for easier cleaning.
