Drinking tea with a straws a pretty good idea to help slowdown staining, but won't the heat from the tea melt a bit of the straw?
Depending on the type of tea, like green tea and white tea, they are supposed to be "brewed" (or "made") with water at around 70C which isn't THAT hot, at least the straw shouldn't melt at that temperature. HOWEVER, if you get tea at chains like Starbucks or Tim Horton's (not sure what the European/Australia equivalent to that is), they just give you boiling hot water with a tea bag so that the color comes out quickly, resulting in richly-coloured but flavourless tea.
^what older people drink milk... it's a universal thang, tea through a straw, now that is CUTE haha...
yeah i love chinese tea.. i'd definitely choose it over coffee or other drinks if it was less troublesome to prepare =) hahh..
How anyone finds Coffee a NICE drink is beyond me. Do bear in my Ice Milk Coffee is no longer coffee. The dominant flavours in that drink are sugar and condensed milk (again a bulk of sugar). Drink neat coffee and neat tea and then tell me with a straight face you prefer the coffee flavour.
You just have to dump the instant stuff and get real Columbian. And not from Starbucks, mind you, since they are apted at finding beans with the least possible favour.
