on the go i use a 16oz glass travel thermos. when i’m drinking tea on my own at home i use a 16 oz mug, but when i have friends over i really like to use my tiny bubble cups which are i think 6oz. it’s nice to be able to try a bunch of different teas over an afternoon and the 6 oz cups feel so nice in my hand.

I enjoy all of my drinks in the one true size. American. AKA, as big as you can produce.

i always forget to specify size when ordering coffee because i forget there are sizes other than “as big as you can make it”

I would say 12 oz or larger. Also, it depends if the travel cup will keep the temperature for long or not. If the tea will get cold fast then a smaller cup because I’d rather make new tea than reheat cold tea.

I’m not sure if you’ll be selling tumblers, and this is just a crazy futuristic wish, but I would love to have a 8-12oz double walled glass tumbler with an infusion top. v_v

Haha, so I am replying late but,

1) Any multiple of 8, for the measurement reasons already listed.
2) At least 16! Particularly if I’m drinking tea cold, I could be sipping that all day, and my 12oz mug runs out too fast.

I have 16 and 24. Both are good, but 24 is the best. I like to take a big container to work. Currently, I steep it at home and put it in my 24 oz Tervis brand BPA free water bottle which is double walled and therefore maintains hot or cold well, and it’s very leak proof.
