can these be used for stirring hot beverages like coffee or tea?

They're paper so use, you could stir hot beverages. BUT, I would imagine it would tend to 'wilt' them.

No I had previously used these to stir chocolate syrup into milk and they became extremely flimsy. I would assume they would do the same if not almost desenegrate with a hot beverage.

I have never tried, but I do not think that the straw would be able to hold its shape in hot beverages (due to paper).

you can stir it but if you leave the straw in the hot beverage, it does get all flimsy. They did hold up good in soda!!

I wouldn't use them for boiling hot items...they do go through the dishwasher safely and leave no tastes

I have used mine for hot drinks but mostly to make hot tea then add ice and although I usually hand wash them I have put in the dishwasher once in a while

I have never tried this, but I do wash them in hot water and they are fine. I would say it would be safe as long as you run them under hot water first and be sure to get the inside and outside equally hot. I love them for cold drinks, because they don't sweat, and they keep the drink cold for a long time. I guess they must keep hot drinks warm for quite some time, too.

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.

i never tried to use them in iced coffee. if the coffee is just warm i assume that they would work ok. i don't know about putting them into hot liquid!

I don't know about coffee. I only used this item to mix hot chocolate and power drinks. This is not a blender, just a mixer.

I normally drink tea in a cup or mug but I agree that they are quite sturdy and withstand the hot dishwasher, so I wouldn't be afraid to try it. Your hand will get hot unless you have a cozy over the glass.

Yes I use these for coffee and hot tea daily. Wonderful mugs! I am glad I bought them.

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.

Sorry, I've never used them with hot drinks. I have the mug & the straw is excellent when you're working out & need a quick big sip of water!

Yes. I use the Ekobrew Stainless Steel Reusable Cup to brew loose tea, homemade cocoa and my own ground coffee blends. Add your blend, brew, rinse and repeat for the next cup.

I think they are typically used for cold beverages. I haven't tried these with hot beverages, but mugs I had years ago made the handles too hot to handle.

These are made of tempered glass, so yes - they're fine for hot beverages. However, since you have no handle, the glass will be pretty hot.

If you add the powder while it's already stirring, maybe....but I wouldn't recommend it for long term hot chocolate use. I don't have first-hand experience since I dint drink hot chocolate but you don't want to gunk up the stirrers. Hope that helps!

No! One of your previous answers said yes but after having break right after using in the microwave I checked Teavana's website and they say no. These areally great glasses for tea or coffee. They look great and having nice and are well balanced. But don't use them in the microwave.

Absolutely, I use them for tea, coffee, and coco. The handle stays cool and the drink stays hot.
