A lovely mug for green tea

I am always in search of nice cups and mugs for green tea, and this latte mug from Crate&Barrel fits the bill in many ways—it's nicely shaped, fits naturally in the hand, and holds a nice amount of tea (20 ounces).


And with an in-mug tea infuser like this one, the mug also doubles as a teapot.


One caveat about the mug, however—its narrow base makes it a bit too easy to knock over, say, while reaching for your tea without taking your eyes off your computer monitor (as yours truly has done).


Still, isn't it a beautiful mug—especially with the Mellow Monk logo on it?



Isn't she lovely? Unfortunately, she exists only in Photoshop.

Lovely indeed!

This is what I have been drinking out of lately:

I would love to add this one to my collection! Too bad green tea is not so tasty through photoshop.

That is a wonderful mug indeed! Thanks for sharing.

I wish I could help you add my virtual mug to your actual collection, if I could only find a printer who did work like that.

How cute!! I believe you'll have a real one with your logo very soon.
