Kitchen gadget: Keep your tea hot

Like an electric kettle, it heats with heating coils and elements (Photo: ebay)

Any chance you are like me and cannot stand a lukewarm cup of coffee or tea? There are times I drink my coffee in a flash and other times I take my sweet time. When I am working, my coffee can stay forgotten for a while. Walking to and from the microwave to heat it takes too much time (call me lazy but when on a roll, a small distraction will break my momentum.)

I went shopping (online as is the current norm) and found the perfect gadget to keep my coffee hot and, best of all, while still in the cup. This beverage warmer is the easiest gadget to use. Like an electric kettle, it heats with heating coils and elements. However, you don't have to pour your tea out of the mug to warm it. This gadget has a warmer plate that is round with a flat top and is covered with thermal conductive material to allow heat to penetrate into your mug. A light on the device will turn on when you place your mug on it. Make sure the mug is not too light or your beverage will not keep warm. It's fancy, functional and water proof. It's the perfect gift item!
