It's rare but I do it occasionally.

I do recycle a lot of things and I drink 1-3 cups of tea a day both hot and cold. However I refuse to recycle tea bags. I have done it a couple of times in the past but the tea really tasted awful! :peace: :santa: :santa: :wave:

I am a tea person. I consume it, couple of times a day; however I never recycle it. I have also read, that it is not good for health to reuse tea bags. So, I don't prefer doing that.

I'm a big tea drinker. Anywhere from 2-4 cups a day. But I've never recycled tea bags. Some loose leaf teas come with a reusable bag. I use that for my loose leaf tea.

I drink tea more than any other drink and I never reuse my tea bags, the tea is just too weak after the first time around.

Most of the time they go right into the compost, great for the garden. But before I throw them I will sometimes put them in the freezer for a short time and then lay down and put them on my tired eyes, It feels so good and refreshing.

I don't recycle my tea bags. It would be too weak for me. I drink hot tea by opening the tea bag and putting the tea in the coffee filter. The coffee maker has a bold feature. I use this instead of two teabags in a cup. I like my tea strong.

I also use the bold feature to cut back on the amount of coffee grounds per cup. Makes the can of coffee last longer.
