How to Use a Printed Cork Coaster for Tea Lovers

Quick answer

Place your printed cork coaster under hot or iced tea cups to protect surfaces, and clean it gently with a damp cloth to keep the cork looking fresh.

How to use and care for your cork coaster

1. Place under your cup: Set the coaster on a flat, dry surface. Rest your hot or iced tea cup directly on the cork. The natural material will absorb condensation and protect your table. Avoid sliding the cup across the coaster to prevent cork wear.
2. Wipe spills immediately: If tea spills onto the coaster, blot it gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not rub vigorously, as this can push liquid deeper into the cork. Let the coaster air dry completely before using it again.
3. Clean periodically: Once a week, wipe the coaster with a barely damp cloth. For light stains, use a mild soap solution (a drop of dish soap in water) and dab the area. Rinse the cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue. Never submerge the coaster in water or put it in the dishwasher.
4. Store in a dry spot: After cleaning, let the coaster dry flat away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Store it in a cupboard or drawer when not in use to prevent dust buildup. If the coaster develops a musty smell, air it out for a few hours in a well-ventilated area.
