I usually find that black sugarless tea keeps well in a flask but add milk and it starts to smell a bit funny after a while. I would brew the tea and keep it in the flask with the milk kept in a seperate container (an empty used water bottle is good).
Hope this helps.

Yes it does, in the the thermos I take to work my peppermint tea keep hot for 2 hours and then luke water for 3 hours, which is good. Peppermint tea which has no milk in stays hot for up to 3 hours and luke warm for 4.
However in Argos my friend brought a thermos flask that keeps tea hot for up to 12 hours, and luke warm for a long period of time, its brilliant it cost her about £20

In short - yes! Tea will be absolutley fine in a flask for a few hours, I do this almost every day. However, it does not smell/taste quite the same as a fresh cup. A guy I work with brings a flask of hot water then makes his tea fresh throughout the day, but I can never be bothered to do this. It just depends how you like it I guess!

Yes, it does. You can also put in the thermos boiling water and add the tea whenever you need to have it, (boiling water can be maintained at a high temperature in a thermos for at least two hours).

Tea could actually probably sit out for a day or so before it got bad. So in a thermos it should last a long time.

coffee keeps better in a thermos. i think tea tastes a bit funny when its been in a flask. make sure you store your flask without the lid on and that will stop it smelling funny and making the tea taste funnier that it would anyway x

Best thing is to just put boiling water in your flask and when you want a drink, just pour onto a teabag. Otherwise the milk in the tea will give a sour smell to your flask.

Yes it should be fine for a couple of hours - never as nice a fresh tea though.

It will be fine for a few hours, just dont put it in after a pongy soup coz it may taint the flavour even if you have washed it out well
