73mm In-Cup Tea Vending Drinks

Tea cups made for compatible 73mm in-cup vending systems

73mm in-cup tea drinks are a straightforward way to offer hot drinks where a full kitchen setup is not available or where you want to keep vending easy to manage. Each pre-filled cup holds the drink ingredients, so there are no loose tea bags, whitener or sugar to load into separate machine canisters. In a compatible in-cup machine, the cup is dispensed and hot water is added; the cups can also be used with hot water from a kettle.

The range includes familiar PG Tips and Own Brand options, with everyday white tea, white tea with sugar and instant lemon tea available. It is an easy format to keep stocked in staff break areas, customer-facing spaces and managed vending locations.

Tea choices in this range

• PG Tips Tagged Tea White – a pre-filled cup with tea and the milk element already included.
• PG Tips Tagged Tea White With Sugar – a more complete prepared tea option, with sugar included in the cup.
• Instant Lemon Tea – a lighter, fruitier alternative to standard tea for people who want a different hot drink choice.

Offering standard tea alongside lemon tea can give your users a little more choice without introducing separate loose ingredients. These cups also sit well with 73mm in-cup coffee, hot chocolate and soup cups when you need a broader vending menu.

Pack sizes for everyday replenishment

Most products in this collection are supplied in 25-cup sleeves or 300-cup cases. Sleeves are handy for lower-use staff rooms, receptions and smaller sites where you do not need to hold a large quantity. Full cases make more sense for busy workplaces, factory break areas and vending operators topping up several machines or following regular refill routes.

Because the ingredients are portioned in each cup, stock handling is simpler for the person maintaining the machine. There is less need to manage separate tea, whitener and sugar supplies, which can help keep day-to-day refills organised.

Check cup compatibility before ordering

The key point is cup diameter. These are 73mm in-cup tea drinks, but vending machines do not all use the same cup size or loading arrangement. Check that your machine accepts 73mm cups and review its cup-loading requirements before ordering, especially when replacing another in-cup format or changing from a different diameter.

Correct compatibility matters for reliable dispensing. If you manage several sites, it is worth checking each machine type before choosing sleeves or cases for your route.

Where 73mm tea cups are commonly used

Factories, warehouses and workshops

Pre-filled tea cups keep hot drinks simple during busy shifts in production areas, warehouses, garages, trade counters, depots and workshop break rooms. Staff can have a quick tea without relying on a full kitchen or a loose-ingredient vending setup.

Offices, showrooms and waiting areas

PG Tips white tea, tea with sugar and lemon tea give staff, visitors and customers familiar drink choices in offices, staff rooms, reception areas, showrooms and waiting rooms.

Managed vending and public sites

For vending operators, 25-cup sleeves and 300-cup cases make it easier to hold stock for compatible 73mm machines across managed locations. Tea cup drinks can also be a good addition to self-serve areas in sports clubs, leisure centres and community buildings.

Complete your vending and staff-area order

When replenishing tea cups, you may also want to order in-cup coffee, hot chocolate and soup, along with vending machine cleaning products. Stirrers, sugar portions, cold drinks, crisps, biscuits and workplace snacks can help keep a vending point or break area ready for day-to-day use.
