I tried to make this photo look "warm" by using lights to create specific shadows, by placing the cup on wood, by using an old fashioned cup, by not having the tea stirred, and by using an old-fashioned cup. I'm hoping for the cup by the fireplace look :)

I guess I was trying too hard to make the "Starbuck does tea" idea work, as in it looks like coffee, but this is the reincarnation of tea! Oh well. Thanks for all of the super helpful comments. I appreciate them so very much!
Selling the tea or the Starbucks coffee? If it's the Starbucks coffee, the substance doesn't seem to resemble coffee too well with it's cyrstalized look. If it's tea, I don't think having it in a Starbucks cup works too well.
Nice tones, but I'm not sure about the composition. The edge of the mug draws the eye, but is out of focus, and the black / woodgrain background makes it feel lopsided to me.
The title is the only thing that indicates this is advertising tea. From the picture, I would guess it was an advertisement for Starbucks, but then again, it doesn't seem to be inviting me to buy anything from them. It's just a picture of a cup. It's a very *nice* picture of a cup though :) I love the swirly patterns in the tea.
Tea... how refreshing! I need something to wash down all this Absolut I have been drinking in this challenge! I like this photo. I think I would like to see the bottom of the cup, but that's just me thinking out loud... Good work!
I love Chai but we don't see that here. Must be a good ad the title is misleading!! We see something in the cup but we don't know it's chai tea. I do like the perspective also it's a clean, clear shot. Fine work here.
