Definately gotta straighten this up a bit. I think that the left tilt hurts this shot a lot in my opinion.
The lighting is really good. I like how it's lit from the back. I do think that the glass being shaped differently helps this shot as well. A plain straight glass just wouldn't look as good.
The colors are really good, and I think that because of the lighting, it really helps to bring out the colors in the tea.
The focus looks quite soft on the upper part of the glass, but looks much clearer on the very bottom (base) of the glass. I think I would prefer this had the upper part been in focus as well.
Overall, interesting abstract looking shot.

Kind of interesting lighting. I know everyone says "don't center your photos" but when it's the only object and it takes up the majority of the frame, it does tend to work better IMO -- a tight crop like this just looks unbalanced to me when the subject isn't centered.
I like your idea here, and the color. A big help would be to keep the glass vertical, the tilting to the left frame hurts this shot. The lighting from behind really makes it glow.
