Microwaves

Is it actually possible to heat up a drink in a microwave and how do you do it?

What kind of drink?

You can heat drinks (refering to water for tea or coffee, hot cocoa maybe).... they must be in microwave safe mugs and I wouldn't fill them up to the top as they will boil over.

It doesnt take much time either .. only a minute or two.

Hope that helps.

Kind of... I tried doing a mug of chocolate, because I'd seen it done before. It boiled right over... I was thinking that would happen if I put it in for longer... but it was only a few seconds. I've also blown up some tuna bake I was doing!

I thought microwaves were supposed to be easy! Never mind!

Thanks now

Well now... At least ya didnt catch it on fire!

Mine caught fire once and I had to throw it out...

LMAO ... my daughter (9yr) tried to make ramen noodles without the water...noodle block caught fire.

Nothing is ever as easy as it seems!

I've been worried about that... I was a bit surprised at the tuna bake, I think it may have been something in the combination of oil and water that did it... so why can I do lasagne but not tuna bake? Bizarre.

Yes u can, i'm the lazy type so everything gets nuked. Limit time for really hot cuppa is three minutes for a large coffee cup. Makes an awesome mochacino. oops think i spelt that right lol

You can do tuna bake. Just cover dish with cling film or as we call it glad wrap.
