I am planning on hiking the Teton Crest Trail in summer and wanted to know if it is safe to steep/make some tea at night before bed; after the kitchen and food has been put away. It would be great to put the hot water bottle in my sleeping bag as a warmer; then I can drink the tea in the morning (I prefer cold tea). Not sure if the bears would smell it and especially don't want the smell coming from between my legs!

Also, what is the protocol for drinking tea at night?

Thanks!
