Explanation :
The will be used before Tea because – Here, we are talking about a particular tea, followed by a Relative Pronoun (which). The sentence can also be written as –
The tea I am drinking is hot (tea-definite) Look at the examples given below : The flowers in her garden are beautiful. (Definite – the ones in her garden)
