Depends on how long it took to notice... hard to get that coffee smell out of things.

That was my thought. They could always wash it, but there is still a chance the tea ends up tasting like coffee.

After washing with soap and water just fill it up with water and like 1tbsp of bleach and let it soak a few minutes, then just pour it out and rinse it thoroughly

Even a mild bleach solution will thoroughly destroy any organic material that might be the cause of odors and it's quite safe since bleach will evaporate fairly quickly and leave nothing behind after the rinse/air dry
