Ironman verdict
4 recipes use Empty cup, including Cup of hot water, Cup of milky tea and Cup of tea (nettle). Empty cup is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 1 coins, which is 1 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
