Sometimes we travel with the gas on although we always obey any signs to have no naked flame or turn off gas cylinders. Having the gas on means we can have use the van's heating if we wish - the gas system is designed to allow this safely in modern motorhomes.
My wife will often take a drink in a thermal mug and uses one of the van's cup holders. I am the driver and do not. If I want a hot drink, we stop and brew up.

Boil a kettle before moving out and fill a flask with hot water to make cups of coffee on the journey and always carry a bottle of cold water in the cab for a drink when driving. The latter is especially necessary in warm climates.
We never travel with the gas on.

I carry a portable gas stove like this:
I use it mainly for cooking in the awning, but it's dead handy for a quick brew as well and a handy backup in case of gas running out or a fault with the hob too. There are many similar ones about, they are self igniting and 'uncouple' the bottle when you pack away so are very safe and easy to use.
