Tea should not affect your system performance at all, it may be your imagination or something in software. Liquids into electronics is usually fine if it is given time to dry. The problems with keyboards is that the liquids can seep into areas which don't dry and it may short out contacts between metal traces.
Usually, there's nothing that can be done to repair such things unless you take your own system apart (there's nobody out there that does this as far as I know) and try to air-dry all the components yourself. I did this myself with a laptop, I took out the keyboard, dissassembled it, rinsed it with warm soapy water in my bathtub, let parts dry, etc. put it back together.
