My special tea corner, thanks to my fabulous Darling Daughter, Christine. One of the cool, really cool Christmas Gifts she got me was this Teavana Tea Set. There are the foil bags of loose tea which are pretty heavy duty foil packs for freshness and can sealed...like a zip lock. You get cute tea canisters, a special tea measuring spoon, a cool pouch of raw sugar cube. The bags and the canisters have the information you need to know about much tea to use and how long to steep it. You can write the name of the tea right on your canister, wash it off later if you store a different type of tea in it. This nice wire basket was from another Christmas gift from Stacie and Megan. Wanted you to know, all the goodies from it may now be gone; but the basket is being used.
In addition, you get these awesome tea pot. It holds a nice large mug size amount, and or two nice tea cups worth of tea. The diffuser is in the bottom of the pot. Notice the little legs holding the pot up about 1/4 inch? The bottom of the pot is pressure sensitive....so, after it's steeped, all you do
is sit it on your cup/mug and it starts to drain,
leaving you with a nice cup of hot yummy tea. I generally leave the loose tea in the pot in case I want another cup. Sometimes you can get a 2nd round...depending on the tea and how long you let it steep. Sometimes I add just a pinch of fresh loose tea to make the 2nd cup. Awesome gift. I've used it almost everyday since Christmas. Even took it to
Hilton Head with us several weeks ago for vacation. Enjoyed a cup after being out and about on the
bike tooting around. Thank You Darling Daughter.
