Joie's Bumble Bee Tea Infuser makes it fun to steep a fresh and flavorful cup of loose leaf tea as easily as using tea bags. Fill the infuser only halfway with loose tea, so tea leaves have room to fully expand. Hang the bee onto a tea cup or mug with the infuser inside and pour in just boiled water. Steep tea for 3 minutes so essential oils can infuse the brew for maximum aroma and flavor. Once desired brew strength is achieved, set the Infuser aside to cool before emptying and cleaning. Great for making mulled cider and wine, too. Fill with desired spices instead of tea. It's fun to use, easy to fill, and more economical than buying disposable tea bags.
