HIC Kitchen's Leaf Tea Infuser makes it easy 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. Place the infuser into a tea cup or mug 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 easy to use and fill, and more economical than buying disposable tea bags. Made from 18/8 stainless steel and silicone, HIC Kitchen's Tea Leaf Infuser is sturdy and reusable and makes a great tea accessories gift. Dishwasher safe for easy cleanup.
