Tea Infuser travel mug

by moldboy » Feb 5th, '11, 12:09

I'm looking for a tea infuser travel mug. But there is one catch, I like to drink my tea slowly so there has to be a way to remove and store the leaves from the water after steeping. Every one I've looked at has been a mesh inside a travel mug type thing but there is no leaf management system so you either leave them in, or have a dripping mess to deal with. The ideal system will leave my leaves lots of room to breath, but allow them to be scrunched un tightly in a sealed space with little mess...

Anybody have any suggestions?


Thanks

That is really nice, but it isn't a travel mug it just fits in a regular mug. But that is really really nice, i've been looking for a regular infuser as well, and that might just do the trick.

Not much of a travel mug... but I use this in office as my 'travel' mug cause i tend to walk here and there. The cup can retain heat quite well

This is the mug I use constantly at work or while travelling:

It has a removable basket/filter inside--I brew just as long as I need, then yank out the basket and put it in an empty paper cup/coffee cup/saucer/whatever I have handy. That way I can rebrew, as well!

I've seen glass traveling tea tumblers at some Starbucks, but I've always been worried about them breaking. Because isn't the point of having a "travel" mug that you can take it with you anywhere and not really have to worry about banging it up a bit?

I really like that it's made of glass though, and in stores it's only $16.
