The perfect travel mug for loose leaf tea?
Has anyone found a great loose-leaf travel mug? I have done Google searches til I am blue in the face, and haven't been able to find anything that has a built-in infuser basket that is easily removed. Everything I have found keeps the leaves out of your mouth, but still steeping until you finish drinking, which obviously could result in over-steeped, bitter tea.

All of these mugs can also be found elsewhere. I have not purchased from any of these sites and do not endorse them.

Teas for trade:
Another thought is to just use a fillable tea bag.
These are great, and IMO the best on the market, and I have tried A LOT:

Voilà! This would likely be my pick. It seems neater than using a brew basket you have to pull out and rest somewhere.
Don't forget to check out "leaving leaves in bottle" thread. You might also want to search the forum a bit: I know these apparatuses have been discussed before.

I must say, that appears to be the most well executed travel device for tea I have ever seen. And it isn't even outrageously priced. If only I had known about that before I traveled to California.Mary R wrote:Voilà! This would likely be my pick. It seems neater than using a brew basket you have to pull out and rest somewhere.

Life is like a cup of tea, savor it slowly or it will be gone too fast
