A loose-leaf teamaker that's sleek, durable, and dishwasher-safe.
Just scoop in your favorite tea, let it steep, stack the teamaker over a cup or mug, and press down to dispense. (This version is best for loose-leaf varieties because the mesh strainer at the bottom catches the leaves, but you can use regular teabags, too.) It works for hot or iced tea, is dishwasher-safe, and is surprisingly durable — mine's several years old and going strong.
Get it from Amazon for $19.
