A floating tea infuser is perfect for brewing your favorite tea but has many more uses. It serves as a spice and herb ball to infuse liquids for flavorful homemade stocks, soups, hot spiced cider, or mulled wine. Simply fill the stainless steel mesh basket with spices, herbs, bouquet garni, or tea, attach the lid, and let it float in your liquid. It fits in most teacups and mugs as it measures 1.75” x 1.75” x 3” tall. The finely woven durable stainless steel mesh body is dishwasher safe, but do place securely in the silverware caddy or rack.
