Tea Necessities
There are some things you just can’t do without, and here are my top 5 for your enjoyment of tea.
Tea Kettle
Doesn’t have to be fancy but I would love an electric temperature controlled one for my tea.
I currently use a cheap-o stove-top model.
Strainer
Some tea, such as white tea, just doesn’t do well with leafy matter in it.
Other teas such as shu puerh I tend to prefer it.
Strainers can be: stainless steel, bamboo, ceramic, and even silicone.
I currently use half of a tea ball because I’m cheap.
Cha Hai
Serving pitchers are great for serving multiple people or just to pour tea into so it wont over-steep.
I just use a porcelain pitcher when I need one.
Double Walled Glasses
Keep your fingers burn-free with some good double-walled glasses.
I personally use Bodum Pavina Glasses.
Little Black Teapot
You need a go-to pot, one that’s simple and elegant, like a little black dress.
I have one I found at a second hand store that I fancy, but if you can’t find one there I have some suggestions.
Thanks for reading 🙂
