KOALA-TEA

Fred's little belly holds exactly enough leaves for one strong mug, and watching him dangle there while my tea steeps honestly makes the wait enjoyable. Loose leaf finally feels worth the fuss, and cleanup is just a quick rinse.

The little arms hook over my mug rim perfectly and the whole thing just hangs there while the tea steeps. It's small enough that I forget it's even in the cup until I go to sip.

Filling his little belly with loose tea leaves is oddly satisfying, and the cute koala face makes me smile every time I use it. The brew comes out perfectly steeped, too.
