Greetings! I’ve gotten the question a time or two: Snowshoe, I don’t have a tea strainer, what can I do?
Brewing loose leaf tea should not be difficult. There are a number of useful products to help you. You use a tea ball, a tea strainer, a reusable muslin tea bag, or disposable tea bags. You can toss the leaves loose into a pot and use a strainer over your cup, or purchase a teapot that has a basket infuser. BUT what can you do if you don’t have any of those things? Do you have a coffee filter and a rubber band? Cheese cloth and some string? How about paper towel and a clothespin? You can make tea. 🙂
