It's ok
"It's more durable than the tiny scoop-shaped tea infusers, but it barely fits over my admittedly large cup. It's also slightly annoying to clean every time, so I may start putting my tea into empty tea bags instead."

Reviews
Fabulous
"I love my tea infuser. It makes making tea so easy. The depth of the neck makes it fabulous for using over a tea pot if friends come for tea, put a spoon of tea in a cup I replace the holder as a lid. Strrt for 5-5 mins, then my perfect cup is done I put the infuser into a cup and then recycle my tea leaves for composting"
Yes Infuser
"This infuser is the best infuser & strainer I’ve ever used. Not only does it stop even the tiniest grains of tea getting through so you get a really clean & pure cup of tea but it fits beautifully inside every mug we own. This means the whole amount of water in the mug covers all of the tea and you can leave it for as long or as short as you like depending how strong you like your tea. In fact there’s an extra one going on my next order because sometimes I might want one flavour of tea & my husband might want a different flavour so a teapot just doesn’t work in that situation. And of course Bird & Blend have the most amazing flavours but that’s another story."
Brilliant
"Fits my mug great. Has so much room for the loose tea to move about. It doesn’t take up a lot of space meaning once you take it out, you still have a full cup of brewed tea. The only downside is with more room, I’m using 2 teaspoons of leaves but the taste is great. Definitely would recommend"
Because not all houses have teapots anymore...
"I travel a lot for my work and, as the title states, teapots are thin on the ground these days. This handy little infuser is the perfect solution to a great cuppa."
Tea infuser worth buying!
"Lovely Tea Strainer/Infuser - if you've been using a novelty tea strainer that keeps letting tea leaves through & it was frustrating you as it did for me - this is well worth buying! Plus it fits nicely into tea pots too! 10/10 would buy again."
It really does stop those
"It really does stop those annoying tiny tea particles getting through into your cuppa. Great quality and design, love that the lid can also be used as a stand"
Great infuser!
"This fits perfectly in a mug, and has very small holes so the finer leaves do not leak through. The lid is a good addition aswell as helps keep the drink hot whilst brewing."
So good!
"I've gone through many infusers over the years which have let through lots of tea debris. However this one genuinely prevents even my dustiest loose leaf tea from floating around my teacup! I love the little hat as well, I use it to keep the tea warmer for longer, it serves as a saucer for the infuser, and I also use it on my glass of water at night to keep it fresh until the morning. Great quality too!"
Best I’ve bought
"I own and tried no less than 5 tea diffusers and this is my fave for a single, very large, cup! The wider design makes it easy to empty ready for another or different flavour!"
Q&A
- Can you use the sticky chai in this?
- Hello Paige, you could brew your sticky chai this way, yes. just pop a heaped teaspoon of the Chai into the infuser and brew for at least 4 minutes. https://www.birdandblendtea.live/blogs/recipes/sticky-chai-4-ways?_pos=19&_sid=af63291ef&_ss=r here's our blog post on 4 different way to brew the Sticky Chai. Happy brewing Andi @ B&B
- Is the measuring spoon included, or is this purchased separately? :)
- Hi there, thanks for asking! The spoon and mug are separate, you'll get the infuser and blue lid/rest together. Ian @ B&B
- Hi, would it be possible to use this or any of your other products inside of my grandma's old tea pot? Because I want to use tea leaves, but don't want to buy a new tea pot because hers is sentimental to me :)) Could I put this tea infuser in any tea pot or 2 mugs or something to make more than one brew?
- Hi Morgan, If our Tea Infuser fits into your Grandma's teapot then you can definitely use it! It also fits most standard size mugs. The size is L8 cm W8.5cm D11cm. Happy Sipping! Claire @ B&B
- Hello, I just wanted to ask if you would be stocking any other colours for these infusers? Many thanks in advance. Kind regards, Shakira
- Hi Shakira, Thank you for your question! We won't be stocking any other colours apart from the blue original :) Yours brew-ly, Marlie @ B&B
- Can this be put in the dishwasher?
- Hi ~Gemma - you certainly can its safe to do so! you can also just empty and wash with warm soapy water - whichever you prefer. I do find the dishwasher keeps the infuser lovely and clean though. Andi @ B&B
