In this segment we're going to talk about some different ways you can prepare loose tea at home to make it just as easy as any other beverage including coffee. A lot of people are use to tea bags. You can use tea bags that you can actually fill yourself with loose tea. An example is this, the bag opens up like that, tucks over like the old style sandwich bags and makes it just as convenient as your old style tea bag. You can also take these when you travel or to the office if you don't have a place where you can make tea. If you don't like a paper solution, many people prefer something that’s reusable. This is a metal infuser, it goes in the top of any tea cup, you can then put your loose tea in here and then pour the hot water right on top of it. When the tea is done steeping you just take the infuser out and you've got your cup of tea ready to go. The last way you can do it and this is probably the more elegant rather than the efficient is to use a tea pot with an infuser in there. This tea pot for example has the infuser built right into the teapot and when you put the loose tea and hot water in there and you let it steep the amount of time required by the tea, you take the infuser out you've got a pot of tea you can enjoy yourself or share with friends. Those are so easy ways that you can make tea with loose leave.
