IngenuiTea No-Pour Tea Server
I had my first experience with an "IngenuiTea" teapot at the local coffee house the other night. Adagio Tea's 16 ounce teapot requires no pouring--it drains tea straight out the bottom. Don't worry it's easy to work. Basically, you pour the hot water into the clear pot, toss in some crushed tea leaves (no need for a bag or strainer), let the drink steep, then set the pot on top of your favorite mug. Responding to the pressure of the cup, it drains the tea out the bottom, leaving the leaves behind for easy dumping. Sitting it on a table doesn't make it drain; it has to be on the rim of a cup (it works best with a standard mug--you have to get a little creative draining it into over-sized cups).
