Hello All:
A friend of mine just returned from China with an item I can't seem to find here in the States. He refers to it as a Tea Flask, but is not sure that is what it is actually called. I will do my best to desribe it. If anyone knows its proper name or where I can find/order one, I'd be grateful. So, here goes my attempt at description:
It is a one person, one serving tea maker/carrier/cup. It is tall (maybe 6 inches) and thin, the same general shape/appearence as the popular silver coffee carriers widely used here, but the tea one is made of a thick clear plastic. The top unscrews and you can drink from it. The drink top also unscrews and under this is the mesh filter. How you use the thing is by putting loose tea in the bottom, putting the filter on, pouring hot water over it and then screwing the drink spout/top back on and voila. Personal tea carrier/cup/maker.
Anyone have any clue what I am talking about? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
