Travel tea cups with built filters

Dec 03, 2004 6 Replies

I have a good friend who traveled through China recently and found many people using clear plastic travel cups with filters (small basket) and a lid. This allowed me to either put tea in the bottem of the cup and fit the filter into the top. This is great! I just keep adding hot water off I go. Or the tea could go into the the filter on top and as a infuser of the tea- fix it to your desire. My friend gave me a small 6-8 oz. cup that I just love.



These cups (glasses, cup, mug with out a handle don't know what to call them) are great but since I do not know what they are called I can't search the web to find resellers. I searched the web but have not see these types of cups.



Does anyone know about these? Where can I find them on the web? What are they called? Is there a whole seller they someone out there knows?



Thanks for your help.

he also sells them direct, non-auction. yellow mountain imports. you can email Pong from the ebay site. he's great, and so is the thermos... i just got one last week.....p*

the one pictured in the above link is the short, squat one...they also make a taller, slender one like i've got.....p*

it's funny to me seeing these posts. i took for granted that you could just get those at the supermarket for basically pennies in China but you have to pay like 20 bucks for them here. heh

stupid of me for not getting one! heh.
