want it now: yellow submarine tea infuser
What better way to dress down high tea than with a nod to England’s original boy band? The tea sub, $14 at Fred Flare, does just that. Made of dishwasher-safe, heat-resistant silicone, it would be the perfect gift for that tea-drinking Beatles fan in your life. Simply fill the submarine with loose tea and explore your favorite mug in style. — Sarah C.
OMG, LOVE!!!!!!! Awesome find, Sarah C!
That is the CUTEST! Provided you have glass cups, of course…but I’d BUY them for this!
Very cute, but I’m really wary of silicone. A few years ago I bought silicone baking pans and after a few uses they became impossibly sticky. Plus, in general I try to stick with natural materials so I think I’ll just stay old school and let my tea leaves settle at the bottom of the mug.
I know we’ve had conversations here about silicone being safe, but I’ll have to do more research before I can respond coherently. We did a post on a tagine where it’s silicone and you bake it…
