I love to drink hot tea at work when the weather gets cold. I am also lazy and can\u2019t be bothered to make tea at work (it\u2019s a small office and making tea is too messy). Nor do I want to make the tea before I leave the house because I\u2019m always in a hurry in the morning. (Have I mentioned that I\u2019m a bit high-maintenance?) I have been hunting for years for the perfect travel tea container that allows me to prepare the tea at home before I leave in the morning but have hot tea throughout the day without having to make it.<\/p>\n

After several trials (and failures) of different travel mugs, I finally stumbled on a travel mug made by a company called David\u2019s Tea. This mug (or, more accurately, a thermos) contains a cleverly designed tea strainer and a tea leaf storage area that is built into the cap of the thermos. All you have to do is put your tea leaves of choice into the strainer, fill the thermos with boiling water, screw the cap on and go about your merry way. The tea is made by the time you get to work (unless you have a really short commute), and the tea stays hot the entire day. I take it home, I clean out the strainer and thermos, and I\u2019m all set for the next day.<\/p>\n

My only (minor) complaint is that the thermos isn\u2019t as large as I would like. (I like tea.) The thermos come in 12 and 17 ounce sizes. That being said, the thermos fits easily into a car\u2019s drink holder, and it comes in several festive colors.<\/p>\n

David\u2019s Tea has stores throughout the U.S., and you can also shop from their website at http:\/\/www.davidstea.com<\/a> under travel accessories.<\/p>\n
