Mar 10, 2023 at 20:19 | comment | added | Andrew Jackson | Allow me to explain 😁. You see, I lead a nomadic lifestyle - having things available to me on the go is very important to me. Thus, I have searched for tumblers that would let me brew and drink tea away from home. For reasons that are too long to explain here, I settled for a glass tumbler with two separate cavities - one for loose leaves and the other for water. With a single rotation, I can let the two mix and even brew tea twice. Problem: Cleaning out loose tea from the bottom cavity on the go is a tedious task. Ideally, it should be as effortless as putting in the first serving. | |
