The Avanti Snap Tea Ball Infuser is a great way to brew loose leaf tea easily and more comfortably. The handle features a silicone cover which keeps it cool, plus makes the handle easier to pinch open. Ideal for all loose leaf teas, the 5cm diameter gives the tea plenty of room to expand in the ball. Easy-to-use, you simply pinch the two handles and the ball separates. Fill with a spoonful of your favorite loose leaf, close it up, and steep just like a teabag. 5cm Diameter Stainless Steel construction Spring loaded opening mechanism Silicone Grip handle Dishwasher safe
