These 78 oz airtight glass jars are a beautiful and practical way to store your loose leaf teas and herbal blends. With their classic clamp-style lids and secure seal, they help keep your teas fresh, fragrant, and protected from moisture.
I personally use jars like these to store my own herbal teas, and I love how easy they make it to stay organized while still looking clean and timeless on the counter or shelf. The clear glass lets you see exactly what you have at a glance.
The airtight clasp lid creates a reliable seal, helping preserve both flavor and potency, while the wide opening makes scooping and refilling simple and mess free.
Whether you're building your tea collection or organizing your kitchen, these jars are a staple you’ll reach for every day.
To be honest, I don't use this style for my daily tea anymore, but I always keep them on hand for gift baskets. They are the perfect addition when you’re giving the gift of tea to someone who might not have their own infuser yet. It’s a great starter tool to help someone enjoy loose-leaf tea right away.
If you are an occasional tea drinker or need something that doesn’t take up much space in your drawer, this is a practical and affordable choice.
I love my French press. I actually used it so much that I threw out my regular coffee maker and started brewing my daily coffee this way. While I have mostly switched to tea now, coffee is still my guilty pleasure. I still enjoy one cup every morning while I read my Bible. It’s a "me and Jesus" tradition I just can’t break.
I keep two separate presses: one for coffee and one for tea. This ensures the coffee oils don't alter the flavor of my herbal blends. This specific size is perfect for making about three cups of tea at a time. I just add my herbs, pour boiling water over them, and let them steep for 15 minutes. It’s especially nice if you’re sharing with a friend or want more than one cup.

My Mom got me this mug when I first started creating my own herbal teas. It comes with a ceramic infuser cup that fits perfectly inside the mug. You just add your tea blend and pour hot water over the herbs. I particularly like this mug because it keeps my tea hot for a long time.
A quick tip: Since the infuser cup is ceramic, it gets very hot while your tea steeps. Just be careful when you go to remove it so you don’t get burned!
This style of tea infuser is incredibly convenient and easy to use and very similar to one I’ve personally used and loved. Once your tea is finished steeping, you simply set the infuser on top of your mug, and it dispenses every last drop directly into your cup. It makes the whole process simple, clean, and mess-free.
While this isn’t the exact one I originally had, I chose it based on strong reviews and its nearly identical design and function. It offers the same ease of use and quick cleanup that made my original infuser a favorite.
The only thing to keep in mind is the fit, as it may not sit perfectly on wider or oversized mugs. However, it works great with standard-sized coffee mugs.
If you’re looking for something practical, low-mess, and easy to clean, this is a wonderful option.
These sell really well in my shop because they are so versatile. They are wonderful to give as gifts alongside a jar of tea, but they aren't just for drinking. You can also fill the larger ones with herbs and drop them into your bathwater for an amazing aromatherapy soak.
These bags are extremely inexpensive, so you don’t have to feel guilty if you toss them after a few uses. This link takes you to the "two-size" option: I use the larger ones for tea baths and the smaller ones for a single cup of tea. You can also choose to purchase just one size or the other depending on what you need.
