Your Ultimate Guide to Tea Accessories
Tea Boxes and Canisters
Belmint Bamboo Tea Box with 8 Storage Sections and Expandable Drawer
- $40.68
- Wayfair Canada
If you don’t have a tea box yet, we highly suggest you consider getting a bamboo storage box.
A Tea Storage Box is a practical manner to get rid of the tea boxes cluttering your kitchen space. It’s an offence to just stuff those lovely bags packed with healthy nutrients in a drawer, but a tea box can help maintain better harmony and peace for your saving spaces.
Tea Pots + Cups
- $39.98
- Indigo
You can’t drink tea without having a cup to drink it in, and if you’re sharing tea with others, you’d need a teapot and teacups. You can opt for the traditional set, or find one that suits the aesthetic of you and your home.
Tea Mug or Travel Tumbler
- $39.98
- Indigo
If you’re on the go, a travel tumbler is what you need! We recommend your find one with a stainless steel lining, our double walled like this one, on the inside so that your cup of tea stays hot for as long as possible. But, if you prefer your tea iced, we recommend you get yourself a tumbler with a steeper built into it.
Tea Steeper or Tea Filter
- $39.00
- DAVID'S Tea
A tea steeper or a tea filter is a tool that allows you to steep full-leaf loose tea leaves instead of using the pre-packaged tea bags with which many of us are familiar. It holds full-leaf loose tea leaves together, often in a mesh ball or basket, and keeps leaves from floating freely through your beverage.
If you’re trying to reduce your carbon footprint, purchasing a reusable tea steeper is the way to go. There are so many fun shapes and sizes, all you need to do is pick!
Milk Frothers
- $199.00
- Crate+Barrel
Do you like milk in your tea? If yes, well then that means you’re in need of a frother.
There are two main types of frothers, a portable electric hand-held one, and one that almost looks like a regular travel mug.
Both frothers turn your milk of choice into a creamy, fluffy milk base for your desired tea drink. Once you start, you seriously can’t live without it. Putting regular cold milk from the fridge will never be the same. We believe that this will truly enhance your tea latte.
Matcha Tea Set
- $40
- DAVID'S Tea
Out of all the matcha tools, we consider the chasen (bamboo whisk) to be the most essential one. It’s what will really help you mix the matcha and achieve an incredible froth when used properly. Other than that, the other tools can be substituted with other items that you already own in your kitchen.
