Summer Splash! Libre Tea Loose Leaf Tea Glass Review & Giveaway




I have been making my own herbal teas for several years now. I have dozens of jars of loose herbs and I love mixing and blending them to create tasty new varieties. But taking my homemade teas on the road has never been easy. I have tons of tea diffusers, but they don't really fit inside most travel mugs. But now, thanks to the Libre Tea Loose Leaf Tea Glass, its easy and convenient to take home made herbal tea with me where ever I go.

The Libre Tea Loose Lead Tea Glass is easy to use . You just twist off the lip and add your blend of loose leaf tea to the removable BPA free filter. Fix your tea before you  leave or anytime during the day by adding in some hot water and letting it simmer. In minutes you have your tea in a convenient container that fits in your car cup holders and doesn't leak. It also stays cool to the touch while still keeping your tea nice and warm. Its the perfect on the go mug for tea drinkers. You won't know how you got by without one if you give it a try.




In addition to the glass, Libre also offers a new Libre Mug. Both are available for sale on their online website. If you are a fan of green tea, you might want to give their new Ming Mei organic green tea a try. Its the perfect choice to carry around in your Libre Glass. Also be sure to head over to One2Try and see what Rita thought about her new glass. And remember, "If a man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty." (Japanese Proverb)

I learned: The stainless steel filter in both models keeps the tea leaves away from your mouth and is easy to remove for quick access and easy cleaning when adding or emptying loose leaf tea.

I learned loose leaf tea is often better tasting because it is not made from tea “dust” like many teabag counterparts.

Cool!

I really learned a lot from the site.I even put it in my favorites. Green tea contains particularly high levels of the antioxidant, polyphenol. In fact, a 1996 Boston Tufts University study concluded that one cup of green tea has antioxidant levels equivalent to 22 vegetables.
