A Lid On It


These Chinese porcelain tea mugs feel like a luxury but at a minimal cost. They are available in most any gift shop in your China Town area. They sell for less than 15 although the fancier versions can be more.

Accoutrement may vary as some mugs come with a strainer and a lid. The porcelain strainer is a clean way to use tea leaves and doesn't age or rust as metal strainers may. The lid helps steep your tea and leaves you foot loose and fancy free even with hot tea in hand. Every mug should come with a lid. Genius.
