Glass teapots come in all shapes and sizes and are perfect for brewing regular and flower teas. Glass teapots come with the brewing ball built in or accommodate a tea bag or brewing ball. They are easy to clean and always come with care instructions.
One of the beauties of glass teapots is that you can see the tea as it brews. You can brew to your desired strength by observing the color. Serving your tea in a glass pot also makes a lovely presentation on your table. You can even shop for flavored teas based on a color theme if you are planning to serve guests with freshly brewed tea. Red tea or strawberry tea makes a beautiful color tea in a glass teapot for Valentine’s Day or Christmas time.
Glass teapots come double-walled, with center columns to keep the tea leaves separate, with long spouts, or tall ready for you to add ice if you are so inclined. Some have a metal infuser built in and some are all glass. You can find teapots with side handles or swinging top handles like on a tea kettle. Consider how you will use your teapot and the number of cups of tea you will brew most often as you choose the teapot that is right for you.
You must take care as you handle a glass teapot. Some will break easily, but others will handle bumps without cracking. Glass teapots can rarely handle direct exposure to heat (as on an electric element). Follow the manufacturer’s directions for the care and handling of your teapot. With proper care and handling your glass teapot will provide you with your favorite tea for many years to come.
