Tea ball

A tea ball is a little tool that helps you make tea without getting bits of leaves or herbs in your mouth. It looks kind of like a tiny metal cage with little holes all over it. You open up the tea ball and put some tea leaves or herbs in it. Then you close it up and drop it in your hot water. The holes in the tea ball let the tea or herbs flavor the water, but keep the little pieces from floating all around. When your tea is done brewing, you just take the tea ball out and dump out the leaves or herbs. Then you can drink your tea without worrying about chewing on little pieces!
