I love making tea in my teapot!  I use loose leaves, and my teapot has a built-in strainer on the inside edge of the spout.
I love my teapot too! Its just a regular teapot from like Walmart, not a special collectible one
I'm sure it works fine!  But since I use loose tea, a tea strainer is a big help - I hate picking leaves out of my tea!
Eww yeah. I tend to use premade tea bags in mine!
tea and hot water are added, a handle for holding by hand and a spout through which the tea is served. Some teapots have a strainer built-in on the inner edge of the spout. A small air hole in the lid is often created to stop the spout from dripping and splashing when tea is poured. In modern times, a thermally insulating cover called a tea cosy may be used to enhance the steeping process or to prevent the contents of the teapot from cooling too rapidly.
