BuyCincy Holiday Guide: Teaposy
What's the deal?It's getting down to the wire as far as Christmas gifts go, and you need something that is easy to find and sure to please. Enter Teaposy. Part art, part tea, Teaposy takes high-quality tea and adds a little life - blooming flowers. The tea/flower misture is purchased in bulb form. When exposed to hot water, the flowers bloom inside of the glass teapot, and the tea brews like a typical sachet or loose-leaf variety. It would be easy to recommend this as a gift for tea conneseuirs, but we think anyone with a passing interest in tea would be captivated by the blooming tea process. Don't believe us? Check out the video after the jump.
Perfect for?
Anyone who drinks, has drunk or plans to drink hot tea.

I wonder if the tea is any good? In the video, the tea being poured looked like water. Not all teas are dark-colored, of course.
Actually, I think it was water, and was then supposed to brew from the flower. If you follow the video to the actual youtube page, some of the comments seem to shed light on how it works exactly.
I actually got one for Christmas this year - I'll try it soon and post back on how it tastes.
