Design & Functionality Libre polycarbonate and glass beverage bottles are a smart way to enjoy hot tea without the waste of paper cups and tea bags. The lightweight exterior is more durable than an all-glass version, making it ideal for travel as well as home and office use. These wide-mouth bottles can be used for hot or cold drinks, and the double-wall insulation helps keep beverages at the ideal temperature. The roomy interior of the Libre glass mug gives tea plenty of room to steep in hot water, and the stainless steel filter allows water to pass through without allowing leaves to escape. Plus, you can re-steep high-quality teas several times, creating less waste and saving money.
Brew tea two ways: Method One: 1. Remove lid and tea filter, add 2-3 grams (1 teaspoon) of loose-leaf tea into glass
2. Replace filter, add hot water (do not fill all the way to the top), let tea steep 3-5 minutes without lid
3. Sip your tea from your tea glass and add lid for 'on the go,' or pour into tea cup at home
Method Two (for teas with limited steep times): 1. Remove lid and filter, carefully add hot water to the glass (do not fill all the way to the top)
2. Twist on filter securely, add 2-3 grams (1 teaspoon) of loose-leaf tea on top of filter
3.
Wait 2-3 minutes prior to twisting on lid so steam pressure does not force a leak upon inverting
4. After a brief cool down period, twist on lid securely
5. Slowly turn upside-down to steep tea
6. Twist off lid and filter together
7. Drink tea from tea glass (Note: Spent tea leaves remain in the filter and can be reused)

About LIbre Inspired by a trip to China, Libre founder Wendy Weir developed the tea glass as a means to inspire "tea moments" no matter the time or location. Tea has a rich culture in China, with ancient associations of quieting the mind, enjoying friends and as a refuge for the spirit and soul. She noticed that almost everyone had loose-leaf tea with them - the bus drivers, the office and construction workers, moms, dads and grandparents - everyone drank tea all the time! Wendy was advised that for good health, one drank tea all day - green tea is for morning, red tea for afternoon and pu'er for the evening. After purchasing a loose-leaf tea container in Changsha, the idea for Libre tea glasses was born.
Care Instructions Clean before first use with soap and warm water, hand wash.
Tips - The Libre tea polycarbonate and glass is thermal because it is double walled - so hot tea stays hot and cold tea stays cold.
- The lid will fit directly into the tea glass if you choose to omit the filter connector after steeping. Or, use it with just the lid for any of your favorite beverages.
- If you experience leaking, check to ensure that rubber seals are in place in both the filter connector and the lid. Also, ensure that there are no tea leaves on the threads where the pieces twist together and that these surfaces are dry - tea bits and water bubbles can compromise the seal.
