What is a glass teapot?

A glass teapot is a transparent teapot made entirely of glass from the lid to the handle and to the very tip of your teapot.

Most are simple teapots, but some can be masterful artful pieces of glasswork, with exquisitely crafted lids.

Beautiful and elegant, teapots made of glass come in various sizes and shapes, and most also include either a glass or a metal infuser in case you wish to use one.

The great advantage of this teapot is that in most cases the color of the tea, whether with tea leaves or other different herbs, is a clear sign of the strength of your tea.

This will allow you to strain or remove the tea infuser exactly when the infusion reaches the strength you desire. There is no need to keep drinking over-brewed bitter tea.

Another advantage of a glass teapot is that unlike other materials, glass is less likely to alter the taste of the tea while brewing.

Best Teas to Brew in a Glass Teapot

The perfect tea for a teapot made of glass is the flowering tea. As the tea flower blooms and opens up in your pot it really is a magical moment.

A glass teapot is also great for loose leaf tea so that you can enjoy as the leaves open and brew in your teapot. Watch as the water slowly takes on the color of your tea as tea leaves swirl and dance in your teapot.

These are just a few suggestions, but you may also try brewing any herbal tea in your glass teapot and make the most of it.

How to Care for Your Teapot

As with any other item made of glass that is in your kitchen, a glass teapot is a delicate object that requires a bit of care when handling.

Making tea in a glass teapot

Brew your tea as you would with any other teapot. Place the tea leaves in then infuser or directly in the teapot.

Pour water at the recommended temperature for the type of tea you are brewing.

Let your tea steep. Enjoy the pleasure that the glass teapot offers you, once your tea is done, strain and drink.

Washing your teapot

Wash your teapot with care, using mild soap, and rinsing it with plenty of hot water so that no residue remains and ruins your next pot of tea.

Make sure you are always holding the teapot properly so that it does not slip from your hands. Sometimes all you need is a slight bump against the edge of the sink or the tap to crack it.

After some use your teapot may start to stain. Use vinegar or cream of tartar with hot water to return the glass to its shiny original look.

Tips for using and keeping your glass teapot

If you are in a hurry, using the tea infuser may be advisable as it makes the cleaning process of the teapot afterwards quicker and, therefore, less risky.

When pouring the tea, it is best to place a finger on the lid to hold it place so that it will not fall when tipping the teapot.

When making iced tea, don’t place the teapot in the refrigerator or freezer while it is still hot, as the glass may crack. Let it cool down a bit first.
