MF I thought that must be a different brand of tea so had to google it to find out it's from the T2 range.  They have such lovely gifts in that shop, browse and taste, browse and taste - it's great fun.

What a lovely gift Frozzie.  I had one of those given to me years ago and still have it.  Mine is very plain and not nearly as pretty as yours.

Gert, that is such a useful gift.  Our SS's are very clever people and know just the right gift to buy.

Gert your SS gift is lovely and ever so useful. We are indeed lucky people.

Well done all the SS givers. If you haven't posted yours off, now is the time.

Gert,  very very nice.  I also have one like your old one.  Ice blocks on the infuser?

CP that is what I immediately did. Dumped the ice tea and a lot of ice Into the jug. Put some lemon in the infuser and now my berry ice tisane with a hint of rose with some oolong is sitting nicely in the fridge. The jug is heavy but delicate and I love that it has the lid so other smells can't get in. Also it is large so I don't have to make ice tea every other day. Best thing ever. Never saw it before in glass. So nice.

You could be there would not be much point as the infuser has holes  in it to let the flavour infuse. Very clever.
