The High Seas of Tea

Posted on January 29, 2008 Under Life

Have you ever imagined your cup of afternoon tea as a hot steaming sea of soothing flavor? Well, if you have, have you ever stopped to think that instead of adding some sugar or milk to make that body of water complete, what it really needs is a seafaring ship? Okay, maybe you haven't, but then again your name isn't Elisabeth Soos (or is it?). The Austria-based industrial designer has come up with the tpod, a novel idea that turns that tag at the top of your teabag into a beverage boat that sails around your tea sea until it's ready to drink. However, we have to warn you: when you go to take out that ship you might want to make sure there are no sharks lurking about.
