The Tea Diver is an ultra-cute way to steep that perfect [cup of tea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cup-ji).

According to the designers of this deep-sea explorer, the actual miniature [tea steeper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-tea-infuser) resembles a traditional Korean diving technique known as Meoguri. These divers only rely on a string to receive their air. The Tea Diver also has the string, but in this case, it is to help steep your tea.

To put your [favorite tea](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veryvery-good-tea) in the diver, simply twist the bottle off the bottom and put in the leaves. Then, submerge your diving buddy into a hot cup of water and let him steep for a while.

The Tea Diver strainer is composed of the material LSR and designed by AbelPartners Design Studio.
