Can you use tea bags as well as Teavana leaves?

Absolutely! You can use any tea in this product, it doesn't have to be teavana products. I use my own loose tea.

Why on earth would you want to waste this tea maker with tea bags? Loose leaf is the only way to go!

Yes! This is one of their more pungent teas, so you can definitely make 2 cups with one tea bag. :-)

Yes you can. I imagine you could even use the single serving coffee bags (that are like tea bags).

Yes, i use it with loose tea all the time. The holes are quite small and allow only a very small amount of "tea dust" to settle in the bottom of the cup. It is about the same as using a fine mesh tea ball.

Yes, definitely. I used it for tea as well just the way it is. If I need more than just one cup of tea, I would measure the water, and placed the tea bags in the infuser and make three, or four cups of tea at once. Good luck.

You can remove the strainer and add a tea bag into the teapot. With the strainer, its perfect for loose leaf tea�

You could probably use regular tea bags but I wouldn't use loose tea as it would seap throughout the pitcher.

to do that you would have to cut it apart and make two tea bags. You could probably do that, but in my estimation, it just isn't worth the trouble. I would also like a smaller size, but I managed to use all of my water over the course of a week or so. Hope that helped.

Yes you can put a tea bag into the pot (either with or without the strainer). I use the teapot with both loose leaf tea and tea bags. You will get a great cup(s) of tea either way!

I did not but I don't see where it would be a problem. The top screws on so tea bags will fit.

I used a large tea infuser for pitchers of tea....I am able to get 3 large pitchers out of 1 bag - I like mine quite strong - then add extra ice, and water to serve. If you preferred less strong tea you probably to make 4 pitchers per bag.

I have not tried tea in this unit. But I do believe loose tea will work. As for a tea bag, I would think, if the tea bag fits in the unit, it would work just fine.

Of course. You just need to put few tea bags at a time according to your taste if you want to fill the teapot in full.

I have not used it with tea bags, but I don't see any reason why you can't A tea bag would certainly fit inside the Manatea.

Yes both work, but you are buying a product more made for loose tea since it comes with a loose tea infuser. Save your money and use a regular mug if you want to use a tea bag.

I am sure they would work, but you don't need the infuser if you are using a tea bag really anyway.

Ted, I have two of these infusers and have used them in similar fashion to what you are asking. Although I have never put two regular tea bags inside I will say that I use two teaspoons of loose tea with plenty of room to spare. So in answer to your question I believe yes you would be able to put two regular tea bags into this infused at the same time. Hope this helps!
