Live simply,so others may simply live. 2|2|This would be the most economical way to do it since it is reusable, and easy too :) Link inside, Cathie to tea balls (yes, that's what they're called, lol)|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|10:26:24|06/27/2009|

They have some really cute ones out there, some are on a handle and some on a chain.....some have decorative ends on them, like large charms (hearts, flowers, animals, etc)...I'm sure you could find one at places Bed, Bath & Beyond.
Also, here is a link to using fresh mint for tea

And a link on how to dry the mint for tea or use later (potpourri, etc)
