I got this about 5-6 weeks ago from David’s Tea, and have used it almost non-stop since. It turns out the hubby likes iced tea! This works well both for flash chilling with hot water and ice, and also for cold brewing. However, I do have a few caveats:
- When pouring, the spout is a bit splashy, especially if the pitcher is nearly empty.
- The plastic retains smells very easily. This doesn’t affect the taste of the tea any, but when the pitcher and filter are washed out and drying, you can definitely smell a lingering smell of previous iced teas.
- The pitcher is VERY tall. There is only about one space in my fridge where I can have it stand upright, which is on the fridge door next to the milk.

I think it seals tight enough that you can lay it on the side! I had it for a few months before I dropped it on my floor and cracked it. :|
Ooh, that reminds me, if I screw the lid on and hold it real tight, I can actually hold the pitcher upside down to shake the contents and get them mixed more thoroughly.
Aww, that’s too bad, Cavo. David’s is still selling them, though now the pitcher accents are an electric blue to match the new Carnival theme.
