Tea Accessories Every Beginner Needs



I used to think all you needed to brew tea was a teapot and a cup. But there's so much more to it, especially when you're just starting your tea journey. Level up your brews with these must-have accessories that mix function and style. From handy tools to beautiful serving ware, here’s everything you need to make your tea ritual extra special.


1. Tea Infusers: Mess-Free Magic

At Cue, we’ve got the perfect fix for mess-free tea: strainers. They’re the most affordable and practical tea accessory that you can get as a beginner.

  • Basket Tea Strainer: A versatile option that lets those tea leaves stretch out and party! This roomy strainer gives you maximum flavor without the mess.

  • Pipe Tea Strainer: If the loose leaf that you're brewing is not bulky (say Chamomile flowers), pipe tea strainer is the perfect fit for you. Tiny but mighty, this little hook-on hero keeps your tea leaves in check.

2. Teaware That’s Too Pretty

We can't be more excited about our own exclusive CueWare. These ceramic accessories mix clean design with bold colors to take your tea game up a notch. Plus, with a heavy-metal-free glaze, they’re both stylish and safe for your space.

  • CueWare Fluted Ceramic Cups: Handleless, fluted, and oh-so-chic. These cups feel as good as they look, with earthy tones that scream “calm vibes only.” Hot tea, iced tea, coffee—they do it all.

  • CueWare Tea Cup and Saucer Set: Craving a handled version of those fluted cups? The CueWare Tea Cup and Saucer Set is your perfect match. I've always preferred handled cups to those without one. They're just easier to hold and fancier! Think Parisian café vibes, or English high tea. Earthy tones + fluted texture = your new tea-time fav.
