The strawberry design and colors are gorgeous. The included strainer makes using loose leaf tea easy - the tea brews up quickly. The lid helps keep the tea warm over a period of time - which helps since I'm a slow drinker. Would definitely recommend for yourself or as a gift.

This colorful cup makes me feel like it's picnic-time! I purchased this for myself, as I feel I do deserve something pretty. As opposed to those old, utilitarian looking infuser cups, this is not only useful, but a tasteful (see what I did there) addition to pampering one's self!
