It's the Perfectea Maker, a fancy tea steeping pot. I'm trying it out right now!

Edit: Oh. My. Glob! Not only does this make a killer cup of tea, but it's SO FREAKING FUN TO WATCH!! I probably screwed up the taste, but I had to pour the tea back in to show my husband how it worked!! Too fun!

Edit II: Return of the Package: So...my gifter spoiled the crap out of me. I spent about twenty minutes snorting these amazingly delicious smelling teas. Thank-you sooo much! I'm drinking some of it right now! You've made me an addict!
