Homemade tea bags?

[cinnamonamon]

I'd like to make some, but what can I use? Muslin? Cheesecloth?

TIA!

Muslin would definately be better because cheesecloth is too porous, unless you use at least a couple layers.

Are you making them reusable? That would be neat. I personally prefer loose leaf - I find it has a better flavour.

Hey thanks! I had given up getting an answer. I actually wanted to make a few to put loose leaf in to give away -- I have a metal strainer do-hickey for my own.

I used a coffee filter to make a teabag to make raspberry leaf tea when my raspberry vines dried up. I tied it with a string.
