what is a good thing to store the chamomile tea in after the bag is opened that is not the bag

I would be very careful of storing tea in the fridge or freezer- tea absorbs the odors of the items surrounding it, which can be extremely unpleasant depending on what you had it sitting next to. Also, if it absorbs any moisture, it may rot. The best way to store tea is in an airtight container in a dark, dry corner/nook/spot in your pantry or cupboard.

I store my chamomile in a tight glass canning jar within easy reach for daily use. I store the balance of the tea in my freezer in the bag it came in. Have had no problems here in Florida keeping it fresh this way. Barbara

I prefer the leaves as it seems to give a better flavor and I can control how strong I want my tea to be. I found that storing it in the freezer and putting just enough for a week in a sealed glass jar works. If you put too much in the jar, it will lose some of its flavor after a while. So best to store the majority of the leaves in your freezer. It is soooo good!

I do not use the bag, but I use the bowl part often. Just fill it with warm water and a drop or two of soap and sit in it.

I store both opened and unopened packages in the refrigerator. After opening the bag, I fold shut and reseal the open end with a bag clip or a large rubber band, then I place it in a one gallon plastic zip bag, press out the air and seal. This keeps it moist since it may take months to use a bag.

You can get a few tea tins or use quart sized ziploc freezer bags. Fill them 2/3 way with tea and squeeze the air out as you are sealing the bag. Store them in the refrigerator. When you empty a tin, dump the refrigerated tea in it.

This has not been an issue I felt I needed to address.My opened bag resides in back of my modest pantry in its' original plastic bag.This particular bag has been open for a least 6 mos.As I live in Arizona,humidity is not a factor.When making my tea I simply grab a handful and place it in a quart pitcher of tap water and let it steep cold in my refrigerator. I prefer my hibiscus as cold tea. I have not been disappointed with the results.I do not remove the petals from the pitcher.I have even reused them after the first usage.

I store mine in the original bag away from heat and cold (cupboard works for me). there may be another method, I'm no expert but I figure you treat it the same as any other quality herb or spice. As long as it is kept dry & at normal room temp, should be okay. Hope this helps. I still love this wonderful spice same as the first time I tasted it!

I've been a fan of Market Spice Tea for over 20 years. Here's what I do. Get a quart or larger glass or terracotta container w/ an air tight lid. Keep that on you counter top. Keep the rest in the freezer. Looking at the other comments, I see that's what they suggest.

Don't make the product revealed in the sunbaked environments.IF it was opened, be keeping in cold storage.So I suggest you store in.

Hi Jenni2: the tea is loose, not bagged. I thought it was bagged, but this tea is so good, its still worth it. Jeanne

I have stored it overnight, however, what I usually do is cool what is left over in the refrigerator, then I cut it into pieces and wrap in plastic wrap then place into a freeqer bag. I have been doing this and it is always delicious. Good luck, Andi

It is in a plastic bag, after you open it it will not be sealed again, I twist and wrap with rubber band

Personally, I would not store tea in it unless they were individually packaged. This case is not air tight.

The used tea bag will fit in the underside of the buddy, but there is nothing to cover it. I like these because the fit almost any size cup and you have a place to keep your tea bag after it has steeped.

There is no information on the bag, or expiration date, but I would expect the shelf life of an unopened bag would be almost indefinite if kept in a cool, dry place. If you are using the tea regularly, its quality should be fine for as long as it takes you to use a bag. They are dried herbs, so again, store in a cool, dry place and it should be fine.

I doubt that storage other than a cool and dark place like a pantry. One thing to take into account is that you don't want condensation or moisture when storing the leaves. A quick search brought me to this answer which seems to be the common tone from major tea distributors: "The best way to store tea is at room temperature in an airtight tea canister. Unlike coffee, you cannot wrap up tea and put it in the freezer. Tea will lose its flavor and scent quickly if stored in fancy, purely decorative tea containers or kept near a heat source, such as a stove or next to the toaster in your kitchen. - Teavana Website".
