Do you reuse tea bags?

How funny, Lisa! My one cat goes NUTS over peppermint and lemon zinger tea bags. He can barely wait for me to get it out of the steaming cup before he's putting his paw in. Then he gets it out and tears it to pieces and loves on it. It's hysterical.

Depends on the tea (and honestly what bag it's in as well).

My loose teas. Yes, I'll reuse the leaves 2 or 3 times (typically black teas as that's what I like).

My really nice silk bags of Earl grey, no problems for 2 or 3 (in fact the first run is so strong that I reserve it for pulling all nighters and then save the bags for normal use later. No problems using it even days later if I let it dry out well).

Cheaper paper/cloth bagged tea I don't bother with. Drink it once and throw it away. Same with some of my flavored teas (I currently have a Chocolate Puerh that just wouldn't do well a second time through due to the chocolate).

I do steep the strawberry puerh from Teavana twice - it's really nice for 2 infusions
