French pressed.....tea?

I love loose-leaf tea mainly because I can mix and match flavors to create my own blends.  The other day I went to brew myself a pot and couldn't find the strainer-thingamabob.  What to do??

My eyes wandered over to my french press and I thought "why not?"  I brewed a delicious cup of jasmine green tea in no time, plus I think it looks really pretty to see the tea brewing in the transparent coffee press.
