teabag

Dunkable leaf sachet

A teabag is a small porous pouch containing tea leaves, designed to steep in hot water.

The bag allows brewing without loose leaves.

As a verb, teabag has a vulgar slang sense: to lower one's scrotum onto another person's face, the motion resembling dipping a teabag.

This may be sexual or a prank, especially in gaming culture where it mocks defeated opponents.
