Asker: There's also "Pulvermischdose" in the catalogue and it's a different product. Also those look like really big pieces of equipment, this little guy is just 3.5 litres.

agree  Chris Pr: Substitute 'powder' for 'tea' and we have the first correct use of mixer/blender...An obscure source term anyway that has little English equivalence...

Asker: It's not a storage container, just a tin used to mix herbal teas, which are given to patients in bags afterward. I'm going with herbal tea mixing tin.

tea brewing pot


Explanation:
This is a very specific device for brewing as well as pouring the tea that you make with leaves as opposed to teabags. This is quite common for coffee too - both in plunger form as well as more like this.

It is referring to tea. These are mixtures of medicinal herbs, which can be taken in the form of a tea and are sold by a chemist.
Tea mixing tin/can doesn't seem to exist with regards chemists here.
Maybe the reason the term is difficult to find in English is because herbal medicine does not have the same standing in other countries as it does in Germany, Switzerland.... Our chemists sell pharmaceutical medicines and do not make up tea mixes... for people.
