A tea doll is a traditional Innu doll that served both as a children's toy and as a cache of tea.[1][2] Known as Innikueu in Innu, the dolls were stuffed with tea that could be recovered and used by hunters in times of need.[3] The dolls were carried by the children of hunters, to save weight on the hunt.[4] Once the tea had been consumed, the doll was re-stuffed with grass or leaves.[4][5]
