Spoiler
It depends on the internal design of the spout. If it's connected directly to the body with no strange internal tubing then about 8oz at most

A bit technical Stuart, (it's just a simple drawing), but you are on the correct side of the scale.

...as it wasn't specifically stated as being liquid, it could be around 64 ounces of tea leaves. The total weight depends how many leaves can go up the spout.
