In a medium-sized saucepan, add about 1-quart filtered water, 1/2 cup of your tea blend, and 1 cup of organic sugar.  Bring it to a boil.

Turn it off, and let it sit and cool for at least 30 minutes.  It's also steeping and getting stronger at the same time.

Strain the tea blend and pour it into a 1-gallon glass jar.  I just put my mesh strainer over the glass jar and do this in one step.  When you do this, it's really important that it's cool, around room temperature, so you don't hurt the SCOBY.

To this, add your starter kombucha and a SCOBY (use, ideally, at least 2 cups of starter kombucha for a consistent brew).  Get one from a friend, or buy one online.  They are on Amazon and basically everywhere now.  You can use regular kombucha and a regular SCOBY to do this -- I initially transferred one from my black tea jars to this herbal jar.  Now, I have SCOBYs that were always grown in my herbal jars.

Secure a loose cloth or coffee filter over the top of the jar to keep out the bugs, and set this aside for 10 - 14 days.
