Pour out the brew, saving the steeped leaves
Re-steep the same leaves with more boiling water for the recommended steeping times.

The Whole Leaf Tea Value
Where else can you find a luxury that allows you to step back from the world and gain a fresh new outlook on life while also improving your health... for as little as a quarter? That's right. Whole or loose leaf teas are one of the best values to be found. One ounce will make 10-15 6-ounce cups of tea, depending on how strong you like it. Yield can vary as some teas are light while others are more dense, but whole leaf teas are clearly one of the best values to be found.
