Raspberry Leaf
Raspberry leaf tea is a herbal infusion made from the leaves of the raspberry plant (Rubus idaeus). The tea is known for its mild, slightly sweet, and earthy flavor. It has been cherished for centuries and is popularly consumed for its potential health benefits. Raspberry leaf is very rich in many vitamins and minerals such as vitamins C, E, B, phosphorus, and potassium as well as in phytonutrients.
Raspberry leaf tea is believed to help regulate menstrual cycles, reduce heavy periods, and ease menstrual cramps due to its uterine-toning properties. The tea’s antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties may promote clearer, healthier skin when consumed regularly. Due to its tannin content, it has been used to alleviate diarrhea, or used as a mouth-wash to heal mouth sores and ulcers.
To make Raspberry leaf tea, take 28 grams of Raspberry leaves. Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and add Raspberry leaves. Let steep for 10 minutes. Strain and serve. It can be served warm or cold. It tastes very similar to regular tea without the caffeine, which makes it wonderful in the evening. It can also be mixed with Nettle Leaf and Peppermint Leaf to ease nausea or bloating sensation.
