Raspberry leaf tea (Rubus idaeus) is one of the most popular herbal teas for women's wellness, with a tradition of use stretching back centuries. This certified organic red raspberry leaf tea is rich in minerals including iron, calcium, and magnesium, and has long been traditionally used to tone the uterus and support the body during pregnancy. The raspberry leaf tea benefits extend beyond pregnancy, with many women enjoying it for general menstrual comfort and as a nourishing daily tonic. The flavour is mild, slightly tannic, and pleasantly earthy.

Raspberry leaf has been used in women's herbal medicine for at least 400 years. It was a staple of midwifery practice long before modern herbalism, and many Australian midwives and birth practitioners continue to recommend it today.
Raspberry leaf is generally considered safe for dogs and is sometimes included in pet supplements. It is also safe for rabbits, who enjoy the leaves as a natural snack. Not recommended for cats in large quantities.
