What is raspberry leaf tea?
Red raspberry leaf (Rubus idaeus) comes from the leaves of the raspberry plant rather than the fruit. Rich in tannins and minerals, it has been used in European and Native American herbal traditions for centuries as a women's reproductive health tonic.

How and when to drink it

Combining raspberry leaf with other botanicals
While plain red raspberry leaf makes an excellent base, pairing it with anti-inflammatory herbs creates a more complete solution:
- Ginger: For active prostaglandin inhibition.
- Spearmint: For androgen support.
- Milk Thistle: For liver metabolic support.
- Orange peel and lemongrass: For flavor so you finish the cup.
Hormone Bliss Tea includes organic red raspberry leaf alongside 5 complementary herbs.
FAQ
Does red raspberry leaf tea taste like raspberries?
No. It tastes like an earthy black tea with a mild herbal finish, without any fruit sweetness. In Hormone Bliss Tea, orange peel and lemongrass brighten that base.
Can I drink it only on my period?
You can, but many people do better with luteal-week cups as prep, then continue through days 1-3.
Is it safe every day?
For most non-pregnant adults, a food-like tea cup is fine. If you are pregnant, talk to your clinician first. Stop if pain worsens.
Where can I buy a raspberry leaf blend?
