Raspberry Leaf Teabags

Description

Raspberries are a well-known and well-loved summer treat, but it’s the raspberry leaf you’ll find in this tea. With a silvery under leaf that is reminiscent of the moon’s glow, European and Native American women have used raspberry leaf for thousands of years for menstrual support, to treat menstrual cramps, and to tone the uterus. Gently nurturing, this tea has a full-bodied robust taste like a delicate and mildly fruity black tea without the caffeine. A prolific plant that does well in temperate environments, Traditional Medicinals’ raspberry leaf grows wild and is gathered by hand in the Gorazde collection region of Bosnia. Picked by a group of collector families and neighbors, the young leaves are best when picked in early summer before the fruits develop. Living on small plots of land nestled amongst the gorgeous rolling hills and meadows of the region, sustainable wild collection represents an important source of income for these families.
