DESCRIPTION: Recognized for its sweet fruits and pleasant tasting leaves, raspberry has been a cherished plant for hundreds of years. Native to many parts of Europe, North America, and western Asia, Rubus idaeus is an easily cultivated member of the Rose family. Raspberry leaves are generally drunk as a delicious raspberry leaf tea, with a flavor that resembles black tea. Red raspberry leaf is also popular in herbal infusion blends for both its taste and healthful qualities. Like the fruit, raspberry leaf is quite nutritious and is a good source of carotenes, vitamin C, magnesium, calcium and other minerals. A high tannin content lends the leaf astringent qualities.
CAUTION: Do not use during pregnancy without medical supervision due to the risk of premature delivery. We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.
