From Mountain Rose Herbs

Raspberry leaves are among the most pleasant-tasting of all the herbal remedies, with a taste much like black tea, without the caffeine. Raspberries were said to have been discovered by the Olympian gods themselves while searching for berries on Mount Ida. Raspberries are indigenous to Asia Minor and North America, with the first real records of domestication coming from the writings of Palladius, a Roman agriculturist. By Medieval times it had a great many uses, including the juices which were used in paintings and illuminated manuscripts. King Edward the 1st (1272-1307) was said to be the first to call for mass cultivation of raspberries, whose popularity spread quickly throughout Europe. Teas of raspberry leaves were given to women of the Cherokee, Iroquois, and Mohawk nations in North America, and have earned approval of the authoritative British Herbal Compendium.

Typical Preparations:
Tea. To make raspberry leaf tea, pour 1 cup (240 ml) of boiling water over 1 or 2 teaspoons (3-5 grams) of dried leaf. Close the teapot and allow to stand for 10 minutes, then sweeten to taste. During pregnancy, drink 2 to 3 cups daily. Drink warm.

I drink this mainly for balancing hormones and my Skin. Raspberry Leaf is a really great herb for women. I actually like the taste of this herbal tea quite a bit as well. It’s even better with a little milk and honey. Mountain Rose Herbs buying it in bulk is the cheapest I’ve found it. Occasionally I do also buy the Traditional Medicinal boxed tea bags of it though.

This is a queued tasting note.

Just another mug from back when it was everyone’s least favourite time of the month. Earthy, grassy, a bit sweet. Not bad. I’m learning to like this one more each time I try it.

I love it with honey :P
Instant relief of the bad moments

Gotta agree with you both; although I’ve had some greener oolongs that could give raspberry leaf a run for its money.

Jillian

lol, I never looked at it that way but you’re right.

ha. I’ve been accused of drinking hemp tea before… while drinking raspberry leaf.

I ordered this because I am currently pregnant, and its THE herb that is recommended to pregnant women. It has a mild, grassy taste somewhat like a milder green tea. It tastes like it would work well in blends, but I’ve yet to try that. I like getting herbs from Rose Mountain since they are cheap, good quality, and organic.
