Rubus idaeus · Dried Leaves · Traditional Herbal Infusions

Softly earthy and gently herbaceous, Raspberry Leaf has been appreciated in traditional European herbal infusions for generations.

Raspberry Leaf (Rubus idaeus) comes from the familiar red raspberry plant, a perennial shrub with characteristic toothed leaves and delicate pale flowers. It is the leaf, rather than the fruit, that is traditionally gathered for loose-leaf botanical preparations.

Our dried Raspberry Leaf has a mild green, subtly tannic character, making it an interesting base for botanical blends with Nettle, Rose Petals and other complementary herbs.

At Flowers from my Meadow, we keep it pure and uncomplicated: dried Raspberry Leaf, carefully packed for your herbal pantry.

How to Prepare

For a traditional infusion: Add 1–2 teaspoons of dried Raspberry Leaf to 250ml freshly boiled water. Cover and steep for 10–15 minutes, then strain. Consult a healthcare professional about whether this herb is appropriate for you, particularly during pregnancy.

Precautions

Pregnancy: Raspberry Leaf has traditionally been used in pregnancy, but evidence that it improves labour outcomes is weak and safety has not been adequately established. Do not use during pregnancy without guidance from your obstetric healthcare professional. Seek professional guidance before using while breastfeeding.

If taking prescription medication or managing a medical condition, consult a healthcare professional before regular medicinal use. Discontinue if sensitivity occurs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Raspberry Leaf the same as dried raspberries?
No. This 20g product contains dried leaves of Rubus idaeus, not the raspberry fruit. The leaves have a mild, leafy taste with softly tannic notes.
How do I make a Raspberry Leaf infusion?
Cover 1–2 teaspoons of the dried leaves with 250ml freshly boiled water, steep for 10–15 minutes and strain. The leaves also blend well with complementary floral botanicals.
Is Raspberry Leaf automatically suitable during pregnancy?
No. Although it has a traditional association with pregnancy, evidence of benefit for labour is weak and safety is not well established. Consult your obstetric healthcare professional before using it during pregnancy.
