Product Description
Frontier Co-op Organic Red Raspberry Leaf (Rubus idaeus L.) is a pleasant-tasting, caffeine-free herb commonly used in teas and DIY herbal body care items and products. Despite what the name would suggest, red raspberry leaves don't taste like raspberries at all. Their flavor is very earthy and vegetal, with a slight bitterness.
Our fresh raspberry leaves combine well with other kinds of herbs to provide a flavorful and robust boost to beverages. Red raspberry leaves are sweeter and bolder than leaves used in other teas. Raspberry carries tannins that contribute to the slightly-acidic note of this flavorful herb. To prepare as a tea, pour 8 oz. boiling water over 1 Tbsp. of herb. Cover and steep for 5-10 minutes, strain and serve immediately.
Our Bulgarian farmers remove the young and vibrant leaves from the cane, wash and dry them thoroughly, and process them for a high-quality blend that provides superior flavor. These leaves are 100% certified organic, kosher certified, and non-irradiated.
