About Healthy Pregnancy

The nutrient-dense cup for the second and third trimesters.

Red raspberry leaf sits at the center of this blend, an herb Western midwifery has recommended for centuries as a uterine tonic. Nettle leaf brings minerals: iron, calcium, magnesium, the nutrients pregnancy depletes. Spearmint and ginger settle the stomach and brighten the cup. The result is a grassy, minty, gently warming tea that tastes like nourishment, not medicine.

Why these four herbs, in Western midwifery tradition.

Red raspberry leaf contains an alkaloid called fragarine, studied in herbalism for its toning effect on the smooth muscle of the uterus. The tradition holds that steady consumption in the second and third trimesters may help prepare the body for labor. Nettle leaf is one of the most mineral-dense herbs in the Western pharmacopeia, traditionally used to support iron levels during pregnancy. Ginger is a carminative, used across cultures to ease nausea and settle digestion. Spearmint makes the whole thing drinkable. This is a nutritive tonic, not a treatment. Always consult your midwife or obstetrician before adding herbal blends to your pregnancy routine, especially in the first trimester.

The afternoon ritual.

Steep 1.5 teaspoons in 8 ounces of full-boil water for 6 minutes. Drink warm, in the afternoon or early evening. The minerals in the nettle work best when absorbed steadily over weeks, not days. Make it a daily practice. Blended in our Salem, Oregon kitchen.

Nettle Leaf

Urtica dioica

Pacific Northwest & Central Europe

Raspberry Leaf

Rubus idaeus

Ginger

Zingiber officinale

Spearmint Leaf

Mentha spicata

Sweet, cooling mint, rounder and softer than peppermint.

In the cup

Spearmint is the gentler cousin of peppermint, carrying far less menthol, so the flavor reads sweeter and rounder, cool without the sharp bite. It is the mint of Moroccan tea and the garden bed alike. Bright and refreshing, it lifts a blend and finishes clean, and much of it grows here in the Pacific Northwest.

Nettle Leaf

Urtica dioica

A deep-green, mineral-rich leaf, a spring-tonic classic.

In the cup

Nettle is the same plant that stings in the wild, but dried and steeped it is completely tame and deeply nourishing. The cup is green and earthy, close to a vegetal broth. Rich in minerals, nettle has been a spring tonic across Europe and North America for centuries, and it grows abundantly in the Pacific Northwest.

Raspberry Leaf

Rubus idaeus

A green, mild leaf with deep roots in women's wellness tradition.

In the cup

Raspberry leaf comes from the same plant as the berry, though the leaf tastes green and mild, closer to black tea than fruit. It is a storied herb in women's wellness, used by midwives and herbalists for generations. Gentle and grounding, it forms the backbone of our blends for women and expecting mothers.

Ginger

Zingiber officinale

Warming and peppery, long used to settle the stomach after a meal.

In the cup

Ginger is the spicy underground stem, or rhizome, of the ginger plant, used fresh, dried, or crystallized. It brings sharp, warming heat and a touch of natural sweetness. Ginger has been a digestive staple across Indian, Chinese, and Western traditions for thousands of years, most often as the cup after a heavy meal.

A few notes from our teamakers.

The Daily Tonic
Brew 1.5 teaspoons in 8 ounces of full-boil water for 6 minutes. Drink warm, once a day in the afternoon or early evening. The minerals in nettle absorb best with steady, daily consumption over weeks. The midwifery ritual.

Iced Pregnancy Tea with Lemon
Brew double-strength (2 teaspoons in 8 ounces, 6 minutes). Pour over ice. Add a squeeze of fresh lemon and a drizzle of honey. The lemon brightens the grassy notes, the honey softens the ginger. A cooling, mineral-rich drink for the third-trimester summer.

The Evening Wind-Down
Brew the same way, but drink it warm an hour before bed. The spearmint settles, the ginger warms, the ritual of sitting with a cup slows the body down. Pair with a book or a quiet conversation. The caffeine-free cup for the end of the day.

Your Questions About Healthy Pregnancy, Answered.

When should I start drinking this tea?

Western midwifery tradition recommends waiting until the second trimester, around week 13, before introducing red raspberry leaf. The herb is most commonly consumed in the third trimester as the body prepares for labor. Always consult your midwife or obstetrician before adding any herbal blend to your pregnancy routine, especially in the first trimester.

Does it taste medicinal?

No. The spearmint and ginger balance the grassy, vegetal character of the raspberry leaf and nettle. The cup tastes like a refreshing mint tea with a warming ginger finish, not like a supplement. Earthy, yes. Medicinal, no.

Is this caffeine-free?

Yes. This is a 100% herbal blend with zero caffeine. You can drink it any time of day or night without affecting your sleep.
