Special Notes

Midwives brew is a traditional herbal tea blend that's been used for centuries to support women's health during pregnancy and labor. Red raspberry leaf tea is believed to help tone the uterus and prepare the body for childbirth. The combination of warming spices and honey creates a soothing, comforting drink. This tea should be consumed in moderation and it's always best to consult with a healthcare provider before using herbal remedies during pregnancy. The tea can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
