A Floral Herbal Tea of Raspberry Leaf, Rose & Ginger

Menstrual Support Tea is a caffeine-free, loose-leaf herbal tea for the days before and during a period. Raspberry leaf, a long-standing staple of women's herbal tradition, is blended with cramp bark, rose petals, chamomile, skullcap, lemon balm, ginger and nettle. Whole leaves, bark and flowers are used throughout, and each serving can be steeped twice.

The Herbs

Cramp Bark: traditionally used to ease menstrual cramping, muscular tension, and feelings of heaviness or congestion associated with the menstrual cycle.

Raspberry Leaf: traditionally used to help tone and condition the muscles of the womb to support a smooth, balanced flow.

Chamomile a soothing aromatic herb, helping to ease stress-related digestive discomfort and promote relaxation during the premenstrual phase.

Skullcap: provides nourishment and helps to ease physical tension, cyclical worry, and emotional agitation.

Rose Petals: a long history of traditional use for menstrual and emotional wellbeing. Works to ease pelvic congestion, helping to bring comfort to irregular or heavy cycles.

Lemon Balm: provides a refreshing, bright character that eases low mood and premenstrual irritability.

Ginger: acts as a warming circulatory stimulant, encouraging healthy blood flow and oxygenation to clear stagnation and ease cramps associated with menstruation.

Nettle Leaf: traditionally used to replenish vital nutrients lost during a heavy flow.

Taste Profile: Gently floral, opening with rose, chamomile and lemon balm, settling into the green notes of nettle and raspberry leaf, with a warming finish from ginger.

Weight: 40g loose leaf (makes approximately 25 to 30 cups)

Format: Loose leaf, for a teapot or infuser

Caffeine: Caffeine-free

Additives: No added flavourings, colourings or preservatives

Nettle Leaf (Urtica dioica), Rose Petals (Rosa damascena), Cramp Bark (Viburnum opulus), Skullcap (Scutellaria lateriflora), Raspberry Leaf (Rubus idaeus), Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis), Ginger Root (Zingiber officinale), Chamomile Flowers (Matricaria chamomilla)

Our Menstrual Support Tea fits easily into your cyclic routine:

The Infusion Method: Add 1 teaspoon of the loose herbs into a teapot or an infuser cup. Pour freshly boiled water directly over the blend. Cover immediately and let the herbs steep for 10 - 15 minutes. Strain, let cool to an enjoyable temperature, and drink.

Bonus Infusion: You can reuse the same serving of herbs for a second cup later in the day by adding fresh boiling water.

When to Drink: 1 cup between meals, 1 - 3 times a day. For optimal results, start drinking this tea 2 - 3 days before your period is due to begin and continue throughout your cycle.

Health Notice

Menstrual Support Tea is a herbal tea and is not intended to replace medical treatment. Anyone managing a diagnosed condition such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids or a bleeding disorder, or taking prescription hormonal therapies or blood-thinning medication, should speak to their doctor before use.

Lighten the Diary: Leave room in the first few days for rest.

Eat Well in the Week Before: Leafy greens, pulses and seeds, with less sugar, alcohol and caffeine.

Cramp bark is the herb most associated with period cramps in Western herbal practice, traditionally paired with ginger for warmth. Menstrual Support Tea contains both, with raspberry leaf, nettle, rose petal, skullcap, lemon balm and chamomile.

Cramp bark (Viburnum opulus) is the guelder rose of British hedgerows. The bark is the part used, and it has carried that common name in herbal practice for centuries because of what it was traditionally taken for.

Most people begin a few days before their period is due and continue through the first days, one to three cups daily. Steep covered for ten to fifteen minutes.

This tea has been created by our Medical Herbalists to support natural hormonal balance, ease the uncomfortable physical sensations associated with your monthly cycle, and calm premenstrual syndrome (PMS).

The whole-plant ingredients in this blend contain natural antispasmodics and circulatory stimulants that help relax the smooth muscles of the pelvic area, reduce localized tissue congestion, and calm cyclical mood swings.

We recommend drinking 1 cup between your main meals, 1–3 times a day. You can enjoy 1–2 cups daily for gentle balance, or scale up to 3 cups per day during your actual period.

Yes, this is a balanced, caffeine-free herbal blend made entirely from high-quality botanicals. It is perfectly safe to enjoy every day if you wish, though it is especially beneficial around your menstrual window.

See your doctor if your periods are very heavy, if the pain is severe enough to stop you working, if the pattern changes, or if you bleed between periods. Those need proper assessment rather than managing at home.

The tea is the broader eight-herb formula and the one most people start with. The tincture matches it closely and acts faster, as liquids are absorbed more quickly. There is also a Menstrual Balm for applying to the lower abdomen.

No, this functional infusion contains herbs that are not suitable for use during pregnancy or lactation.

We choose loose-leaf cuts because standard paper tea bags often use finely ground herbal dust that quickly loses its volatile benefits. Many bags also contain hidden plastics, glues, or bleaches. Loose herbs keep the active plant compounds intact and encourage a more traditional, mindful brewing practice.

A 40g tin provides approximately 25 - 30 servings, depending on how strong you like your tea. Because our loose roots and barks are highly resilient, you can easily brew the same portion of herbs a second time for another cup later in the day.

Yes, this blend is entirely caffeine-free and will not disturb your energy levels, nervous system, or sleep patterns.

While the active botanical compounds remain stable if the tea cools down, our medical herbalists recommend drinking it warm. Warm liquids support healthy local circulation and are much gentler on sensitive internal systems, helping you get the most comfort from the herbs.

Customer photo review of Menstrual Support Tea (40g)

Lovely tea! After 40 I started having heavy periods and a lot of pain. This tea really helps me relieve these symptoms. Also - an unexpected benefit - I was much less puffy during my period days thanks to drinking this tea. Thank you ZenMaitri :)

Menstrual Support Tea (40g)

Great tea, very relaxing for cramps etc. Great buy and service

Menstrual Support Tea

It worked perfectly despite the fact that I did't use it the way it was asked to be used.

Menstrual Support Tea (40g)

This helped regulate my cycle - I went off the pill a year ago and my cycle became extremely irregular. I made this tea consistently once a day and within the first month my cycle became regular at around 30 days (used to be 45-60 days before!)
