Description

For its delectable fruits and pleasantly flavorful leaves, raspberry has held a special place for centuries. Originating from various regions including Europe, North America, and western Asia, Rubus idaeus belongs to the Rose family and is easily grown. Raspberry leaves are commonly enjoyed as a delightful raspberry leaf tea, offering a taste reminiscent of black tea. Moreover, red raspberry leaf is a favored ingredient in herbal infusion blends, prized for both its flavor and its beneficial properties.

Among herbal remedies, raspberry leaves stand out for their delightful taste, akin to black tea but without the caffeine. Legend has it that raspberries were discovered by the Olympian gods themselves while foraging for berries on Mount Ida. The earliest documented domestication of raspberries traces back to Palladius, a Roman agriculturist. Throughout Medieval times, raspberries found multifarious uses, including their juices employed in paintings and illuminated manuscripts. King Edward the 1st (1272-1307) was reportedly the first to advocate for widespread cultivation of raspberries, igniting their popularity across Europe. Additionally, teas made from raspberry leaves were traditionally given to women of Cherokee, Iroquois, and Mohawk descent in North America, earning recognition in the esteemed British Herbal Compendium.
