Blueberry
Blueberries (Vaccinium angustifolium - lowbush and Vaccinium corymbosum – highbush) are native to North America and rich in vitamins C and K, fiber, and anthocyanins—potent antioxidants. They're associated with numerous health benefits, including improved heart health, brain function, and reduced inflammation. Blueberries are used to treat infections and digestive issues, and blueberry leaf tea is used for blood sugar regulation.
Blueberry tea is typically made from dried berries, leaves, or a combination of both. When made from the fruit, the tea has a naturally sweet, slightly tart flavor with a rich berry aroma and a subtle floral note. Leaf-based blueberry tea has a milder, greener flavor, reminiscent of mild black tea with a hint of berry. It's known for its soothing qualities, blood sugar regulation, and urinary tract health.

New Roots was created with breastfeeding parents in mind, especially those looking for a lactation tea without the strong fennel or licorice flavor found in many traditional blends. Milky oats, rooibos, oat straw, nettle leaf, lemon balm, alfalfa, marshmallow root, rose petals, lemon verbena, chamomile, and orange peel create a smooth, softly sweet cup with gentle oat notes, bright citrus, and delicate floral and herbal undertones. While it makes a thoughtful companion for those breastfeeding, New Roots is also a beautiful everyday blend for anyone seeking a moment to nurture, nourish, and replenish—whether you’re caring for a new baby, recovering from a busy season, or simply giving yourself a little extra care.
