Bulk herbs and pregnancy tea

Red raspberry leaf tea is an excellent health supplement for women, especially during pregnancy. In the past, I had been given various herbal pregnancy teas, but I used the last of those a few months ago. I have been patiently impatiently wanting to order some herbs to mix up my own pregnancy tea. My herbs came this week, and I have been jumping for joy! Literally! Just ask Joshua how many times I've said "Honey, I know I already told you this, but thank you so much for the herbs!!!!!" :)

I ordered my herbs from BulkHerbStore.com [1]. It's a family-owned Christian company with great service and great herbs... and great prices, as well! I had tried a few of their herbs before, but never purchased any myself. I ordered online, and my order came promptly. One of my items was marked as "backordered" on the receipt in the box, but, that item came in the mail the very next day!! That was amazingly fast. :)

I mixed my own pregnancy tea, based on the measurements given for the pre-mixed "Mama's Red Raspberry Brew". [2]

8 parts red raspberry leaf
3 parts alfalfa
3 parts peppermint
2 parts nettle leaf

I whisked everything together, and then put it into a container in my tea drawer. I've already been really enjoying my "pregnancy tea"! :)

This handy little teapot makes it so easy to brew loose-leaf teas! (You can read my review and watch a video clip of me using it here [2]!) I love it. Yehoshua does too (that's his hand in the picture). ;)
