Nettle Leaf is a traditional green herbal leaf with a naturally earthy, grassy flavour and a gentle savoury edge. Long enjoyed as a simple herbal infusion, nettle is valued for its clean, leafy character and smooth everyday drinkability. It makes a pleasant tea on its own, especially for those who enjoy green, herbaceous flavours. Nettle leaf also works beautifully as a base in loose-leaf tea blends, pairing well with softer herbs such as peppermint, lemon balm, spearmint and raspberry leaf, or with more robust botanicals like dandelion leaf, alfalfa and horsetail. Because of its mild profile and versatile nature, nettle leaf is a useful ingredient for wellness-style tea blends, seasonal herbal blends, green herb infusions and traditional loose-leaf tea recipes. How to Use Add 1–2 teaspoons of dried nettle leaf to a cup or teapot. Cover with freshly boiled water and steep for 5–10 minutes, then strain. Enjoy on its own or blend with other herbs to create your own loose-leaf herbal tea. Ingredients Nettle Leaf.
