Olive Leaves come from the Olea europaea tree, long associated with Mediterranean cooking and culinary traditions. These slender, silvery-green leaves have a naturally mild, slightly bitter, herbaceous flavor that works well in both culinary and herbal applications. Olive leaves are commonly steeped to make a mild herbal tea, appreciated for its earthy taste and refreshing aroma. They can also be used to gently infuse broths, marinades, and slow-cooked dishes with a subtle Mediterranean note. Beyond their culinary uses, Olive Leaves contain naturally occurring compounds such as oleuropein and have a long history of traditional use across the Mediterranean region. Whether sipped as a tea or added to recipes for a light herbal touch, Olive Leaves offer simple, authentic Mediterranean flavor with a long history of traditional use. Botanical Name: Olea europaea Also known as: Olive Leaf, Olive Tree Leaves, European Olive Leaves, Oleaster Leaves, Olive Leaf Tea
