Happy Baby Tea




A fulfilling tea for the whole family. Great for increasing breast milk production and loaded with nutrients. Especially easy to make this time of the year in the pacific northwest, as you can pick your own nettles and dry them yourself. Calming and nutritious!


You'll need:
Big tea pot and tea strainer
3 TBS nettles (dried)
1 TBS fennel seed
1 TBS chamomile
Let the tea sit and soak for 1-2 hours or overnight. It is especially good when still hot. Mother's can enjoy 1-3 times a day, but beware that it may increase you milk flow too much. Enjoy without sugar due to the naturally sweet taste of fennel.
