Tea anyone?
This tea from The Busy Botanist is the perfect gift for any new mum.
Specially designed to improve hydration and lactation, it aims to help breastfeeding mothers with their milk production.
Completely caffeine free, mums can drink it at any time of the day without having to worry about having a caffeine crash later on.
While I was breastfeeding my doctor recommended that I cut back on my caffeine intake to 300 milligrams a day but I love a hot drink, even during the summer, so I had a major stock of herbal tea and would have definitely added ‘New Mammy’ to my collection.
Made with Fennel, Fenugreek, Raspberry Leaf, Cardamom, Nettle Leaf, Ginger, Oat Flowers and Hops you’re guaranteed a flavourful cuppa.
Fenugreek has been used for a long time to help with breast milk production particularly in the Middle East and North Africa.
In fact, research has shown that fenugreek can increase milk production by as much as 900 per cent!
Made right here in Kerry, Ireland, it’s available in packs or 12 or 30 hand tied tea bags.
Founded by best friends Jo and Clair, The Busy Botanist certainly is busy, with their company providing a wide range of teas to help with everything from hangovers, to cramps and even teas to help relieve anxiety and stress.
All of their ingredients are 100 per cent organic and are free from added sugars, caffeine, fillers, artificial colours or flavours.
Tea has been used for centuries to help relieve a variety of ailments and let’s face it, who doesn’t love an excuse to throw on a brew?
New Mammy tea is available through The Busy Botanist website and is €4.95 for a regular size box and €9.50 for a large box and is something that any new mum would appreciate receiving as a small pick me up gift.
