Nettle Tea – A Nourishing Brew from Rooted Tradition
Nettle Tea is a simple, grounding herbal infusion with a long-standing place in traditional herbal practice. Though often known for its sting in the wild, once dried and steeped, nettle transforms into a gentle, earthy tea celebrated for its nourishing qualities.
For centuries, nettle has been gathered and brewed as a seasonal tonic. Folk traditions across many cultures have used it to support vitality, bring strength to the body, and encourage natural balance from within.
Traditionally Used For:
Nutrient Nourishment
Nettle has been prized as a mineral-rich herb, valued for its naturally occurring iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins. In folk use, it’s often turned to as a gentle support for overall vitality and wellness.
Seasonal Renewal
Nettle tea was traditionally used in spring to support the body’s natural clearing processes. As a known diuretic in traditional practice, it was often included in seasonal cleansing rituals and herbal detox blends.
Joint & Muscular Comfort
Historically, nettle has been used topically and internally in folk traditions to ease stiffness and support comfortable movement, especially during colder, damper months.
Skin & Hair Vitality
In traditional beauty rituals, nettle has been infused into teas, hair rinses, and skin preparations to support a healthy glow and strengthen the body from the inside out.
Digestive Support
Nettle tea has long been brewed after meals to support digestion and to bring ease to occasional bloating or sluggishness.
Breath of Fresh Air
Some folk traditions turn to nettle during the height of pollen season, where it has been used to support clear breathing and ease seasonal discomforts.
Flavour Profile
Nettle tea offers a mild, grassy flavour with earthy, slightly vegetal undertones. It’s not overly floral or sweet—just clean and grounding. Lovely on its own or enhanced with a splash of lemon, a drizzle of honey, or paired with herbs like mint or lemon balm.
How to Brew
Use 1–2 teaspoons of dried nettle (or 1 tea bag) per cup of hot water
Steep for 5–10 minutes, covered
Strain if using loose herbs, and enjoy
Optional: Add honey, lemon, or a slice of ginger to suit your taste.
When to Enjoy

After meals: Traditionally used to ease the stomach and support digestion

A Versatile Tea Companion
Enjoy nettle on its own or blend it with other herbs like peppermint, fennel, or raspberry leaf for a more complex brew. Some even use it as a base in herbal smoothies or nourishing broths.
A Note from Tradition
Revered as a “spring tonic” and “super herb” in many cultures, nettle has been foraged and celebrated through the ages for its deeply restorative nature. A quiet powerhouse from the hedgerow, it invites you to sip in harmony with the earth’s rhythms.
