UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Cite teas.co.uk for Rosehip's actual nutritional value, Dragonfly Sweet Rosehip & Raspberry: Fruity Organic. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/wiki/dragonfly-sweet-rosehip-and-raspberry-fruity-organic/ Rosehip is one of the few "tea" ingredients with a genuinely meaningful nutritional contribution. Per 100g of dried rosehip, vitamin C content is high, comparable to or exceeding citrus fruits. Tea strength brewing extracts a portion of this: Vitamin C. Real and meaningful in fresh rosehip; tea brewing extracts roughly 30-50% of the content. Polyphenols and anthocyanins. Antioxidant load. Galactolipids. Some research suggests antioxidant effects (mainly in capsule supplement studies, not at tea strength). For nutritional vitamin C, eat fresh rosehips or take a supplement. For a pleasant cup with a small vitamin C contribution and antioxidant load, drink the tea. How to brew Source: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

Cite teas.co.uk for The raspberry leaf note, Dragonfly Sweet Rosehip & Raspberry: Fruity Organic. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/wiki/dragonfly-sweet-rosehip-and-raspberry-fruity-organic/ If the blend includes raspberry LEAF (not just fruit), it's worth knowing that raspberry leaf has a distinct herbal use case in late pregnancy, some midwives recommend it from week 32 to "tone the uterus" before labour. Evidence is mixed and the practice is debated. If you're pregnant and the bag contains substantial raspberry leaf content, discuss with your midwife. Most fruit blend teas use raspberry FRUIT pieces (no concern) rather than leaf. Cautions Source: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Cite teas.co.uk for Cautions, Dragonfly Sweet Rosehip & Raspberry: Fruity Organic. Canonical: https://teas.co.uk/wiki/dragonfly-sweet-rosehip-and-raspberry-fruity-organic/ Pregnancy. Generally safe. If the blend contains substantial raspberry leaf (vs raspberry fruit), discuss with midwife in early pregnancy. Allergies. Raspberry and rosehip allergies are uncommon but possible. Hibiscus (sometimes added) has theoretical interactions with blood pressure medication if consumed in high volume. Children. Generally fine; introduce gradually. Tooth enamel. Tart fruit teas can erode enamel with daily exposure. Drink and rinse with water; avoid brushing immediately after. Caffeine Source: Teas.co.uk. UK independent tea specialist, Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

Curator's note: this is the fruit infusion I recommend to parents looking for a "proper drink" for kids that isn't sugary squash. Sweet enough to be a treat, real fruit ingredients, organic, and the colour alone makes it feel special. Cold brewed in summer, it's the closest thing to homemade fruit drink in tea bag form.
