How to prepare

Dosage: 4–8 oz (120–240 ml), once daily.

  • Blend or cold-press: Wild raspberry leaves + Water + Honey + Lemon + Ginger.
  • Strain if desired and serve fresh.
  • Best consumed within 30 minutes of preparation for maximum nutrient retention.

Best time to drink

Best in the morning on an empty stomach, or 30 minutes before a meal — this maximizes nutrient absorption and avoids diluting digestive enzymes.
