TYPICAL PREPARATIONS:

Tea. To make raspberry leaf tea, pour 1 cup (240 ml) of boiling water over 1 or 2 teaspoons (3-5 grams) of dried leaf. Close the teapot and allow to stand for 10 minutes, then sweeten to taste. During pregnancy, drink 2 to 3 cups daily. Drink warm. Many herbal teas include raspberry to "stabilize" the other ingredients. May also be taken as a capsule, though rare.

Safe dosages for children under the age of 6 and for persons with liver or kidney disease have not been established.
