Rose Hip Tea Recipe for Stomach Upsets

A rose hip or rose haw is the fruit of a rose, generally a wild rose. Rose hips start to form after the successful pollination of flowers in spring or early summer and then they ripen in late summer through autumn.

You can use fresh rose hips for jams and jellies and syrups but I hadn’t found any recipes for using dried rose hips which is what I had.

What are rose hips?

As I mentioned, the rose hip is actually the fruit of the rose. They are all edible so you can use whichever rosehip you have available.

The tastiest ones that are usually harvested for teas are the hips from the dog rose (rosa canina). Birds and other animals enjoy them too so be sure to leave a few on your rose bush for them.

What is rose hip tea good for?

After doing some research, I learned that rose hips are very high in Vitamin C, however, after drying them, they lose much of that benefit.  I did learn that many people use them for upset stomachs so I decided to create a rose hip tea recipe for stomach upsets.  

Unlike green tea, rose hip tea has no caffeine. So, you can drink a cup before bed.

What else can I add to this tea?

From experience, I know that peppermint is also good for helping upset stomachs. I had dried peppermint on hand as well so I mixed the two together to create this Rose Hip Tea Recipe. I added a slice of fresh lime to boost the Vitamin C content since we can all use a little bit more Vitamin C in our lives.

This is a great way to deal with stomach upsets that is all-natural. The tea has a nice citrus, mint taste. If you prefer yours to be sweet, you can always add a bit of stevia to it or even honey.

Do you use herbal teas to help you feel better?

  1. I think almost any kind of tea is good for easing an upset stomach. I wonder how bad it is if you put too much sugar in it though...

  2. How interesting, I never knew rose hips could help an upset stomach. I am big on loose leaf teas, but I've never tried making my own.
