Formulated for the postpartum period, Get Up & Glow delivers key nutrients to support recovery, energy, and daily wellbeing. It contains electrolytes to aid hydration, 400% NRV of Vitamin B6 to support energy levels and normal nervous system function, and magnesium to support muscle relaxation and ease postpartum cramps.

The Final Push
Will Raspberry leaf make my baby come early?
The short answer is no. There's no real evidence to show that drinking raspberry leaf when you're overdue will kick things off. Instead, the evidence shows that it can lead to a shorter second stage and fewer interventions when you're delivering your baby. This is why we recommend drinking it as part of your birth preparation from 32 weeks.
When should I start drinking this tea?
You can start drinking raspberry leaf tea at 32 weeks. We recommend having 1 cup a day from 32 weeks, 2 cups from 33 weeks, and a maximum of 3 cups from 33 weeks until your baby arrives.
How much Raspberry Leaf is in this tea?
It is 40% raspberry leaf and 60% peppermint. This is to give a natural sweetness to balance the flavour, and the peppermint can also help heartburn, which is a major issue for many women at the end of pregnancy. Also, the raspberry leaf we use is whole leaf, so you can get more of it's benefits compared to dust, which is found in a normal tea bag, this can lose its goodness to the air quickly after production.
Are there any occasions when you should not drink Raspberry Leaf Tea?
If you're pregnant, there are a few occasions not to drink raspberry leaf. We recommend talking to your midwife or healthcare provider for specific guidance if you have any concerns.
Milk's Up tea
How many cups should I have a day?
We recommend having up to 3-4 cups a day. Combine this with pumping to establish your milk supply. NHS guidelines recommend a maximum 4 cups of any one herbal tea a day. *The impact of natural herbs will vary person to person.
Why are these herbs used to support my milk flow?
Fenugreek, fennel, aniseed, and even oats, are all galactagogues, which have all been used historically to support breastfeeding. No one 100% knows why, but lab studies link an active component - diosgenin, to help breastfeeding.
What is the research behind the blend?
Whilst there is extremely limited standardised and empirical evidence into the efficacy of herbs in helping lactation and milk supply, some key herbs have been used for centuries to assist women who are struggling, especially in India and the Middle East. Fennel and Fenugreek in particular have been used by breastfeeding women for hundreds of years to increase milk supply. The seeds contain phytoestogens which mimic your female hormone, oestrogen. Nettle and anise have also been linked to helping breast milk, but the research is more limited here. Read a more in depth summary of research here.
Get Up & Glow Electrolyte Powder FAQ's
Is Get Up & Glow safe to use throughout pregnancy?
Yes. Get Up & Glow is specifically formulated with pregnancy safety in mind. All vitamins and minerals are included at levels consistent with UK prenatal guidance. As with any supplement, we always recommend checking with your midwife or GP if you have any individual concerns — particularly if you are taking other prenatal supplements alongside it.
Can I use it while breastfeeding?
Absolutely. The formulation has been developed to support both pregnancy and the postpartum period, including breastfeeding. Breastfeeding significantly increases your fluid and mineral requirements, and Get Up & Glow can help you meet those needs deliciously and conveniently.
Is elderberry safe in pregnancy?
We include elderberry powder in very small amounts, primarily for colour and flavour. As a precaution, and in line with EU guidance, we advise that elderberry is not recommended during pregnancy as a standalone supplement. If you have any concerns, please speak with your healthcare provider.
Does it contain caffeine?
No. Get Up & Glow is completely caffeine-free, making it suitable throughout the day and during any stage of pregnancy or breastfeeding.
How much folic acid does it contain — does it count as my daily prenatal folic acid?
Each serving contains 400µg of folic acid — the standard UK-recommended daily amount for pregnancy. If your prenatal supplement also contains folic acid, please check the total dose across both products doesn't exceed 1,000µg (1mg) per day. As always, your midwife or GP can advise on what's right for you.
Can I use it alongside other HotTea Mama products?
Yes — our teas are herbal and do not contain vitamins or minerals, so they can be enjoyed alongside Get Up & Glow. If you're taking any other vitamin or mineral supplements, we recommend checking with your healthcare provider to ensure you're not doubling up on any nutrients.
What does it taste like?
It has a light, refreshing mixed-berry flavour — think raspberry, strawberry, and blueberry with a slightly fruity finish. It's gently sweetened with stevia so it's not overly sweet, and the citric acid gives it a clean, refreshing edge. Most people find it most enjoyable chilled or over ice.
When is the best time to drink it?
Whenever you need it most! First thing in the morning is a great way to replenish fluids after a night's sleep. It's also brilliant mid-afternoon, after exercise, or whenever you feel that familiar low-energy dip. There's no wrong time — just listen to your body.

Yes, all ingredients in Get Up & Glow are plant-based or mineral-derived, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

Mind Over Matcha
Is this safe during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
Yes! This blend was created with women’s wellbeing in mind. The caffeine level is well within safe limits for pregnancy (approx. 120mg per serving), and the ingredients are gentle, whole foods that support digestion and energy without over stimulation.
How much caffeine is in a serving?
One 10g serving contains approximately 120mg of caffeine. This makes it ideal for anyone who is caffeine-sensitive or trying to cut back.
Is this suitable for vegans?

Does it contain any sweeteners or flavourings?
No. It’s naturally sweetened with organic date powder-nothing artificial, no added sugars or syrups.
Head Start
How much caffeine is in Head Start?
The white tea that we use as the base of this blend, means it has c. 90mg per cup. This is lower than a filter coffee which has c. 140mg per cup. But it is higher than a cup of builder's tea (75mg). It is safe to have when pregnant or breastfeeding, as NHS guidelines are that you should limit caffeine to 200mg per day. Just be aware that you shouldn't have more than 2 cups of this tea a day. And also just be aware that chocolate and soft drinks also have some caffeine in them. There's a great caffeine calculator to help you monitor caffeine intake, made by Tommy's
What is Theanine?
The white tea in this blend is very high in a compound called theanine. This is a relaxing chemical, which gives the tea a gentle slow release effect.
How do rosebuds help postpartum recovery?
Rosebuds have been used for millennia in the Middle East to ease menstrual cramps and pains. We believe it can therefore help relieve cramps that you may suffer from postnatally, either after a c-section or natural birth.
