Let’s dive into the ingredients!  D Tea F is a blend of damiana leaf, rose petals, lemon balm, hibiscus, ashwagandha and rose black tea. Our herbalist selected these ingredients for their aphrodisiac properties, but they are also great for promoting wellness in many other ways! Damiana Leaf - The flavonoids in damiana plants were found to have pro-sexual effects.
