In a demanding world of motherhood, moments of quiet and self-care often feel impossible to come by. Yet, for generations, Black women have found solace in a time-honored tradition: tea.
Not the ordinary, store-bought kind, but herbal brews made from roots, flowers, and leaves passed down through generations—a healing, sacred ritual.
These teas weren’t just for hydration; they were powerful tools for nurturing both the body and spirit.
At Tropace, we honor this legacy by bringing herbal teas for nursing mothers back to the forefront of wellness.
Our mission is to provide nursing tea that not only promotes healing but also embodies the strength and resilience of Black mothers, especially during the delicate postpartum period.
Why Tea Is More Than a Beverage
In African cultures, tea is not merely a drink—it’s a ritual and a remedy. Across the African continent, women have long used herbal teas as a means of healing and nourishment.
From the ginger-infused postpartum brews of Ghana to fennel teas shared among midwives in the Hausa community, these teas have been essential for emotional recovery, physical healing, and even promoting lactation.
Now, science is catching up to these ancient practices.
Herbal ingredients like fenugreek, rooibos, and lemongrass are widely recognized for their ability to support breast milk production, regulate hormones, and enhance overall wellness.
These teas have long been considered sacred, serving as a reminder of the strength passed down through generations of women.
Tropace’s nursing tea blends carry on this legacy, acknowledging the wisdom of our foremothers while offering a modern approach to supporting Black mothers during their postpartum journey.
Tropace didn’t invent this. We simply honor it.

The postpartum period—often referred to as the “fourth trimester”—can be physically and emotionally challenging.
It’s a time marked by exhaustion, self-doubt, and overwhelming responsibility. At Tropace, we’ve designed our nursing tea to meet the unique needs of new mothers during this fragile time.
