English lavenders ‘Rosea’ (Lavandula angustifolia ‘Rosea’) and ‘White Ice’ (Lavandula angustifolia ‘White Ice’) bring sweet, candy-like flavors to cakes and cookies.

Side Effects of Lavender Tea

Lavender tea has very few side effects, most of which can be avoided by following usage guidelines. There are still a few things to keep in mind when drinking lavender tea.

Hormone Effects Lavender has been associated with gynecomastia—a growth in breast tissue—in prepubescent males. Ending the use of lavender typically reverses this side effect. Experts recommend limiting lavender tea consumption for males who haven’t undergone puberty.

Pregnant women should be careful when drinking lavender tea due to its ability to mimic the estrogen hormone. It’s always best to consult your physician before consuming herbal teas when pregnant or breastfeeding.

Allergies People who are allergic to lavender flowers or similar flowering plants should avoid drinking lavender tea. People who are sensitive to these flowers may develop an allergic reaction that includes difficulty breathing, skin rash, and throat irritation.
