Rosemary has been used for centuries as both a culinary herb and a traditional herbal remedy. Rosemary tea is made by steeping fresh or dried rosemary leaves in hot water, creating a fragrant, earthy beverage that contains natural plant compounds with antioxidant properties.
While rosemary tea may offer several health benefits, it is not a miracle cure and cannot prevent or treat diseases on its own. Scientific research is still ongoing, and more high-quality human studies are needed.
