Welcome to the wild lettuce shop!
Wild Lettuce is traditionally used to support relaxation and ease discomfort from everyday mental and physical stress.* We make lactucarium, extracts, tea, seed oil, and more... Free shipping on two or more items and large sizes!
Extra Strong Tincture of Lactucarium
Lactucarium is known for its calming properties and is often used to help ease everyday physical and mental stress. This is our most concentrated wild lettuce tincture, containing about 10 grams of lactucarium per 4oz. While it can be taken at any time, it is commonly enjoyed before bedtime. One half teaspoon approximately contains 250mg of lactucarium.*
Sticky Extract of Wild Lettuce
This is pure condensed wild lettuce extract! It is the same lactucarium as in our extra strong, but in dried form for those who prefer to mix their own. This extract is freeze dried and becomes sticky in the atmosphere as it is highly hygroscopic. It is pure lactucarium with no other ingredients.
Egyptian Lettuce Seed Oil
Lettuce seed oil is traditionally used for its relaxing properties when consumed, and as a soothing massage oil. Known for its moisturizing benefits, it also contains vitamins and minerals associated with hormonal health. It has an herby flavor and aroma. We press this oil from genuine Egyptian lettuce seeds.

Classic Wild Lettuce Tincture
We have the best wild lettuce tincture on the market! Unlike our extra strong tincture of lactucarium, this tincture is made in the classic style, by soaking the raw herb in alcohol and water. We keep the alcohol content to about 37.5% to maintain the aroma and flavor, without overpowering it. This classic tincture is made from our own USA harvested prickly wild lettuce.
H. Newman's Syrup of Lactucarium
WE ARE CURRENTLY REFORMULATING THE SYRUP
This syrup of lactucarium follows the traditional recipe of H. Aubergier, with slight modifications to align with modern regulations. Historically regarded for its soothing properties, syrup of lactucarium was part of a tradition in the 19th and early 20th centuries that aimed to provide comfort for individuals experiencing pulmonary discomfort and symptoms associated with the common cold.*
Emperor Augustus Wild Lettuce Tea
BACK IN STOCK!
Our wild lettuce tea has a mild, herby flavor reminiscent of green tea. While it is commonly referred to as wild lettuce tea, it is more accurately described as an infusion. A few pinches steeped in hot water with honey and lemon can offer a relaxing experience at any time of day. Made from 100% Lactuca virosa, this tea is historically associated with Emperor Augustus of Rome, who is said to have consumed lettuce infusions during times of fever.
Identifying wild lettuce plants from other similar looking plants is a big problem for people making their own tinctures. Getting genuine raw materials is also a big problem for manufacturers. As far as we can tell, most of the cheap wild lettuce products on the internet are made from materials produced in China with no way to know what is actually in them.
The Solution:
All of our wild lettuce extract is genuine. The base ingredient for our lactucarium products comes from privately sourced wild lettuce and is manufactured according to rigorous standards. We press our own Egyptian lettuce seed oil from seeds imported directly from Egypt. Our tea is harvested by hand using fresh lactuca virosa. As well, our tincture is produced from locally harvested material and made in our lab using maceration and low temperature reduction.
