Hydrangea serrata Extract

Hydrangea serrata Extract is a standardized botanical concentrate derived from the leaves of Hydrangea serrata, a deciduous shrub native to East Asia.

It is commonly known as Amacha (甘茶, “sweet tea”) in Japan, where the leaves have been used for centuries to produce a sweet, non‑caloric tea traditionally consumed during the Kanbutsu‑e (Buddha’s birthday) ceremony.

Beyond its sweetening properties, Hydrangea serrata extract is rich in polyphenols and other bioactive compounds with antioxidant, anti‑inflammatory, and oral health benefits.

It is widely used in the food and beverage industry as a natural sweetener, and in cosmetic and nutraceutical applications for its protective effects on skin and gum health.
