Relax Tea Leaves are a rare item in Story of Seasons: Friends of Mineral Town that you can use to make Relax Tea.

But Relax Tea Leaves can also be obtained through two events: after giving 20 gifts to the Harvest Goddess and choosing her or Kappa as a marriage candidate, or by attending the Nature Sprites’ tea party.

The tea party is a recurring event that happens every Spring, so make sure to attend it whenever you receive the annual invite.
