You should check with your doctor but to the best of my knowledge it does not.

To make sure your cup of tea is free of any herbs your practitioner hasn't approved, read labels carefully; some brews that seem to be fruit based also contain a variety of herbs. Stick to regular (black) tea (preferably caffeine free) that comes already flavoured, or mix up your own by adding any of the following to boiling water or decaffeinated tea; orange, apple, pineaipple, or other fruit juice, slice of lemon, lime, orange, apple, pear or other fruit, mind leaves, cinnamon, nutmeg or cloves.
Green tea should probably be limited during pregnancy since it may interfere with cell development and growth. And never brew a homemade tea from a plant growing in your backyard unless you are absolutely certain what it is and that it's safe for use during pregnancy.
