Yerba Mate Tea

Native to South America, yerba mate is a popular beverage in countries including Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Brazil. Stimulating and somewhat grassy, mate is traditionally drunk from a gourd using a metal bombilla straw – although you can certainly also enjoy it from a teacup or mug! While Yerba Mate does contain caffeine, many people experience its effects differently than the caffeine present in tea or coffee. Mate’s stimulating properties are often described as having a more gradual and sustained effect, with none of the highs and lows of other caffeinated drinks.
