Guarani people learned to enjoy Yerba mate and Spanish adopted this habit and remained unchanged through five centuries of history. In Argentina, mate is the most consumed drink second to tap water. A very invigorating herbal, great hot and cold. My mother used to prepare it cold excellent drink for summer days. This is a great pick me up drink; if you like caffeine this is your herb.
