What is yerba mate?
Drinking yerba mate plays a vital role in South American culture, especially in Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina, and Brazil, though people in other South American countries also enjoy it. Traditionally, people drink mate from a natural gourd, a hollowed-out fruit, using a metal straw called a bombilla, which has a filtered end to separate the infusion from the yerba leaves. Friends and family gather to chat and share mate, making it a communal experience.
With any purchase of loose leaf yerba or related accessories, full photo instructions will be provided on how to brew the perfect yerba mate. So there is no excuse not to brew the perfect yerba mate! If you get it right, your yerba will always taste great, and last twice as long. Most of all, practice makes perfect!
