This popular South American drink, Yerba Mate Tea<\/strong>, is a classic for a reason. We love it as an afternoon pick-me-up when you need something both healthy and rejuvenating.<\/p>\n

Savor a South American Classic<\/h3>\n

Yerba mate is made from a South American herb related to the holly bush. It\u2019s prized for its distinctive taste \u2013 smooth yet strong, earthy, and ever-so-slightly bitter. The aroma is herbal and invigorating, often compared to eucalyptus. It\u2019s a distinct flavor well-loved by those who know it.<\/p>\n

But yerba mate isn\u2019t just delicious. It\u2019s rich in antioxidants and is known for its energizing properties. Its caffeine content is higher than tea but lower than coffee, so you can enjoy it without the buzz, jitters, or crash of a morning cup of joe.<\/p>\n

Naturally Aged for Optimal Flavor<\/h3>\n

After harvesting the yerba mate, our farmers allow the plant\u2019s leaves and stems to age. This process brings out the yerba mate\u2019s natural mild flavors and delicate aroma of the plant\u2019s components.<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h3>\n

Our organic yerba mate contains no added ingredients. That means when you sit down to enjoy a cup, you\u2019ll be able to detect all the complexities and nuances of its pure, unadulterated preparation. We believe that sometimes, the best tasting experience is also the simplest.<\/p>\n

Steeping Instructions<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Heat fresh, filtered water to a boil at 212\u00b0F (100\u00b0C).<\/li>\n
  • Add 2 grams (1 teaspoon) of mate to a diffuser.<\/li>\n
  • Place the diffuser in a cup or mug.<\/li>\n
  • Pour the hot water into the mug, completely submerging the diffuser.<\/li>\n
  • Steep for 5-7 minutes, depending on how strong you like your brew.<\/li>\n
  • Remove the diffuser from the cup.<\/li>\n
  • If desired, add milk, cream, sugar, or honey to taste.<\/li>\n
  • Let cool to your liking, sip, and enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Health Benefits<\/h2>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Enhanced Performance During Workouts<\/h3>\n

    The caffeine in yerba mate has been found to increase fat-burning during workouts as well as improving performance during high-intensity bursts. It accomplishes this by increasing your body\u2019s reliance on fat for fuel, making it the perfect pre-workout caffeine fix.<\/p>\n

    Effective Weight Loss Aid<\/h3>\n

    Research suggests that yerba mate can increase the amount of stored fat that\u2019s burned as energy. Some studies indicate yerba mate can help reduce appetite and boost metabolism. This translates into help maintaining a healthy weight or losing excess weight.<\/p>\n

    Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant-Rich<\/h3>\n

    Yerba mate contains saponins, natural anti-inflammatory compounds. It also contains vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and selenium \u2013 all antioxidants that can strengthen your immune system and promote your overall health.<\/p>\n

    Decreased Risk of Heart Disease<\/h3>\n

    Yerba mate contains several antioxidant compounds that are thought to protect against heart disease. These include caffeoyl derivatives and polyphenols. Some research also suggests regular yerba mate consumption may reduce unhealthy cholesterol over time, providing another layer of protection against chronic heart disease.<\/p>\n

    Decreased Blood Sugar Levels<\/h3>\n

    Recent animal studies indicate yerba mate may help improve insulin signaling, lower blood sugar, and reduce diabetes complications. Maintaining stable blood sugar levels and avoiding blood sugar spikes is an essential part of overall health, especially for those at risk of diabetes and people watching their weight.<\/p>\n
