Organic Yerba Mate Tea

• Promotes Mental Alertness
• Herbal Dietary Supplement

Yerba Mate is traditionally used in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay as a daily stimulant beverage. Like tea or coffee, drinking mate promotes alertness due to its naturally occurring caffeine content. Clinical data shows that beverages with caffeine help to restore mental alertness to those experiencing fatigue.

Our yerba mate comes from the beautiful Guayaki Rainforest Reserve, located in the Mata Atlantica rainforest of Paraguay. Local and indigenous families who grow the yerba mate use sustainable growing methods to protect the environment and preserve an important source of livelihoods for future generations. This organic yerba mate is shade-grown, then hand-picked, wood-dried and cedar-aged for premium quality and exceptional flavor.

How does it taste? Slightly astringent, bitter and smoky. Add a sweetener, if desired.

Yerba Mate Tea Brewing Directions

For maximum benefit, medicinal tea must be properly prepared. Pour 8 oz. hot water (freshly boiled but no longer bubbling) over a tea bag in a cup. Cover cup and steep 5 -10 minutes. These steps directly influence the amount of beneficial components that will end up in your teacup! Gently squeeze the tea bag to release the remaining extract. Add a sweetener if desired.

Drink 3 or more cups daily. For an extra strength brew, use two teabags or brew up a whole pot using four or five teabags.
