Yerba Maté
Our Drinks
A popular infusion in South America, Yerba Mate boosts energy levels without the jitteriness associated with coffee.
Maté (Ilex paraguariensis) is a stimulating plant that is historically and culturally very important in South America. Here it is commonly drunk as an infusion known as “chimarrão” or “tererê”, and it is now beginning to grow in popularity in both Europe and across the US. As scientific research on the effects of maté accumulates, the herb’s stimulating benefits are increasingly being recognised as is its ability to improve cognitive functions and enhance short-term memory.
