Use case

Traditionally you make Yerba Maté tea in a gourd and drink it with a bulb. The taste is somewhat like a spicy green tea. The sometimes light smoky taste is due to the process during the harvest, during which the branches are dried over a wood fire. And just like with green tea, this tea also becomes bitter if you pour boiling water directly on it. You can add a sweetener as desired, but also lime or lemon give the tea that little bit extra. Today there are also many soft drinks and energy drinks on the market based on Yerba Maté.

The yerba maté plant can reach 15 meters high and has a dark green leaf all year round. This leaf contains caffeine and the related alkaloid xanthine. The flowers of the plant are white-green with four petals. There is, however, a difference between the female and male plant when it comes to taste and strength. In general, the female plants are milder in taste and contain less caffeine.
