Yerba Mate
Yerba mate, also known as mate tea, is a caffeinated beverage made from the leaves and twigs of the South American plant (ilex paraguariensis). It is traditionally brewed with hot or cold water and is characterized by its slightly bitter, earthy taste and stimulating effect.
Although yerba mate is often called 'mate tea,' it is not technically a true tea, as it does not come from the tea plant (camellia sinensis).
The Guarani Indians knew it as a remedy for fatigue and to suppress hunger.
When brewed, it creates a natural energy drink containing caffeine, vitamins, and minerals.
Yerba mate can also be purchased online in Switzerland.

Roasted yerba mate, tostada or quemada in Spanish, is a specialty type of yerba mate. It is roasted or burned, whereby it takes on a brown color. When pouring over it, it can withstand hotter water (90-95°).
