Yerba mate drink

Yerba mate is a traditional South American drink that’s gaining worldwide popularity. It’s said to have the strength of coffee, the health benefits of tea, and the joy of chocolate. At 85 mg of caffeine per cup, yerba mate contains less caffeine than coffee but more than a cup of tea.

It is manufactured from the large-leafed Ilex paraguariensis tree's dried, crushed leaves. Yerba mate, sometimes called Paraguay tea, contains caffeine naturally. It has been praised by experts as a heart-healthy beverage with a wide range of possible health advantages, including its antibacterial and antioxidant characteristics. The plant chemicals known as polyphenols, which are beneficial to human health, are also found in yerba mate. Depending on the brewing method, yerba mate contains 20–180 mg of caffeine per 8 ounces (240 mL).
