Yerba mate tea is a traditional brew that is prepared by steeping the leaves of the Yerba mate tree in hot water. It was the indigenous Guaraní people who lived in the region what is now known as Paraguay who first discovered how to make Yerba Mate tea and take advantage of its amazing rejuvenating properties. It has since become a favorite social drink among most South Americans. Its acerbic, woody taste may be a turn off for lovers of sweet sugary drinks, but its amazing health benefits have started to draw the attention of health conscious consumers around the world.
