Meet Organic Yerba Maté (Ilex paraguariensis)  — South America’s legendary brew, cherished for centuries as a social and energising ritual. With its earthy, grassy flavour and smooth, lightly bitter edge, yerba maté is rich in natural caffeine, antioxidants, and nutrients. Traditionally sipped from a gourd with a bombilla straw, this herbal tea is perfect for mornings, afternoons, or whenever you need sustained, clean energy without the crash.
