About
The smokey richness of Roasted Yerba Mate elegantly intertwines with the warm, aromatic spices of traditional chai, creating an invigorating symphony of flavours for your palate. You can also purchase the Roasted Yerba Mate on it's own, as well as our Chai Spice Mix - feel free to experiment and create your own recipes! As always, we recommend trying a small amount if you have never had Yerba Mate before, everyone can react differently to herbs and spices.
Benefits
1. Energy Boost: Yerba mate contains caffeine, providing a gentle and sustained energy boost without the abrupt crashes often associated with coffee or energy drinks. The roasting process can mellow the bitterness, making it a smoother option for those sensitive to caffeine.
2. Antioxidant-Rich: Yerba mate is packed with antioxidants, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, which help combat free radicals in the body and support overall health.
3. Mental Clarity: Many users report increased mental alertness and focus when consuming yerba mate, thanks to its caffeine content combined with other naturally occurring compounds like theobromine and theophylline.
Directions of Use
1. All Tea Bags contain 2g of tea each. For a cup of Yerba Mate Roasted Chai 1-2 tea bags is recommended, for a teapot between 4-6 tea bags are recommended.
2. Heat water to the recommended temperature of 65-70°C. Avoid using boiling water, as it can make the yerba mate bitter. Pour the hot water over the tea bag in your cup or teapot.
3. Allow the yerba mate blend to steep in the hot water for about 3-5 minutes. The longer you steep it, the stronger the flavour will be.
4. Enjoy! You can usually re-infuse the same yerba mate leaves at least once or twice, although each infusion may have a slightly different flavour profile. Feel free to add some honey or milk for extra flavour.
We also have this blend available in Bulk Loose Leaf form if you wish to use a strainer instead.
