About

Organic Roasted Yerba Mate is a delightful beverage that combines the richness of traditional yerba mate with the comforting flavors of roasting. It's important to note that while yerba mate is a popular herbal infusion, it's essential to consume it in moderation and be aware of its potential effects. Some people may experience sensitivity to caffeine or other compounds in yerba mate. However, for those who can enjoy it safely, organic roasted yerba mate offers a unique and robust flavor profile that's perfect for anyone seeking a natural energy boost without the jitters. As always, it's advisable to consult with healthcare professionals for personalised guidance on health concerns.

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. Measure about 1 to 2 teaspoons of roasted yerba mate leaves per cup. Adjust the amount to your taste preferences.

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 yerba mate leaves in your cup or teapot.

3. Allow the yerba mate leaves to steep in the hot water for about 3-5 minutes. The longer you steep it, the stronger the flavour will be.

4. If you're using a teapot, simply pour the infused yerba mate through a strainer into your cup. If you're using a cup, use a tea infuser or a fine-mesh strainer to strain out the leaves as you pour the liquid into another cup.

5. 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.

Use a gourd and bombilla if you have access to them!

Yerba Mate Roasted Organic — FAQs

Everything you need to know before you order.

What is Yerba Mate and where does it come from?

Yerba Mate (Ilex paraguariensis) is a species of holly native to the subtropical rainforests of South America — particularly Paraguay, Argentina, southern Brazil, and Uruguay. Its dried leaves and stems have been consumed as a caffeinated infusion by Indigenous Guaraní people for centuries, long before European arrival, and the tradition of drinking mate from a gourd (the mate) through a metal straw (the bombilla) remains central to social and cultural life across the Southern Cone of South America. This certified organic product is sourced from Brazil.

What is Roasted Yerba Mate and how does it differ from green (unroasted)?

Traditional green yerba mate is dried with hot air or over gentle heat, preserving its characteristic bold, grassy, vegetal flavour. Roasted Yerba Mate — known as tostado in Spanish — undergoes an additional roasting step, similar to the process used to make hojicha from green tea in Japan. The roasting caramelises the natural sugars, reduces bitterness and astringency, and produces a smoother, more mellow, toasty character — earthy and warm with less of the sharp, grassy punch of green mate. Many people who find traditional yerba mate too intense prefer the roasted variety.

Does this product contain caffeine?

Yes — Yerba Mate naturally contains caffeine, along with two related xanthine alkaloids: theobromine (also found in cacao) and theophylline (also found in black tea). The caffeine content of yerba mate is broadly comparable to that of black tea, though it can vary depending on preparation. Some people describe the stimulant effect of yerba mate as cleaner and more sustained than coffee, potentially due to the combination of these three compounds. The roasting process does not significantly alter the caffeine content.

How should I brew Roasted Yerba Mate in a tea bag?

Place one pyramid bag in your cup. Use water at 65–70°C — not fully boiling, as higher temperatures can make yerba mate bitter. Steep for 3–5 minutes depending on your preferred strength. The roasted variety is more forgiving than green mate and handles a slightly longer steep well. Each bag can typically be re-infused once or twice with progressively lighter results. Enjoy black, or with a touch of honey. The pyramid bag format makes it ideal for café service, hospitality, or retail.

Are the tea bags biodegradable?

Yes — the pyramid bags are made from soilon, a food-grade biodegradable material derived from corn starch (PLA). They are compostable and break down in industrial composting environments. This is part of The Herbal Connection's commitment to sustainable packaging across the tea bag range.

Is this product certified organic?

Yes — the Yerba Mate is certified organic. It is sourced from Brazil and packed in Australia by The Herbal Connection — a Certified Organic business operating from our 5-Star Eat Safe licensed facility on the Gold Coast.
