Get into the Mate Teas Trend
Mate is energy that's balanced and not frantic like many energy drinks. The people of the South American rain forest discovered the magic before we did. From these green leaves emerged the tea that sings the body electric. With a llama-load of antioxidants, mate trickles grinning into your system. It won't leave you drooping or demand addiction.
Mate has been around for a very, very, very long time. In the beginning, South American indigenous tribes noticed these abundant trees growing and figured out that they could dry the leaves and brew them for something to drink. They didn't have cups back then, so they harvested some gourds, hollowed them out and used them for drinking vessels. They didn't have any handy tea bags to brew their mate in, so they stuck their loose mate leaves in the new make-shift cup - but then they realized they needed a straw. Plastic wasn't around then either, so they headed to the invention lab yet again and forged a straw out of metal. Sound like a lot of work? Well, it was. Fortunately for us, making mate is really, really easy today.
