Yea, I also grow it.


The active ingredient is caffeine.

It is my favorite! In the summer you can let raspberries steep and then make smoothies :sun:

im also interested in hearing how many people drink yerba mate


its one of those things ive heard of many times, but havent really known anyone who uses it.  is it just like having a cup of coffee?  im led to believe its just a different source of caffeine..anything else to it?

Yep, I love the stuff. I have lots of different teas in-house.

I do like it, but I'm not drinking enough of the stuff, I have two boxes.

They used to think it was a different chemical - mateine or some such.

I've never had coffee, but I like the taste and effects of this beverage.

Yeah it is, but the downside is that the leaf is so fine that some chunks go through the filter, which can sometimes make me gag, lol. That's why I want the press.

I drink quite a bit of it. I'm a tea freak and drink so much of it while i'm in school. I think that the mate gives me the most focused energy and doesn't make me jittery, it's nice. I had a teacher from Uruguay that taught me all about it a few years back, mmm delicious.

Mt. Rose herbs is an excellent site, I just recently ordered some herb seeds from them and recieved them within 5 days. Also, i would simply try searching for health food stores in your area, they should have some for pretty cheap inside.
