Brand: Teavana

Located in: Mate Teas

This authentic Argentinean mate is extremely popular all over South America. Rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, this energizing herb is a perfect pick-me-up tisane. This herbal tea contains caffeine, although many people admit they have a different reaction to this stimulant as it is blended with the other natural xanthines found in Mate (theophylline and theobromine), one without jitteriness or addictive tendencies. As seen on "The Today Show".

Comments about Teavana Yerba Mate Herbal Tea:

Yerba Mate is an herb which I did not grow up on but rather discovered as I have grown more accustomed to teas and tisanes. The drink itself is highly energizing, but interestingly enough it does not cause any jitters nor do I experience a crash. It keeps me mentally alert and physically active and has essentially replaced all work-out drinks like Gatorade and other supplements.

The tea is said to contain 21 vitamins and minerals, boosts metabolism, curbs appetite, and is a natural antidepressant- all of which are positive qualities. Honestly, the only negative side to such an herb is that it isn't very ideal for an evening tea before bedtime.

Comments about Teavana Yerba Mate Herbal Tea:

I enjoy this in late afternoon or evening. It has a lot of body but is not overwhelming. It is great mixed with Rooibos Chai.

Comments about Teavana Yerba Mate Herbal Tea:

I too grew up on this tea. Little did my parents know, however, that this tea contains quite a bit of caffeine. Love the taste and I really love that Teavana sells them the way I was used to seeing it when living in Germany 20 something years ago. I don't like the twiggy dusty kind the way it is normally sold.

This tea is great and even though it is stimulating, it doesn't keep me up at night if I drink it in the afternoon. I use a coffee press at work and make a fresh pot in the morning and a refill in the afternoon. You can easily make another second brew and it is just as enjoyable but a little less caffeinated that way.
