The Health Benefits of Your Mate Ritual

Yerba mate is more than just a drink; it is a nutritional powerhouse. Known for having more antioxidants than green tea, it provides a unique combination of caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline. This provides the mental clarity you need for a busy day in Brisbane or a long drive in Perth, without the typical caffeine crash. By choosing our Beginner Mate Kit, you are investing in a wellness ritual that supports metabolism and physical performance.

How to Prepare Your First Mate

• Step 1: Fill your gourd two-thirds full with your favourite yerba mate leaf.
• Step 2: Tilt the gourd so the yerba sits on one side, creating a small 'well'.
• Step 3: Pour a little cool water into the well to protect the leaves, then add warm (not boiling) water.
• Step 4: Insert the bombilla and enjoy!
