Yerba Mate Loose Leaf Time Out Tea.
Yerba Mate is drunk throughout South America. It is said to have the strength of coffee and the benefits of tea!
Yerba Mate is a caffeine rich South American herb. It is dried over open flames giving it a slightly smoky flavour.
This Yerba Mate produces a coppery green infusion with a bittersweet, earthy and herby flavour.
This is a great alternative to tea.
Traditionally this tea is made in a gourd and drunk with a "Bombilla", a special metallic drinking straw. The tea leaves remain in the drinking vessel and get topped up with hot water and drunk until all the flavours have gone.
However, you do not need the gourd and can make it direct in a mug or tea pot:

As the planet means so much to us, in 2018 we took the leap to be one of Britain’s first 100% plastic free tea companies.
We started packing our loose-leaf tea in a bag made from fast growing eucalyptus tree cellulose, so no nasty plastic in landfill. Then not stopping there, we went through a change of packaging, utilising vegetable inks print on our tea boxes, closing the whole circle making it all kind to the planet!!
