I had to know what this was all about. As anyone who has travelled in Paraguay, Uraguay, Argentina or southern Brazil knows, these are the tools of the serious maté drinker. Yerba maté is a tea-like beverage consumed widely throughout South America. It is an integral part of the cultural life and an essential element in the daily diet of the people of this region. Once I learned of its almost magical qualities and medicinal value, I became a serious mate drinker. I love yerba – and hope you will too. And, then like me, you will drink mate for life. |

Several
years ago, while traveling in Paraguay,
I noticed that everybody carried a thermos,
a cup and a little silver straw. My initial
reaction was – what is up with that?
