Well, if you've ever travelled to South America and particularly Argentina you'll see yerba being drunk by nearly everyone. Literally. Drunk to help maintain a healthy weight and for its stimulating properties, our yerba tastes a little like a smoky green tea.
how does it taste?
A bit like a smoky green tea. Could this be the new Lapsang Souchong?
good if you're feeling
Open-minded and willing to take a risk. This is an Amazonian secret energy brew - it may smell like creosote, but it works like magic.
how we like it
With a sprinkling of cinnamon or ginger.
Iced
Just cover one tea temple with boiling water and infuse for 3 minutes. Remove temple and top-up glass with iced water.
brew time
- tea temple - 1 per person. Infuse in boiling water. Brew for 3+ minutes.
Whole leaves take longer to brew, but the little wait is definitely worth it.
what's in it?
