Fun Facts:

In Argentinean villages, it is a ritual for small groups to sit in circles and pass around a traditional yerba mate drinking gourd and bombilla (filter-tipped straw used to drink yerba mate). The mate is passed around the circle in a clockwise direction. Mate can be re-steeped many times, so the gourd is passed around in this social setting until the water source at the circle runs out. Create your own yerba mate ritual with this earthy, comforting herb.
