MATE
Legendary origins
The Guaran鱈 people started drinkingmate
in a region that currently includes
Paraguay, southern Brazil, southeastern
Bolivia, northeastern Argentina and
Uruguay.
The Guaran鱈 have a legend that says the
Goddesses of the Moon and the Cloud came to
the Earth one day to visit it, but they instead
found a yaguaret辿 (jaguar) that was going to
attack them. An old man saved them, and, in
compensation, the goddesses gave the oldman
a new kind of plant, from which hecould
prepare a "drink of friendship".
Is a traditional South American caffeine-
rich infused drink, particularly in Argentina,
where it is defined by law as the "national
infusion.
Preparation
It is prepared
by steeping
driedleaves
of yerba
mate in hot
water.
Its a very simple process which consists of filling the gourd
with yerba, pouring hot but not boiling water over the leaves,
and drinking with a straw, the BOMBILLA, which acts as a
filter soas to draw only the liquid andnot the yerba leaves.
Preparation

The beverage is traditionallyprepared in a gourd recipient, also
called mate, fromwhich it is drunk. The gourd is nearly filledwith yerba,
and hot water (typically at 70 to 85 属C, never boiling) is added.
