    Mate is a tea, right? I've never been much of a tea drinker.

    The only Yerba Mate I know of is the "Cuban" soda that is sold in Miami under the trademark "Materva"

    Yeah, in the U.S. it's mostly consumed in tea bag form.

    I get mine from www.yerba-mate.com.

    Different ways to brew it: http://yerba-mate.com/brewing.htm

    I just started drinking it and it's good stuff!

    You can also buy the stuff at almost any latino market you can find. The latino markets tend to have better mate than other sources I have found in the US.

    Good to know.

    I'm drinking a different blend today - Aviva Cosecha Silvestre Limon.
