Mate Tea
Infused with a wild Argentinian shrub, mate tea comes from the land of South America. The word ‘mate’ means bitter and was used by the people who colonized the region of the Río de la Plata to describe the natives' rough and sour drink. It is usually had with no other ingredient to soften the bitter taste. These caffeine rich leaves sourced from the yerba mate bushes in South America, are quite popular in Syria and Lebanon.
