yerba mate, matey!

Our recent caffeine surge has been the Guayaki ~ Yerba Mate drink:


The Guayaki guy told us that...

Six Natural Sources of Caffeine: [ in no particular order ]
  1. Cacao (baking chocolate 25 mg)
  2. Tea (green tea 35 mg; black tea 75 mg)
  3. Coffee (60 mg for 6oz cup instant coffee; 140 mg for 6oz cup auto-drip)
  4. Kola nut
  5. Yerba Mate (50 mg per 6oz cup)
  6. Guanua (259 mg)

Of the six, only Yerba Mate is the healthiest.
The antioxident capacity and total polyphenol concentration is up to 100-fold higher in yerba mate tea-based beverages compared to mainstream energy drinks.
