Yerba Maté Chai-Chai Teas

Yerba meets chai! This is what you get when the two cultures unite! A beverage to celebrate and diversify your life. Yerba Maté pronounced "yerba mahtay" is a medicinal and cultural drink of South America. Made from the carefully hand picked leaves and buds of the Holly bush lilex Paraguay lensis St. Hill. This infusion, which is low in caffeine, is known to enhance the immune system and has a positive effect on physical stamina. Maté energizes the body without the typical nervousness and jitters associated with other caffeine beverages like coffee. This is the ultimate coffee replacement! Also available in other flavors and forms.

Ingredients:
Yerba Maté, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and ginger. This blend contains caffeine.

Brewing Instructions:
Use 1 level teaspoon per 6 oz cup; heat fresh water until first signs of steam (150-160 F); let steep for 7-10 minutes. Sweeten with SBS Teas Flavored Sugar Powder or Sweet Purple Haze Sugar.

Iced Tea Instructions:
Put 6 teaspoons of tea into a heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5-7 minutes or longer. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into the pitcher straining the ingredients. Add ice and top-up with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. A rule of thumb when preparing fresh brewed iced tea is to double the strength of hot tea since it will be poured over ice and diluted with cold water.
