Maté
Yerba with Hot water
Add 2 tablespoons or more, of Yerba Matè into a cup & cover the hole firmly with your hand. Turn it upside down and then place it right-side down, remove your hand. This helps settle the yerba. Dig the tea straw into the yerba, filtered-end down. If you want to sweeten the maté, put a teaspoon of honey on top. Lightly moisten the tea with cool water first then gently pour the hot, not boiling, water over the yerba, letting it be absorbed by the herbs until the maté is saturated.
Re-fill your cup with more hot water to enjoy another cup!
Tereré
​​
Fill 1/3 to 1/2 of the glass with yerba mate and slant it at 45-degree angle. If you want a strong yerba flavor, cover the yerba with warm water and wait a couple of minutes.
Put the bombilla (covering the top with thumb) on the same lower side of the yerba, on a digging motion, and pressing until you reach the bottom of the cup.
​​
In a jug, put the ice cubes and the water, juice or lemonade. You can add the citrus slices, sugar and herbs to the jug or put them in the glass itself.
Add the liquid to the lower side
Add the liquid to the lower side, aiming as close as possible to the bombilla to avoid the higher (and dry) part of the yerba slant to get wet.
Your tereré is done! Just drink and repeat number 4.
As it happens with the hot mate, the tereré will gradually lose its flavor. When you get to that point, carefully remove the bombilla and repeat from step 2 but this time on the ‘dry side’ - opposite from where it was.
You can also start over which will give you the perfect opportunity to experiment with different herbs, fruits and even spices such as ginger or cinnamon.
