Maté
Been drink Maté for the past month as a weekend activity. Particularly the playadito brand. Holy fuck it gets me so geeked up. I drink espresso every morning for 15 years and holy shit mate just gets me sooo spun its kinda crazy.

Do you need the maté drink thing?

Not necessarily, the straw is kinda peculiar because it is a steel straw with perforated holes on the side that goes into the cup which is called a gourd but the cup you can improvise

The diuretic effect was too much for me.

You can just put it in loose leaf tea bags and skip the gay ass unhygienic straw.

It is pretty much a meme drink. Im American and live in the USA and I find the drink very cumbersome for what it is. You need a special cup, a straw, and a thermos of hot water. So it’s too inconvenient to drive around with it or take it anywhere, but argentinians and ppl in Uruguay (whatever they’re called) carry that shit around to the park and work and school and wherever because they love it so much

I used to make large batches of steeped mate and drink it throughout the day. It definitely has a stronger effect than coffee or tea. Doing the gourd thing would have been silly.

It's insane to me how americans allow themselves to be worked to the bone like that. Every other country on earth has people that are allowed to be relaxed, practice culture, and spend time, energy and money doing silly things like carrying hot water and a gourd around. Americans are more wired than north koreans that are in front of their supreme leader.

Espresso has less caffeine than regular-brewed coffee so I wouldn't be surprised if mate has more caffeine than espresso.

I used to hate it when I was a kid because I always saw my parents and my uncles and grandparents drinking it, but now I've come to appreciate it. I even being it to the park with me sometimes. It's really good to drink it early in the morning

you are supposed to cure them, when new fill them with cheap whisky for at least a week, maybe look for a curing guide online

I use a silicone gourd.
No need to cure it or worry about mold - just pop it in the dishwasher and you're done.
10/10 would recommend.

It's a drink for brown people and pretentious faggots.
I tastes like horse piss.
No, it doesn't work different/better than coffee, you're just overdosing on caffeine.
And fuck you for dumping your spent weed in public sinks or toilets.

Have a box I got from a Brazilian market a few months ago and dumped some white chocolate chips in it to take the piss. It was quite good

They also come in black for big boys like you.
I really don't see how you can be so autistic about something as inane as a silicone gourd.

I'm not here to call you a faggot, I'm here to question whether frequently drinking a hot beverage from something made of that stuff is wise.

If you all get shaky from coffee, that is an adrenal response that can be mitigated by eating a little food with your coffee or putting cream in the coffee. Also, don’t just drink coffee without food anyway, it makes you feel hyped but jittery and shit

I tend to prefer more seasoned / darker and smokier yerba mate. so anything Paraguayan or some of the smokier Argentinian ones like that smokey La Merced or Rosamonte
but Kraus is alright for a change with that milder grassier flavor. a little pricey though.
