Default Re: Yerba Mate

I lived in Argentina for a year a while back and we used to drink this stuff 4 or 5 times a day. Its fantastic. We used to drink it by putting the leaves in a gourd, adding a little hot water and sucking it up through a metal straw. It was then refilled and passed onto the next person and so on. Kind of like pass the bong I guess. Of all of the things I miss about Argentina, this has the fondest memories for me.
