Wellbeing
Yerba maté has been known for centuries to replenish the body with energy and vitality.
From the Tupi people of Brazil and the Guarani people of Paraguay…
To the Argentinian gauchos (cowboys) who drank it to sustain their lengthy cattle-herding days…
To the Spanish Conquistadors…
And in our modern day, to the energy drinks that it’s in…
Here’s why.

● About 27 mg of Caffeine per serving for long-lasting energy and focus without the jitters
