The Boy will clunk me over the head for this, but for the past few days I’ve been working on this blog, I’ve been enjoying a mate latte.
It’s not that I haven’t had yerba mate before. The Boy brings back gross amount from Peru when he’s there and drinks in instead of coffee. But he makes it like coffee, strong and dark. When he had me try it, I poured pounds of honey in there, but nothing would help. I told him it was gross and went back to my coffee.
I’ve been converted. Out here people drink this stuff like candy. There’s even a company that started in this city. Guayaki. It’s pretty tasty. There’s different varieties. My friend Tonya like the chocolate mate version. I like mine in a latte with a tiny bit of honey.
You can find yerba mte in most health food stores.
