How Do You Make Yerba Mate?

For centuries, Yerba Mate has been traditionally drank from a hollowed container called a “gourd,” and sipped with a metal straw called a “bombilla” that contains a filter at the bottom to strain out the yerba leaves. Near boiling water placed in a thermos gets poured into the gourd and refilled throughout the day until the yerba becomes washed out.

However, modern day drinkers (especially in the States), love their lattes, cappuccinos, cold brews, and infusions so the mate culture seems to be incorporating these ways of drinking mate in addition to the traditional gourd & thermos!
