Regular users and sharing
*Based on 5–10g per modern cup; traditional preparation differs.
Hot, French press and iced preparation
Use 5–10g per cup with approximately 70–80°C water and steep for 3–5 minutes. Use a French press for easy straining, or cool a stronger infusion and serve over ice.
Compared with coffee
Both contain caffeine, but their flavour and brewing ritual differ. Yerba Maté strength can vary widely, especially with traditional repeated refills.
Caffeine and important safety information
Yerba Maté naturally contains caffeine. Prepared strength varies with the amount used, water temperature, steeping time and repeated infusions. Start conservatively if you are caffeine-sensitive and avoid it close to bedtime.
Ask an appropriate healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an anxiety disorder, heart-rhythm condition or uncontrolled blood pressure, or use stimulant medicines, MAO inhibitors, some decongestants or other products containing caffeine. Count coffee, tea, energy drinks, chocolate and pre-workouts toward your total daily caffeine.
