Teapigs - yerba mate - energy brew - 15 tea temples - £5 GBP from Coffee Union - cheaper on the www.teapigs.co.uk website. The back of the box said it was a "love or hate" kind of tea, so I had to try it. It's native to South America and it's meant to "increase focus and alertness while helping with detoxing and weight loss". Apparently - I find it soothing and relaxing, with a real "...aaaah" (and relax) sensation. It's got a slightly smokey aspect to it and reminds me of Masala Chai tea, but with a sweeter end of cup taste. Great for work day afternoons it's relaxing and soothing, but doesn't make you too sleepy. (picture added)Labels: south america, tea temples, Teapigs, yerba mate
