For most Uruguayans and Argentinians it is a part of their daily lives, permeating throughout their work, family, friendships, and love. It is described by many as something that awakens your soul. As they often say, "Mate es vida!" Mate is life! TRADITIONSPeople drink and carry it most anywhere and usually enjoy it 3 times per day, then again whenever meeting with friends.Yerba Mate is the perfect herb to share with loved ones. It stimulates the mind yet relaxes the body, uplifting the mood and spirit of the moment with a joyous energy. Folks traditionally prefer to share it under a tree together, but it can be enjoyed anywhere at anytime! SHARING RITUALS Centuries of yerba mate tea sharing have led to some refined rituals that are designed to create a smooth, fluid process. These rituals are common to small and large groups alike.One person prepares the drink and takes the first serving before sharingThe server is referred to as the "Cebador," which translates literally into The Yerba Mate Gourd & Bombilla Server. Whew! That does not translate smoothly because the entire concept does not even have a word in English. Fortunately, being the Cebador is easy and rewarding.Once prepared, the Cebador takes the first sip to ensure that the bombilla is working smoothly. The cebador also reaps the benefit of that first sip's nutrient and energy packed punch. The Cebador will use this energy to pay attention and make sure everyone is getting some yerba mate.When passing, the bombilla is pointed toward the closest personThis subtle ritual provides enormous clarity and ease. It allows people to focus on the conversation and not have worry about when to reach out for the gourd. It also avoids confusion when the drinker gestures with gourd in hand while having a discussion.The bombilla is left undisturbedThe bombilla is delicately sealed in a suction chamber that is best left undisturbed. Moving the bombilla can break the seal and cause clogging.Recipient drinks entire serving, ending with a sucking sound.Gourd is returned to the person who gave it to you, without saying thank you!Send it back toward the Cebador by giving it back to the person who gave it to you. You only say thank you when both yourself and the person next to you has said thank you. This ritual allows people to focus on the conversation, and not have the passing of the gourd cause much interruption. This also allows each person to take care of the person next to them, so that the Cebador does not have to interrupt to ask if anyone wants more.Pass it to the next person after you've had a turnIf you have already had your opportunity to drink a serving, then pass it to the next person. You will always take care of the person next to you.When the person on each side of the Cebador says “thank you” to the Cebador, then the Cebador stops serving.You and your loved ones have been uplifted from an ancient and communal tea ritual that is performed millions of times each year across the globe.HEALTH BENEFITS*BOOSTS THE IMMUNE SYSTEM.*GREAT DETOXIFIER.*BURNS MORE CALORIES.*AIDS IN WEIGHT MANAGEMENT.*APPEARS TO INCREASE THE SUPPLY OF NUTRIENTS AND OXYGEN TO THE HEART DURING EXERCISE.*DECREASES HUNGER CRAVINGS.*INCREASES MENTAL ENERGY AND FOCUS.*IMPROVES MOOD.*PROMOTES DEEPER SLEEP.HOW TO PREPARE A GOOD MATE:Pour 3/4 yerba mate into your gourd.Cover the gourd with the palm of your hand, turn it upside down and shake it so that the yerba mate settles and eliminates the dust.Pour warm water onto part of the yerba mate.Relax as the yerba mate awakens.Put the straw into the yerba mate.Pour in hot water and drink.
