enjoy!

>>53346379
Never ever yerba your mates

>>53346480
Doesn't that thing gives you cancer?

>>53346639
enjoy!

>getting cancer from consuming an herbal infusion

>>53346921
He's probably talking about the metal straw

>>53346989
but in that case would be related to the quality of the metal straw, the cheaper the straw is, the worse material, and then maybe you get some risk...

but anyway,
It is unlikely to have cancer just for that

>>53347241
If it's aluminum it might increase the risk of alzheimers or other age-related brain disorders but cancer is a bit of a stretch

>>53347564
ok then, give me a valid source that proves that mate in particular produces cancer or something

Wtf Argentinians stealing our culture that's and ERVA MATE, and that wood thing that looks like a pipe is a CHIMARRÃO

>>53346480
>>add sugar
Don't listen to this degenerate rite here. Adding sugar to mate will make you a faggot

>>53349478
w-what about honey

>>53347564
they are not made out of aliminium though

>>53348363
I'm not the guy who said that

>>53349499
>adding honey to mate

heresy

>>53349499
>honey

absolutely disgusting.png

>>53349499
just taste it in both ways, with and without sugar, and you will decide what you like more

Is it supposed to taste like a Brazilian enema? How hot should the water be?

>>53350286
don't say that, set firm rules. he's american, he'll add corn syrup and salt and margarine if you let him

>>53350415
>knock-off America thinks he's not American

Adorable

Is coca tea legal everywhere in South America, or just the coke-growing countries?

What's so special about this particular herbal mixture?

>>53350348
Tastes and smells like tobacco 2bh

>>53350603
it's not about the herbal mixture itself, it's about the act of drinking mate, you can share it with friends, family etc, it's a very social activity

>>53351669
>Tastes and smells like tobacco 2bh

wtf? not at all, I don't know what have you tasted (if you did), but that wasn't yerba mate

>>53350348
>>53351669
You're supposed to spit out the first 5-10 mouthfuls of mate. Or well, at least I do.

That black shit you're sucking up are the dregs of the yerba mate.

And the water shouldn't be boiling hot, that can cause mouth and throat cancer.

>>53350559
Maybe in bolivia, but outside of it it's not (probably). I've never seen such a thing here.

Better than anglo "tea"
