Caffeine makes me shit in my pants, I'm the only person in my family who don't drink this

>>73345108
i have no clue about brands or anything, but i love it

there was this one brand which was kind of smoke flavored. that was my favorite.

mate is not a very common thing here so first it's hard to find anyone intelligible about it and second it's just hard to find in general (or maybe i just go to the wrong stores or something).

answer to question: bitter. never ever sweet (like coffee i guess)

>>73345719
A bit of sweet on your coffee isn't bad at all.

>>73345719
how do you call it?

something like that. we don't use the bomba (is this correct?) or a special vessel to contain it. we pretty much treat is as a herbal infusion.

Oh, that's called "mate cocido"... Like a mate tea.

Pretty tasty and cheap, it's the poorfag meal over here, and the daily breakfast for our army during falklands.

Daily reminder that only Amerindians cam truly enjoy it.

That is why all Argentinians love it.

>>73347516
Does it taste good?

>>73347574
it's an herbal infusion and we literally drink more mate than water per day, in foreigners depends, some says it tastes like tobacco, others love it

what if you go outside then? you take the pava? lol

>>73347574
It does taste amazing when prepared properly, hot water but not boiling, you should try it

>>73347705
I'm amerindian ergo average argentine ergo I love mate ergo you are wrong

I think that going out with mate is more an uruguayan thing, but we also have termos

>>73346003
has orange in it?

>>73347832
that brand have it, it comes in different flavours

>>73347832
Only fags drink it with flavored yerba

>>73347907
eso se aplica a los latinos, los extranjeros quieren todo listo, asi que no pretendas que van a secar cascara de naranja para ponerle al termo

I wanted to drink that shit for years, until my current argie gf got me some, now i want more, but have no idea where can i buy it, and im not shameful enough to ask her for more.

>>73348002
idk man. if it's just orange peel in the prepackaged then that's fine, but flavoured stuff kind of puts me off in general. m8 is ok but I prefer tea.

What is this devils drink? It's got the caffeines in it ah? How do you make it? How do you drink it, what's with the straw?

>>73348489
Mate is really popular here, especially since one voyager-TV celebrity started promoting it in the 90's, he always wears shitty shirts, goes barefoot and drinks mate. I'm surprised that there are some L. American countries without mate, here one can buy it in all shopping malls, although it's probably twice more expensive than in Argentina.

I liked it, but I don't have all that stuff one needs to drink it, still - my friends drink it regularly. I prefer those fruit flavoured kinds so I may be a pleb.

>>73350325

Al mate se lo toma como uno quiere uruguayo pelotudo, no es necesario que lo tome en una fogata cantando el aro aro... Yo ví vender dulce de leche en sachets y no te digo nada la concha de tu madre.

Igual ya sé que haces todo este show para intentar auto-otorgarte un título de "dueño del mate".

>>73350973
well, I know there are polish websites who sell all the stuff needed (the straw, mate cup and even the yerba)

>my friends drink it regularly
really? I didn't think it was that popular, although I've seen a couple of Poles here saying they tried it

its popular here because of cejrowski, a catholic publicist with his own travel show on public TV.

>>73351346
I know where to buy those accessories, but they are kinda expensive in my opinion, some of those "cups" (sorry for my incompetence) cost circa $25, of course one may also buy cheaper versions.

>really? I didn't think it was that popular
Well, I may exaggerate a little, because my friends drink it, probably there are many people who didn't try it, but it's not a problem to buy mate, not only using internet, but in literary every shopping mall/supermarket here.

As I wrote - mate was basically introduced by one guy, I doubt if anybody heard about mate before he started showing it on TV here:

Also I just learned that a lot of argentinian yerba mate industry is owned by Polish-argentinians.
http://wiadomosci.gazeta.pl/wiadomosci/1,114873,11424861,Argentynski_minister__Plantatorzy_yerba_mate_to__polskie.html

one of your ministers called them "polish dumbasses" for wanting to increase it's prices.
Is yerba mate treated like tobacco products? why does the government regulate it's prices?

I've never heard about this incident. Also - some mate in our shops comes from Brazil, it depends on the type, probably - there may be some regional variations, but I'm not an expert.

>>73352903
Why there is that sign "without sugar"? Do they sell mate with sugar in Brazil?

Criminal price, but I guess it's ok...

Keep in mind that brazilian mate is different, needs different straw, it's more "wet" and has like a grass consistence... I'm not saying it's bad, just that they're not the same.

La Merced de campo costs $17-19 per kilo too

i don't really drink a lot of mate cocido but they should be if the raw materials are the same. mate cocido doesn't have the same taste though and people add sugar to it.

>>73354788
>>73354917

To be fair it's quite easy to find in states with people from the South. It's very common in Meto Grosso for example.

Can i use glass as a gourd?

>>73355216

It's possible to use for Tererê, which is the cold version of Chimarrão/Mate

>>73355133
it's good stuff. just be mindful that it mess with your bowel movements at first but that only happens once or twice. also, taragüi sells some disposable mate kits so you could see if you can get that if you're still curious.
one last thing, don't let these uruguayan autists tell you how to drink it because mate is a very personal thing and it should cater to your palate.

>>73355136
Used to drink chimarrao with my ex, it's really different to what we drink here, it's basically dust.

It's not the same but I like it, pisses me off that she and her friends used to eat while drinking though.

Man, only kids and teenage girls drink that. Doesn't surprise me though 4chan has been full of underage in the last years

Leaving that asides, mate is good for losing weight, it fills you up. Though that's just the normal version, not mate cocido as far as I know
