i agree that the apropiate recipients and leaves may be difficult to find outside south america and Lithuania (>>13205247
) but the only preparation it takes is just warming some water, also the effects are noticeable enough to be enjoyable, of course if you want something stronger you can drink black coffee but coffee without sugar its literally shit and sometimes i don't want to drink something with sugar added so mate is a good alternative to that

this is the greatest soda in the history of the world. I've only been to Europe twice but the first time was to Germany and I have been in love ever since. It does have a weird hipster following in America though. In Germany mostly nerds drink it I think.

>>13205308
I drink it because I love caffeinated drinks. I think of it like tea or coffee, it's something you have to develop a taste for. Until I went to college I didn't like coffee and now it's one of my favorite drinks. Mate is another way to enjoy the caffeine.

looks really unappealing honestly. just looking at those soaked herbs and foam reminds me of how unpleasant it feels to be sipping on tea and swallow a bunch of herbs or linden with your sips. i realize there's probably a filter or separate container for the herbs and the water but i think these cups would benefit from a cover
