Yerba Mate...

who else loves it?
raw? mmmm

anyone go hardcore and order the El Tranquiero(i think and am too lazy to get the bag) from Costa Rica?

good stuff! like an all day energy, i love how it doesnt give you a lame jittery-from-four-kinds-of-sugar high like the typical energy drinks, you just seem to keep going.... and man is it good for you!

haha, come to think of it, Yerba gave me energy to climb Echo Summit from the bottom of Christmas Valley in Tahoe!!! lol, my uncle got it on video too... he was tripping when i called him to check in and said i was halfway up the summit in the gnarliest spot...

but back to the Yerba, who swears by it here?

when I was still shooting video for the companies I worked with in SoCal - we used to gobble the stuff down to help with the up-and-down hiking with all that lumpy equipment at Big Bear!

oh man, that **** is good. keeps me awake for exams after staying up all night studying for them. Not a blend though, it comes from the yerba mate plant leaves, boiled like tea. It's a bit bitter, but still sooo good. Mainly drunk in south america (Argentina loves it), but usually available in most good tea shops in the U.S.
