• Foresty Yerba Mate
  

Cutting down on coffee this year but want to stay alert and focused on your work/studies or workouts? Yerba Mate is a South American herb that gives you that energy burst you need in order to get through your long days of work or studying. Mate has more caffeine than your average tea but less than coffee to prevent those jitters and crashing, this also gives it the ability to aid in mental focus. Yerba mate can also be used as a great pre-workout giving you the energy for the workout and improving muscle function during workouts which increases muscle and helps weight loss.

For added flavor check out teas such as Wake Me Up Before You Goand Energizer Factor that have Yerba Mate in it.
