Description
Mate is known to many as a caffeinated beverage. Mate tea is made from the evergreen leaves of the mate bush, which are first boiled in water and then dried in the oven before use. Since the plant is not hardy, a partial-shade location indoors is recommended. During the summer months, it is also suitable for outdoors.
