How to Brew Yerba Mate...
and the use of the gourd and bombilla

Brewing Yerba Mate needs time and an atmosphere of peace and tranquility, two ingredients that have become pretty scarce nowadays.

This is the moment in which the bombilla has to be stuck into the mate and the water poured into it in such a way, that it has to glide along the bombilla, not wetting the yerba at the top...
