Alternative to Coffee

Roasted yerba mate has a richer, nuttier flavor compared to the traditional version. Roasting the leaves reduces bitterness and gives a smoother taste. Roasted yerba mate still contains caffeine but may have a slightly different stimulating effect. It has a robust, earthy flavor that pairs well with milk or cream.

It is often considered less stimulating than coffee, but with a longer-lasting energy boost. The roasted version is sometimes used in culinary applications, such as in desserts and marinades.
