Designed for family gatherings, this kit offers a unique aesthetic with its fire-marked gourd and requires a simple curing process before first use. ## Description Yerba mate is a traditional tea from South America, consumed mainly in Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay. As part of the local culture, it has become popular for its health benefits. Traditionally it is drunk in a dry pumpkin using a metal straw with a filter, although you can also drink it in mates made of wood, ceramics, glass, metal, silicone and even cow horns. Due to the natural drying process, before consuming mate in natural containers, a curing process must be carried out to improve the taste of the mate in the pumpkin. 1. Remove any dirt from the mate by pouring boiling water and scraping the inside of the pumpkin with a spoon. 2. Heal the pumpkin with used moistened herb by changing it every 24 hours for 3 and 5 days. 3. To cure the straw, boil it about 15 minutes with 3 tablespoons of baking soda. It is important the continuous care of the mate since is a natural container, if there is some yerba left inside or if the mate is left humid, do not worry, just go back to the curing process and you can continue enjoying your natural mate. As being a natural handmade product, sizes, shapes and designs may vary slightly from what is observed in the photo. ## Features - Handmade natural mate gourd to drink yerba mate, made with a dry pumpkin specially selected for better aesthetics and usability - Stainless steel straw (Bombilla) with spring tip to help filter the tea.
