Gift from a co-worker who tried the Yerba Mate and found it to have too much caffeine. I enjoy being the crazy tea lady of the office.

So far I find mate to taste very much like a green tea.

Good for her. I’m always happy when I hear about black cats getting adopted because they are the least adoptable of all colors. Same with older kitties, too.

I love caffeine! I prefer tea to coffee. I prefer my flavors to be in your face, not subtle.
