Yerba Mate FAQs
When does yerba mate expire?
All the yerba we ship has at least 12 months of shelf life before it expires.
How long will a bag of yerba mate last me?
If you drink one mate per day (about 35g of yerba), here’s how long each size will last:
- 1lb of yerba (450 to 500g): 13-14 days
- 2lbs of yerba (900-1000g): About 28 days
My personal method? I plan for 2 bags of 1lb yerba per month.
How much caffeine is in yerba mate?
Yerba mate contains approximately 80mg of caffeine per cup, though this can vary depending on how you prepare it. Traditional methods typically yield higher caffeine content compared to mate cocido (tea bag or French press style).
Where should I store yerba mate?
Store your yerba mate in a dark, dry, and cool location, like a kitchen cabinet or pantry.
How do I keep yerba mate fresh?
- If you're using a Yerba Crew resealable bag, simply close the seal to keep your yerba fresh.
- If you have a non-resealable bag, store the yerba in a sealable container or use a rubber band to keep it closed.
