Default Yerba Mate

So I bought a kilo of dried leaf. Anyone else done it? What's your preferred method of ingestion?

"Done it"? You make it sound like its a strong narcotic. I usually make large thermoses of it and just boil a few tablespoons of material. It has a decent kick for a tea, but thats about it, don't expect anything special or noteworthy.

I'm not looking to get fucked up or anything.
I figured tea was probly the way to go first off. It's good to have some confirmation.

Also, I'm glad I made it sound like a strong narcotic. It was simply the only method I could use to express how hardcore I am.

QFT. This guy makes caffeine into meth simply by being around it.

Yerba Mate is some good damn tea, but what is this doing in BLTC?

Put it in that shitty fucking culinary forum. I forget the name, but seriously, that forum sucks balls.

Just take like half an ounce, and add it to some warm liquid (below 80F). Then add some sugar and/or whiskey and sip it out of a gourd with a bombilla.

Definitely an acquired taste. It took me a few coffee pots worth until I liked it. Mix in some green tea 'cause they taste awesome together.

I wish I was around in Jesus's time... I mean like say he can perform miracles and whatnot, and we all know he was a stoner.

He'd roll a pin joint that would look like this


-------------------------------------------------


and it would never go out, canoe, or end.



I wish I knew Jesus =(

Actually, no.... Neither caffeine nor *ahem* tea leaves can be absorbed through the skin.

I know, those caffeinated soap bars are a scam, eh?
