    Any body drink this stuff?

    Mate (beverage) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Got some from the shop the other day and I've just prepared it in a small glass tea pot with the little glass bowl thingy that sits in it (not the gourd with the 'bombilla' as in the link.

    I just brewed it like I brew a tea, but I note from the article you should pour cold water on first.

    Got some of this too:

    Took my wife out for afternoon tea today for her birthday at a local spa. She just stuck to English breakfast tea but I saw one I'd never tried before, a smoked Chinese black tea. It was very good, though it didn't really suit the sweet treats we were having with it.

    When you say smoked, was it a lapsang souchong by any chance.

    I think it might've been but the tea list wasn't very specific. Was really nice but as I said it would have suited a savoury accompaniment better

    I LOVE the bright blue of the cornflower and the red of the goji berries in the 'Mortali-T and the pink peppercorns in the 'Digni-T...
    And they taste nice too...

    I think I'll have the Digni-T at morning tea (after my Work Arrival Coffee (hand ground beans)) and the Mortali-T at afternoon tea...

    (my workmates are making fun of my tea cup and tea pot...)
    I reckon you need to regain your digni-t after climbing a pole to impress them
