mango mate

Long hailed in South American countries, Yerba Mate is finding a new audience in North America. It provides energy without the jitteriness suffered by coffee imbibers. It's herbaceous and grassy character dances with succulent mangoes for a fun-filled cup that is great hot or iced.
Please note that all Mate varieties contain caffeine. Steep at 150°F for 3-5 minutes

I can't figure out if I like this tea or not. There is something oddly floral about the flavor. I don't particularly love it, but I found myself still taking sips trying to decipher it.

For whatever reason, I just don't like mango flavored tea. I have yet to try one that I've liked. Also had to stop drinking mate as I found I'm really sensitive to it. So, not my cup of tea, but I'm sure mango tea lovers really like it!

This is a delicious mate! It has a light tasting mango flavor, but it's not artificial tasting. I like to add a bit of sweetener to bring out the mango flavor. It's delicious iced too.

Not a big mango fan, but it was subtle enough that it didn't really bother me yet present enough for mango fans. The mate seemed really different from the taste I associate with mate. It's really light and smooth. Light like a green tea but not very grassy.

Since I regularly have fresh, ripe mango, I don't think any mango flavoring will taste or smell at all like mango to me. There was a hint of fruit aroma and flavor, but nothing I would consider having again.

I just adore this delicious and succulent mango mate hot and iced. I use honey with Mango Mate served hot and Splenda sweetener for cold brew or iced. The light and refreshing mate is one of my Oh my golly I need some caffeine DAY. Haha

I'm not usually a fan of Yerba Mate but received this packet in my CommuniTEA box. I found it very easy to drink, light in taste but not watered down. I brewed at 150 for 4.5 minutes.

I've been a mate fan for a while now but this may well be my favorite iteration. This is the exact opposite to coffee: delicate, complex, and deliciously fruity.

This didn't taste like any other mate I've tried. It was very light and delicate, almost like a white tea. Though it got more earthy as it cooled - though I never found it to be herbaceous or grassy as noted in the description. The mango flavor was mild, but tasted real and not fake. I added some additional freeze dried mango pieces and it amped up the mango flavor nicely.

Not one of my favorites, but I enjoyed this cold brewed. The floral and fruity flavors blend nicely and make it a subtle but refreshing beverage.

Better iced than hot. The mango flavor is true and sweet so that makes it a clear win in my book!

This is an underwhelming tea for me. I can taste the mango, but it's rather bland overall.

I like the flavor of this tea but I didn’t really taste the mango. I expected it to be fruitier.
