Sweet Mate: how to give up without ruining the yerba
Sugar, honey or sweetener: When to put them and how to avoid mate washing quickly.
The sweet mate has its fans and its detractors, but if you take them that way, there are ways to do better.
Where to put the sugar
- Do not mix with yerba: glues, apelmates and tops bombilla.
- I put a teaspoon into the mountain hole before I barley, or into every mate.
Options
- Sugar: the classic. From time to time, so as not to cover the taste.
- Honey: best dissolved in water from the thermo or kettle.
- Liquid sweetener: a few drops into water and that's best.
- Orange or lemon face: It brings smell and a natural sweetness without sugar.
A word of advice
The hot water with sugar accelerates that yerba will wash. Keep her between 70 and 80 ° C and you'll have sweet mate for a while.
