I just make it in my aeropress with a metal filter, does a perfect cup with hardly any powder in the bottom
But that would make a mate cocido, which has a very different taste.
I'm pretty unsophisticated with it, I admit. I've had it the traditional way with the calabash and all, but I made up a way I like. Yerba is my go-to when coffee would be too jittery and black tea ain't cutting it.
Haha, yeah, drink it however you want it, I find it absurd that people think there's a right way to enjoy food/drinks. I drink Mate in the exact same circumstances, tea is not enough but I don't feel like coffee. I'm just letting you know that the name of what you're drinking is Mate cocido, which has very different taste from what most people are thinking when they talk about mate, it's still a very popular drink too.
Thanks! Reading up, sounds like people put a lot of stuff in it, milk even. I feel like the tannin in mate doesn't call for milk, but I could see some lemon or a little sugar. Milk seems out of bounds though, personally!
