Q. I have high blood pressure and must avoid caffeine. Is yerba mate a caffeinated beverage? I don’t want to drink it if it would affect my blood pressure.
A. Yerba mate is a favorite drink in Argentina. It is made from the leaves of a South American holly, and has about as much caffeine in it as coffee. If you need to avoid caffeine, you’ll have to forego yerba mate.
It's a great tea for antioxidants though, correct? Assuming caffeine isn't an issue.
