Tereré (Paraguay)


Tereré, similar to Mate, is a tea drink that originated in Paraguay and was invented by the Guaranís. Besides Paraguay, the drink is also popular in Argentina and Brazil. Cold water is an infusion of yerba mate, which is prepared with ice cubes and herbs such as mint, lemongrass or lemon verbena.

This soft drink is very refreshing and low-calorie, and if it is made with the addition of juice (orange, lime or pineapple), the drink is known as tereré ruso. For many centuries, it was considered a social drink and was traditionally prepared in a large container, decoupled between people, which means trust and sharing.

Tereré is typically consumed through a straw, also known as a yerba mate bombilla.
