Yerba mate

Yerba mate is a species of the holly family, with the binomial name of Ilex paraguariensis. It is well known as the source of the beverage called mate, Chimarrão, Tererê and other variations, traditionally consumed in subtropical South America, particularly northeastern Argentina, Bolivia, southern Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay. It was first used and cultivated by the Guaraní people and in some Tupí communities in southern Brazil, prior to the European colonization. It was scientifically classified by the Swiss botanist Moses Bertoni, who settled in Paraguay in 1895.
