AMERICANS TRY A NEW KIND OF BREW

Baku, May 14 (AZERTAC). Forget coffee or tea, have a latte made from a South American shrub

It`s not quite tea. And it`s definitely not coffee.

The traditional South American beverage called yerba mate is still relatively unknown in the U.S. But it`s becoming more and more prevalent in natural food stores and cafes, voa correspondent reports.

The Top Leaf Mate Bar in downtown Bend, regon looks a lot like your average coffee shop. But there`s no coffee on the menu here.

The baristas are exclusively serving products made with yerba mate. That`s a large shrub grown in countries like Argentina and Paraguay. The leaves are dried and steeped in either hot or cold water to make a beverage that`s kind of like tea.
