How to Cure Your Imperial Mate Cup (Imperial Mate)

To prepare your imperial mate for first use, fill it with used yerba mate or fresh yerba and lukewarm water. Let it rest for 24 hours. Remove all the yerba with a spoon or bombilla, making sure the inside is clean and dry. Then add fresh yerba mate and enjoy your first brew.

How to Prepare and Serve the Perfect Yerba Mate

Fill your imperial mate cup three-quarters full with yerba mate.

Cover the top with your hand and shake gently, creating a “yerba mountain” near the rim.

Pour warm water on the lower side where the bombilla will go and let it rest for 1 minute.

Insert the bombilla on the wet side, covering the tip with your thumb to prevent air.

Add hot water (not boiling) and enjoy your mate.
