I really enjoy using Yerba Mate in cocktails. It's strong lingering flavor has profound vegetal and citrus notes, that really allow the drink to elevate the imbiber's palate. Yerba Mate is also loaded with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants. Here I showcase a simple gin sour with the addition of a Yerba Mate tincture, egg white and some nice lemon citrus. Cheers!
