This is one of those rare drinks that you might find at small stores that carry a lot of organic products. This is a local beverage, made in Kitchener, Ontario and retails for $1.75 CAD or for a toonie at some places, tax included. It comes in two varieties - original and lemon lime. They are easily distinguished by their caps - original is orange and lemon lime is green.
For those who have never had maté before, the lemon lime flavour tastes a bit like coke but with a slightly dry and very distant lime taste. For those who have had yerba maté before (real maté in a gourd), this is tastes like a watered down maté with very little sugar and a hint of lime. The aftertaste is heavy on the mate with a faint lime note yet quite refreshing. The lemon can be barely tasted.
The caffeine content is not too high, but it is all natural from the mate - 60 mg per bottle. I like drinking this during the day for the refreshing taste and the temporary boost.
I have mentioned earlier that I prefer to take photos after I have tried a drink which means that you can't see what the drink looks like. However, with most beverages, people know what color to expect based on the flavours. But what should you expect from a maté drink? Well this flavour looks golden indoors and light yellow with a green hue outdoors, or exposed to direct light.
Scores:
Cost - $1.75 CAD for a 296 mL bottle
Taste - 9.1/10
Energy - 6/10
Overall - 15.1/20...don't expect a lot of energy from this drink, but do expect a clean, refreshing taste
