Have you ever heard of Yerba Mate? Yerba Mate is a tea that has been used for centuries in South America. Most known for its vitamins, powerful antioxidant and naturally high caffeine percentage, it is the perfect alternative to your afternoon coffee.
What I ordered: Lavender Latte - Yerba Mate, Lavender, Milk
This drink was delicious and not super sweet. It came served with fresh lavender on top, giving it a beautiful floral scent.
Food: The food looked delicious as well. They have homemade empanadas with both meat and vegetarian options. You can also indulge in one of their traditional Peruvian pastries.
