***** What a wonderful tea and caffeine alternative, and not run-of-the-mill, either! With only 12 mg of caffeine, this low-level caffeinated drink is a boost for those of us who don't drink coffee any more. Or who do but want something different. As I drink this blend, I taste the ginger primarily, but also the lemon and the slight sweetness of the stevia. In the past, the taste of yerba mate has been a big turnoff for me, so I guess that the solution is to make the yerba mate palatable by spicing it up, as Traditional Medicinals has done here. It has a healthy, herbal taste that is definitely enjoyable, way beyond just palatable. Highly recommended. *****
