If anybody is interested in drinking this stuff, I HIGHLY suggest getting one of the gourds and trying it that way.
The taste is very different from what you get when you brew it in a french press.
That said, my favorite yerba drink is: brewed yerba, a small bit of milk, and some peppermint syrup.
Absolutely delicious. Many, many, many lines of code have been written because of that combination.

- shostack 12y agoCan you clarify on the difference? Also, right now I stick the loose leaves into a tea sack and let that steep in my mug--would that accomplish the same function as the gourd? My gut says there would be no material difference in taste between my current method and the gourd, and it would be an unnecessary expense, but if there's something I'm missing as to what it does to change the flavor/experience I'd love to know more.
