I am the one that took this picture. Mate IS strong. I know many stronger beverages in many other places, but still... it is. We are pretty used to it here, children have mate since they are kids. Many people also add sugar to it. I like it bitter and strong. But you can drink it sweet too. Hi, Senem!
