🍊 Yerba Mate Citrus Cooler Recipe: A Refreshing Iced Drink with Orange & Lime

If you love iced drinks but want something cleaner than sugary sodas or energy drinks, this yerba mate citrus recipe is your new go-to.

This cooler is made with Teko Yerba Mate, a clean, convenient way to enjoy tereré—the traditional cold yerba mate of Paraguay. Blended with citrus juice and served over ice, this drink is light, tangy, and deeply hydrating—a true refreshment ritual.

Yerba mate has a naturally earthy, slightly bitter profile. When paired with citrus fruits like orange and lime, it takes on a whole new brightness, becoming smoother, more vibrant, and incredibly thirst-quenching.

Add a touch of honey and mint, and you’ve got a drink that feels both revitalizing and indulgent.

• 1 cup brewed Teko Yerba Mate (chilled)

• Juice of 1 fresh orange

• Juice of 1 lime

• 1 teaspoon honey (optional)

• Ice cubes

• Fresh mint leaves for garnish

1. Brew a Teko stick in cold water and let it chill in the fridge for 20–30 minutes.

2. In a tall glass, mix the chilled yerba mate with the orange and lime juice.

4. Fill the glass with ice and top it off with fresh mint.
