SHOPPING SHERBA IN LEBANON
Everything in this collection starts from the same yerba: unsmoked, agroecological, aged in Paraguay before it ever reaches Lebanon. Whether you're picking up loose leaf on its own or a full setup with cup, bombilla and thermos, it's all built around the same leaf and the same standard.
No artificial flavors. No added sugar. Just real yerba mate and the gear to prepare it properly, shipped across Lebanon.
Loose leaf, kits, and every piece of gear in this collection are built around the same unsmoked yerba, not a mix of sourcing standards.
Sourced from partner farmers using agroecological practices that respect the soil and surrounding ecosystem.
Around 24 months of aging before milling, so what arrives in Lebanon is already balanced, not raw off the farm.
Yerba mate naturally contains caffeine, no added sugar or artificial energy blend needed.
Buy the loose leaf alone this month and the full kit next time; the leaf and the standard behind it don't change.
Every product in this collection ships from stock, ready to go as soon as you check out.
The Starter Kit bundles the cup, bombilla, thermos and 500g of loose leaf you need to begin.
Restock with loose leaf mate on its own and keep your setup going.
Prepare it the traditional way with a cup and bombilla, or serve it cold as tereré with a Sherba thermos.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST SIP
Learn about yerba mate, caffeine, preparation, what makes Sherba unsmoked and delivery across Lebanon.
Yerba mate is a naturally caffeinated infusion made from the leaves of the Ilex paraguariensis plant. It has been enjoyed across South America for generations and can be prepared hot as traditional mate or cold as tereré.
Yes. Yerba mate naturally contains caffeine. The amount in each serving varies depending on how much mate you use, the water temperature, the preparation method and how many times you refill it.
Unsmoked yerba mate is dried without exposing the leaves to smoke. Sherba is air-dried at a controlled temperature, producing a cleaner, smoother taste without the heavy smoky character found in some traditional mates.
Fill part of your mate cup with Sherba, tilt the leaves to one side and insert the bombilla. Slowly pour warm water at around 70 to 80°C into the lower side. Sip and refill until the flavor becomes mild. Sherba can also be prepared in a French press or served cold as tereré.
To prepare mate traditionally, you need loose leaf yerba mate, a mate cup, a filtered straw called a bombilla and warm water. You can choose the pieces separately or begin with a complete Sherba kit.
Yes. Sherba orders are fulfilled locally from Dik el Mehde and delivered across Lebanon. Delivery timing may vary depending on your location and order volume. See our full Lebanon buying guide for delivery areas and setup options.
Individual responses to caffeine vary. If you are sensitive to caffeine, start with a smaller serving.
FOUR SIMPLE STEPS
Preparing mate is simple. Follow these four steps, then adjust the strength and temperature to your taste.
Step 1
Fill the gourd about two thirds full with Sherba. Leave enough room for the leaves to expand and for easy refills.
Step 2
Cover the top, shake gently, then tilt the gourd to create a slope and an open space on one side.
Step 3
Add a small splash of cool water to the lower side. Wait briefly, then insert the bombilla and keep it still.
Step 4
Pour water at 70 to 80°C into the same lower side. Sip through the bombilla and refill while the flavor lasts.
