Sherba Stainless Steel Mate Cup
The Sherba Mate Cup is a double-wall, food-grade 304 stainless steel gourd built for daily mate, hot or cold. It holds 6oz (180ml), the traditional gourd size, and won't rust, chip, or affect the taste of your yerba. Pairs with the Sherba Bombilla, sold separately.
Some people call it a mate cup, some a gourd, some a mate mug, and in Lebanon you will also see it spelled "matte." It is the same thing: the vessel you fill with yerba and sip through a bombilla. The double-wall build helps hot mate stay warm and cold tereré stay cool.
A cup needs a bombilla and yerba. Add the Sherba Bombilla and a bag of loose leaf yerba mate, or get everything together in the Starter Kit. New to mate?

Built for the ritual. Engineered to last.
The Sherba cup is made from 304 grade stainless steel the same standard used in professional kitchens and medical equipment. Safe, non-reactive, and built to last.
Unlike painted or coated cups, the interior is bare stainless steel meaning nothing leaches into your drink. What you taste is pure yerba mate, nothing else.
Stainless steel doesn't absorb moisture, bacteria, or odors. Your cup stays clean, hygienic, and fresh-tasting session after session.
The double-wall design traps heat inside, keeping your yerba mate warm for longer without burning your hands on the outside. The perfect sip, every refill.
The insulated walls prevent moisture buildup on the outside so the cup stays dry, comfortable to hold, and easy to grip even in cold weather.
Mate is meant to be enjoyed slowly, refilled often. The Sherba cup holds temperature across cebadas so your session isn't rushed by a cooling cup.
The smooth stainless interior resists residue and staining. A quick rinse after each session is all it takes no scrubbing, no soaking, no special products.
Whether it lives on your desk, your kitchen counter, or travels with you the Sherba cup is built to handle real life without denting, cracking, or fading.
There's a difference between drinking mate and doing it properly. The Sherba cup is the tool that makes your morning routine feel intentional every single day.

EARLY SHERBA FEEDBACK
Honest feedback from three early testers who tried Sherba during work, training, and their everyday routines.
“The quality of Sherba Mate is unmatched in Lebanon. Smooth and clean flavor, consistent energy all day. I am addicted to this product and can’t wait for it to be all over the Lebanese market because it will be a staple item in my kitchen for life.”
“Sherba Mate has been a beautiful discovery. The taste feels grounding, rich, real, and naturally organic. I love it as an alternative to coffee because it gives a gentle, steady energy without heaviness and feels lighter on my digestion. As a farmer, knowing where it comes from and who it supports makes it even more special.”
“I decided to replace coffee with maté, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The energy feels softer, more stable, and kinder to the body. When I discovered Sherba Maté, I really loved it smooth, balanced, clean, and clearly higher quality than the supermarket brands I had tried.”

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.
