Yerba Mate is a plant in the holly genus that begins as a shrub and matures into a tree. The indigenous Guaraní communities first cultivated yerba mate prior to colonization in present-day Paraguay. It is most well-known for its use as a tea, due to its caffeine content and slightly euphoric effects. Yerba mate can be used as an ingredient in spells to invoke love and lust. It can be worn in a sachet to attract a lover or drunk as a tea with a lover to enhance attraction and fidelity.
