A gooey marshmallow melting between a cinnamon graham cracker with a few snaps of chocolate for the perfect campfire treat. Cultyvada Moída Grossa encapsulates this in both flavor and feeling.
Warm chai-like flavors of cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar and molasses coalesce with signature Brazilian green malt for warm hug of an erva. There’s no milk, but you’d think you’re drinking this with hot milk. Wholesome, motherly energy radiating from my cuia, passionately, with kind maternal eyes, begs me to pour more water. I smile, while sipping another cycle.
Ingredients
Brazilian erva mate.
Brewing Instructions
Brew for 3–5 minutes in hot water (150–170ºF, 65ºC–76ºC) to achieve a full-bodied flavor. For a brighter, cleaner taste, brew in cold water. Optionally, use a traditional yerba mate cup (or cuia) and bombilla/bomba (filtered straw) until the flavor fades. Add a touch of honey for sweetness. Enjoy!
