                                According to user surveys, many traditional yerba mate drinkers report that the energizing effects of a single serving can last for 3 to 6 hours. This smooth, sustained energy is one of the key differences when comparing yerba mate to other caffeinated beverages like coffee, which often produces a faster spike and subsequent crash.
