Made some mate' today that Mithshrike sent me last year. The first couple of times, I made it with too hot of water right away, and got a bit discouraged because it turned out horribly bitter, today, I got a nice smooth mate' from the french press, just had to put enough cold water in the leaves to temper them a little from the hot water.
Good stuff.
