Ich weiß nicht, wie Mate schmeckt, irgendwann muss ich das probieren.

Kollege meint "die erste Flasche schmeckt wie Aschenbecher auslecken, aber danach ist es gut."

Und ich sage "Das sollten die als Slogan nehmen, 'einfach durchziehen, ab zweiter Flasche geil!', so wie Cola 'Kalt genießen' damals beworben hat."

Und dann zeigt er mir, dass "Club-Mate" wirklich den Slogan "...man gewöhnt sich dran!" hat.

Was für geiles, beklopptes Marketing ist das bitte?!

Last day. Last #ClubMate bottle. #38C3

Erklärung ausstehend.

It's cold outside, how about making today a #WaffleWednesday? We can recommend this #vegan #waffle recipe from @c3WOC, prepared in style with #ClubMate:

And for more adventurous hackers, there are also these green oat mate tea waffles:

(German, feel free to use a translator.) We've heard that #C3WOC may not be serving their creations at #38C3, but we can honor their work of making vegan waffles by #DIY on days like today, right?

I can't get Club Mate here in Canada.

It was already difficult in the US, but I've yet to find anywhere I can buy it here so I'm thinking about making my own, which I've done in the past.

It's actually not very difficult- Club Mate is basically just yerba mate concentrate (ie brewed yerba mate), citric acid, sugar, and carbonated water.

In fact I even made my own sugar free version using Monkfruit, and it was great!

But then I had an idea, and I don't know if it's a good idea, or just plain crazy, so I'm curious if anyone else has made this:

Naturally carbonated (ie fermented) Mate soda.

I'd basically brew it like ginger ale, and then let it ferment to give it carbonation.

It would result in a little tiny bit of alcohol as a byproduct, but not enough to make an an alcoholic beverage.

Has anyone made this?

This is surprisingly as good as the regular one…
