I used to be a coffee drinker.  But I remember the moment of awakening… I was in college, half way through my tenure as a hard core vegetarian and environmental action groupie.

Someone poured a small teacup for me from a beautiful ceramic teapot.  The exotic aromas instantly captivated my senses - cardamom, ginger, cloves… The spices awakened me. I went on to travel after college, steeping in the aromas of different places and flavors of different countries. Fifteen years later, I’ve come a long way, but the aroma of Pixie Mate gets me up every morning, infusing my senses with the memories of past travels and the adventures yet to come. My husband wakes up before me and in the simple act of making tea for us, he shows me his love. There is no better way to start my morning than cupping my hands around my warm mug of aromatic Pixie. Thank you Pixie!

Welcome. Hey Hey Maté is a blog of solace from the company that brings you the cup of comfort. An attempt to capture the evolving culture of yerba maté from barista tales of what goes into the best maté latte to how the sacred sip of South America fuels people to the ends of the world (literally). Plus, some peripheral distractions that catch our fancy. Yes, Pixie Maté (Boulder, CO) is behind this operation...but when it comes down to it, Hey Hey Maté is just another way for 2 amigos to express more big love for the tea of the tree that sings the body electric. Drink Deep. You're safe here. Duane and T.J. (Nov 2006)
