Mate cocido[2] (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈmate koˈsiðo], 'boiled maté', or just cocido in Corrientes Province), chá mate (Brazilian Portuguese: [ˈʃa ˈmatʃi], 'maté tea'), kojoi (Guarani pronunciation: [koˈɟoi]), or yerbiado (Cuyo, Argentina) is an infusion typical of Southern Cone cuisine (mostly consumed in Southern Brazil, the Bolivian Chaco, Paraguay, Argentina and Uruguay). It is traditionally prepared by boiling yerba-maté in water, then strained and served in cups. It is a bitter tasting beverage, similar to maté but milder, with the same stimulating and nutritional properties. It is also sold in teabags, so it can be prepared like tea.
