yerba

While researching NYC food blogs today, I stumbled across this post about yerba-mate flavored ice cream. Yum. Mate isn't for everyone, but I loved drinking it in Argentina (and Uruguay! especially in Uruguay) and am not sure why I haven't busted out my mate gourd here in the States... maybe I'll bring my gourd and thermos in tomorrow and start sipping away on my little bombilla. I'm headed to NYC on Sunday for a few days and might have to see if I can make a stop at this ice cream shop for a little taste trip back to South America. Man, I'd move to NYC for the food alone...
