Hi Kiara, I was watching a little bit of your stream and I heard you talking about energy drinks and how you would like an alternative. I have exactly what you need it's called mate. This girl drinks it here in this video nd she pronounces it correctly.
>Eating like the Pope for a dayhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPOi_pUiI6MBasically it's tea from the new world. Heres the qrd if you can understand spanish. Basically it was treasured crop of the natives but then the Spaniards came over and the priests started to brew it in tea and gave it to the natives so they would stop being drunks and could be productive.
>¡El mate no es argentino ni uruguayo!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnZ_SJ6IDD8There are so many benefits to it, you'll love it. It naturally has caffeine. One cup of mate has the same caffeine as one cup of coffee. But coffee gives you a spike and then a crash, whereas mate gives you smooth high energy with no crash. It also has tons of antioxidants, it helps stimulate your brain, helps concentration, and it is a natural performance enhancer which is why all the soccer players drink it. Here is how to prepare it.
>COMO PREPARAR un MATE (CEBAR)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwrmTSMmcaIBasically fill to three fourths of the cup, tilt to side, pour a little water slowly and leave tilted so the leaves absorb the water. The you can pour the hot water and insert the bombilla (metal straw). I recommend havi g the water at 60 celcius otherwise too much flavor is extracted and you will dislike it. It's an acquired taste. I also recommend for your first time you squeeze some lemon in there and maybe even some honey or sugar to sweeten it. Its perfectly normal to drink mate sweet and with lemon water. Put the lemon and honey in your thermos. Also no stirring the mate ever! Here is a guide in English if you like

You can also mix the mate with your favorite tea leaves. I like mixing with mint and sometimes hibiscus. That combined with the honey lemon water is so good. It's probably good for your throat too since you have to talk and sing so much. Next thing you know you'll be carrying it around all ay just like the soccer players

Anyway I hope that helps you Kiara! Good job Kiara.
