Herboristerie Alexandra's Organic CBD Mate combines two ancient traditions in a single cup: the vibrant, grounding energy of South American mate, balanced by the calming effects of CBD. For those seeking an energy boost without the jitters—a gentle mental clarity that lasts all morning.
Some morning rituals can make all the difference. Not the coffee you gulp down standing up, not the chemical energy boost at 11 a.m.—but rather that cup you take the time to prepare, that you savor before drinking, and that brings a sense of calm clarity for the hours ahead. That’s exactly what Herboristerie Alexandra’s Organic CBD Mate offers.
In South American tradition, mate is shared, sipped slowly, and provides a unique kind of energy: immediate and long-lasting, without the sharp spike followed by a sudden crash that coffee delivers. Alexandra has refined this plant-based blend by incorporating high-quality CBD—to soften any bitter notes, balance the sensory profile, and provide that touch of serenity sought by enthusiasts of natural wellness in 2025.
The result is a unique infusion in our line of CBD infusions: neither tea, nor a traditional herbal tea, nor just plain mate—something more distinctive, worthy of ten minutes of your time in the morning or early afternoon.
To learn all about this unique blend of traditions, our article “Discover CBD-Infused Mate” explains in detail the history of this combination and why it makes sense today.
Herboristerie Alexandra selects each ingredient with the meticulous care characteristic of plant experts. Here is what the Organic CBD Mate contains:
THC content: less than 0.3%, in strict compliance with French and European regulations. Each batch is tested by an accredited independent laboratory. No pesticides, no heavy metals, no artificial additives.
Organic certification: The plant-based ingredients are sourced from certified organic farming—a commitment that Herboristerie Alexandra upholds across its entire CBD line. The traceability of each plant is documented from cultivation through to blending.
Taste profile: In the cup, Alexandra CBD Mate reveals distinct, slightly herbaceous notes, with the characteristic mild bitterness of mate softened by complementary botanicals. The finish is clean and slightly sweet, depending on the brew, without excessive astringency.
Mate is prepared differently from traditional tea—and a few small details make all the difference in the final cup.
Water temperature: this is the most important factor. Mate cannot tolerate boiling water—water at a maximum of 75–80 °C is ideal. Water that is too hot burns the leaves, releases excessive bitterness, and degrades the most fragile compounds, including CBD terpenes. If you don’t have a thermometer, let the boiling water cool for 3 to 4 minutes before steeping.
Amount and steeping time: Use about 1 to 2 teaspoons per 200 ml of water. Steep for 3 to 5 minutes, depending on your preference—shorter for a light, aromatic cup, longer for a bolder, more energizing flavor. A standard tea strainer or tea infuser works perfectly.
The perfect time: in the morning to start the day with clarity, or in the early afternoon to get through the 2 p.m. slump without needing a second cup of coffee. The combination of mate and CBD is particularly well-suited for times when you want to stay focused without feeling tense—whether you’re working from home, reading, or engaging in creative work.
Customization: Alexandra CBD Mate pairs perfectly with a touch of honey, a zest of lemon, or a splash of plant-based milk to round out the herbal notes. Avoid refined sugar, as it masks the drink’s subtle flavor profile.
Beginners: Start with half a teaspoon and a short steep (2 minutes) to gauge your tolerance to the natural caffeine in mate. To learn everything you need to know about proper CBD tea brewing techniques, our guide “Everything You Need to Know Before Drinking CBD Tea” will answer all your questions.
The market for CBD herbal teas has grown significantly in recent years. Today, there are dozens of products available—with widely varying quality, unclear ingredients, and CBD often present only in trace amounts. Herboristerie Alexandra’s CBD Mate stands out in several key ways.
Our expertise in herbalism is genuine and well-documented. Alexandra isn’t just a marketing brand created to cash in on the CBD craze—it’s an herbal laboratory that works with plants according to a rigorous tradition, drawing on in-depth botanical knowledge and a formulation approach that puts the plant at the center, with CBD serving as a natural complement rather than an empty marketing gimmick.
Mate is an exceptional botanical base. While most CBD infusions rely on common blends of verbena, chamomile, or mint, mate offers a truly distinct active profile: a natural energy-focus boost that few plants can provide, thanks to its unique composition of methylxanthines (caffeine, theobromine, theophylline) that work in synergy to deliver a gentle, long-lasting stimulation.
Organic certification is a commitment from start to finish. It’s not just a label for show—every ingredient in the Alexandra line is sourced and inspected according to organic standards, with a complete ban on pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and harsh processing methods.

Herbal CBD teas are natural products that require some special storage precautions to preserve their flavor and the integrity of their active ingredients.
Storage: Store your CBD mate in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Heat and humidity are the two main enemies of herbal blends—they accelerate the oxidation of flavors and can promote mold growth. An airtight, opaque container (metal or tinted glass) is ideal.
Shelf life: For best flavor, consume within 12 to 18 months of the packaging date indicated on the package. After this period, the product remains safe to eat, but the flavors will gradually fade.
Precautions for use :
At Weedy.fr, a store specializing in CBD, we select each partner brand based on strict criteria: the quality of the formulations, ingredient traceability, verified legal compliance, and fair value for money. L'Herboristerie Alexandra consistently meets each of these criteria in a way that few other brands on the market can match.
Does Herboristerie Alexandra’s CBD Mate contain caffeine?
Yes, mate (Ilex paraguariensis) naturally contains caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline—three methylxanthines that work synergistically to produce a mild and gradual stimulating effect. This combination differs from the pure caffeine in coffee: the effect builds more slowly, lasts longer, and generally doesn’t cause the same spike in energy or sudden crash. If you’re sensitive to caffeine, start with a smaller amount (half a teaspoon, short brew) and avoid consuming it in the evening. The CBD in the formula helps temper the stimulating effect for a more balanced experience.
Can you drink CBD Maté every day?
Alexandra CBD Maté is designed for regular consumption as part of a daily wellness routine. The organic certification of its ingredients and the absence of artificial additives make it a suitable choice for daily consumption. As with any beverage containing natural caffeine, one to two cups per day is a reasonable amount for most adults. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or have a cardiovascular condition, consult a healthcare professional before using this product regularly.
What’s the difference between CBD Mate and the other CBD infusions in the Alexandra line?
CBD Mate stands out from all other Alexandra infusions because its effects are geared toward energy and focus rather than relaxation or sleep. Whereasthe Zen Infusion seeks to induce a state of deep calm, CBD Mate aims to awaken and clarify the mind while maintaining an underlying sense of serenity—thanks to the unique balance between mate’s natural stimulants and CBD’s regulating effect. This is the go-to choice for the morning or daytime; the milder infusions in the range are better suited for late afternoon or evening.
Is CBD Maté legal in France?
Yes, absolutely. Herboristerie Alexandra’s Organic CBD Maté is made from legal ingredients, including CBD derived from industrial hemp with a THC content of less than 0.3% —the legal threshold in effect in France and the European Union. It is sold in compliance with French regulations on hemp-based food products, tested by an independent laboratory, and may be freely purchased and consumed by any adult of legal age within France.
