Dawnwalker Mate Tea

Dawnwalker Mate Tea is a potent, yerba mate blend crafted for clarity and sustained energy, the perfect companion for dawn patrol until the stars come out. We start with shade-grown, air-dried yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) from small South American farms rich in caffeine, theobromine, and polyphenols for smooth, jitter-free focus. Then we layer in a masterful synergy of traditional and modern adaptogens, detoxifiers, and nootropics.

The Blend

Clean Energy.
Deep Roots.

Most energy drinks trade long-term wellbeing for a short-term jolt. Dawnwalker was built differently. We start with premium yerba mate — naturally rich in caffeine, theobromine, and polyphenols — for clean, sustained energy without the crash that follows stimulants alone.

“Not just awake. Focused, grounded, and ready — for whatever the day asks of you.”

Then we go deeper. Lion’s mane and reishi add cognitive clarity and immune resilience. Ashwagandha and astragalus — two of the world’s most revered adaptogens — build stress tolerance and sustained vitality. Dandelion, chicory, and nettle root contribute mineral depth and gentle detox support beneath it all.

Hawthorn leaf and tulsi lift the heart and spirit. Lemon balm and jasmine soften the edges into something you actually want to linger over. This is mate grown up — still wild, still strong, but wiser.

Yerba Mate — The Foundation
Rich in caffeine, theobromine, and chlorogenic polyphenols. Delivers clean, sustained energy with mental sharpness — without the cortisol spike or crash of coffee.
Lion’s Mane & Reishi
Lion’s mane supports nerve growth factor and cognitive clarity. Reishi modulates immune response and counters the inflammatory cost of high-output days.
Ashwagandha & Astragalus
Legendary adaptogens, both. Ashwagandha lowers cortisol and builds physical resilience. Astragalus tonifies the immune system and supports vascular integrity over time.
Dandelion, Chicory & Nettle Root
The mineral and detox layer. Prebiotic inulin from chicory and dandelion feeds the microbiome. Nettle root delivers iron, silica, and potassium — genuine nourishment, not decoration.
Hawthorn, Tulsi, Lemon Balm & Jasmine
The spirit layer. Hawthorn opens the heart and supports circulation. Tulsi adapts the nervous system. Lemon balm calms mental noise. Jasmine brings the aroma that makes this a cup worth pausing for.

What’s Inside

Every Ingredient, Earned Its Place

All organic or wildcrafted. No fillers. No flavoring. Eleven plants, each chosen for a specific reason.

The Base

Ilex paraguariensis
The anchor of the blend. Caffeine, theobromine, and polyphenols in a naturally balanced ratio. Clean energy, no spike, no crash. Thermogenic and antioxidant-rich.
Extract

Hericium erinaceus
Supports nerve growth factor synthesis. Cumulative cognitive nourishment — focus, memory, and neural resilience that deepens with consistent use.
Extract

Ganoderma lucidum
The immune modulator. Counters the inflammatory burden of stress and high output. Supports restful recovery without sedation. A long-game herb.
Taraxacum officinale
Mineral-rich and gently diuretic. Supports liver function and kidney health. Contributes a tea-like, smooth flavor that rounds the mate’s earthiness.
Cichorium intybus
Prebiotic inulin feeds the gut microbiome. Roasted, coffee-like depth that pairs naturally with yerba mate’s grassy profile. Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant.
Urtica dioica
Dense in minerals — iron, silica, potassium, calcium. Earthy undertone, genuine nourishment. Supports the body’s structural and hormonal systems quietly in the background.
Crataegus spp.
Cardiovascular support and subtle tartness. Supports healthy blood pressure and heart muscle tone. A traditional “heart herb” in the deepest sense of both words.
Ocimum tenuiflorum
Tulsi / Holy Basil
Full-spectrum adaptogen. Modulates cortisol, lifts mood, steadies the nervous system. One of Ayurveda’s most revered plants — present here for a reason.
Melissa officinalis
Calming nervine that eases mental noise without dulling sharpness. Smooths the stimulant edge of the mate into something measured and sustainable.
Aromatic

Jasminum sambac
Jasmine Flower Petals
Aromatherapy in every cup. Jasmine’s floral compounds support relaxed alertness and reduce anxiety. Visual beauty and genuine functional value, both.
Astragalus membranaceus
Revered adaptogen in Traditional Chinese Medicine for over 2,000 years. Immune tonic, vascular support, mild sweetness. A foundation herb for sustained vitality.
Withania somnifera
Premier adaptogen for stress resilience and physical stamina. Lowers cortisol, supports testosterone, improves endurance markers. Benefits compound with daily use.

How to Brew

The Art of the Perfect Cup

Yerba mate rewards attention. Too hot and you lose the delicate jasmine and lemon balm aromatics. Too cool and the deeper root and mushroom notes never fully open. The window below is your sweet spot.

  • 01
    Measure
    1–2 teaspoons (2–3g) per 8–10 oz. Start at 1 tsp for a lighter cup — the mate is present even at lower doses. Scale up for a bolder, earthier brew.
  • 02
    Water Temperature
    175–185°F (79–85°C) — noticeably below boiling. This is critical for mate. Boiling water turns it bitter and destroys the volatile florals. If you don’t have a thermometer, let boiling water sit for 3–4 minutes.
  • 03
    Steep
    5–7 minutes. The grassy, bright notes come forward first. The deeper tulsi, hawthorn, and mushroom notes emerge toward the end of the steep — let it go the full time at least once before deciding what you prefer.
  • 04
    Iced
    Brew double-strength (4–5g), steep longer if desired, then pour over ice. Cold-brew overnight in the fridge — 1–1.5 tsp per 8 oz in cold water for 8–12 hours — for an exceptionally smooth, low-bitterness cup.
  • 05
    Re-Steep
    Good mate holds two to three steeps. The second steep is typically smoother and more floral, with less of the upfront grassy intensity. Add 1–2 minutes each time.
180°
Ideal Brew Temperature
Steep Time5–7 minutes
Dosage1–2 tsp per 8–10 oz
MethodInfuser, Pot, or Gourd
Re-Steep2–3 times
CaffeineModerate (natural)
25g Bag~8–12 cups
100g Bag~33–50 cups

Keep water below 185°F — boiling destroys the delicate florals and turns the mate bitter.

Traditional Method
Use a gourd and bombilla for continuous sipping. Load the gourd two-thirds full, insert the bombilla, pour water slowly along the side — not directly onto the herbs. Refill with water at 175–180°F as you drink. The experience deepens with each pour.

When to Reach for It

Built for the Long Day

🌅

Focused Mornings
Replace your morning coffee. The mate’s clean caffeine and theobromine carry you through the first half of the day without the cortisol spike — ashwagandha and tulsi keep the nervous system steady underneath.
🏃

Endurance Afternoons
Brew it iced, take it with you. The adaptogenic base supports sustained physical output. Reishi and astragalus build the kind of resilience you feel over weeks, not just hours.
🎯

Deep Work Sessions
Lion’s mane and lemon balm together are quiet cognitive gold — lion’s mane for long-term neural support, lemon balm for keeping anxious distraction from breaking concentration.
