Dietitian note

Caffeine can exacerbate GERD symptoms in some individuals. It can relax the Lower Esophageal Sphincter (LES) - this muscle acts as a barrier between the esophagus and stomach. When relaxed, it can allow stomach acid to flow back up into the esophagus, leading to heartburn Caffeine can also increase the production of stomach acid, further irritating the already inflamed esophageal lining.

Description

Cold-brewed as tereré, the infusion offers a grassy, earthy flavor with brisk astringency and a clean, slightly bitter finish. Leaves produce a smooth, light-bodied texture when chilled; others brew it hot for fuller body. Reviewers note consistent flavor, occasional bitterness, and suitability for shared, pitcher-style serving and steady leaf grind.
