When is National Mate Day?

Every year on November 30.

What is National Mate Day?

National Mate Day celebrates yerba mate, the herbal drink that Argentina shares with Paraguay, Uruguay and Brazil. Brought to the country by Guaraní and Jesuit missionaries in the 16th century, it is now drunk from a gourd with a metal straw at nearly every table, at every hour of the day. The 30 November holiday says thank you to a plant, a people and a way of sharing time.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
