Off my otherwise-continuous coffee binge (we ran out of coffee, and the stores are closed). Immediately started drinking yerba mate instead.
Much more pleasant. Scarcely any nasty side-effects, compared with coffee. May end up switching over full time.

No. Tried it and didn't like it. You can taste the metal, but also I'm a klutz and will burn myself doing it because the metal is so conductive.
I drink it either from a french press or after filtering it through a sieve, mostly.

Oh right okay. Is it quick to make? Seen you can get tea bags but not sure if it will be any good

Don't get the tea bags. Buy the herb and filter it yourself.
With a french press, you just plop some boiling water on it for 5 minutes like you're brewing coffee. You can also brew it like normal tea, but it's convoluted and you need colder water to avoid making it too bitter.
