How to Grow ~ Yaupon Holly

Organic Coffee Alternative and Wildlife Food, Yaupon Holly! By weight, the leaves contain more caffeine than both coffee beans and green tea —the highest caffeine content of any plant native to North America. Yaupon holly is also high in antioxidants and less bitter than green tea. It is a close cousin of the South American yerba maté (Ilex paraguariensis) and its tea is similar in flavor and quality. Yaupon holly tea has been historically used by Native American tribes for both recreation and ceremony. Early white settlers knew the tea as "the black drink." The Seminoles used it ceremonially, boiling it to excess and drinking it to excess, causing vomiting which they felt was purifying. This is where the name Ilex vomitoria originates from. When brewed lightly, however, as you would any other tea, it is pleasant and harmless. During the Civil War, Southerners substituted Yaupon holly tea for coffee and black tea. Leaves and stems of Yaupon holly may be used fresh, dried or roasted and stored like any dried herbal tea.
