Buenos Aires yerba mate ceremony and alfajores workshop

Experience Argentina's most iconic traditions in a single workshop. You'll discover the ritual of yerba mate, savour various blends and create genuine alfajores within a cosy group setting in Buenos Aires.

Mate is more than just a beverage; it's a daily custom and a social event shared amongst friends, family and even newcomers. In this immersive workshop in Buenos Aires, you'll not only learn how to consume mate, but also how to prepare and appreciate it like a local.

You'll gain knowledge about the origins, history and cultural significance of yerba mate. You'll learn how to brew it correctly, identify different types and delve into how taste varies depending on the blend.

You'll get hands-on and whip up one of Argentina's most cherished treats: alfajores. These soft biscuits filled with dulce de leche are a common delight across the nation and can be enjoyed at any moment.

This isn't merely a tasting; it's a fully interactive workshop where you actively engage, cook and learn in a laid-back and sociable atmosphere.
