These Lemon Blueberry Muffins are nutrient dense, juicy from the blueberries and pack a lemony zap from the @zappyo Yerba Mate tea. By soaking the oats in @zappyo tea, it makes these the ultimate breakfast muffin or afternoon pick me up snack 🙌
Yerba Mate is an amazing herbal tea made from leaves and twigs from the llex paraguariensis plant. It is rich in nutrients, antioxidants, boosts energy and focus while offering the same power as coffee. All of @zappyo loose leaf tea blends are made with Yerba Mate!
