It's Yerba Mate, duh
I swear, until just now, I had never heard of the stuff. Can I find it in my local grocery store next to the coffee?

Some grocery stores yes, whole foods has the organic unsmoked Yerba Mate, you don't need a gourd to drink it btw. It's somewhat similar to green tea, a little sweeter. Very little caffeine, but it makes you feel like you are ready to rock, no jitters or the side effects of caffeine. It also has vitamins and minerals which are easily absorbed in this form
