Just add water: A gaucho--a cowboy
of the Argentine pampas or %f,10,g\grasslan%grass-
%f,10,g\grasslan%lands --sips "mate" (say ma-TAY) from
a small gourd. He puts mate and sugar
into the gourd, adds hot water, and
then drinks the brew through a
"bombilla," a silver straw that
filters the tea. Wherever cowboys
ride the range, they have devised
ways to take the comforts of their
culture with them.
