Definitions of “yaupon”
noun
The yaupon holly, Ilex vomitoria, an evergreen holly shrub with white flowers and red or yellow berries, found in the south-eastern United States.
“Yaupon is evergreen like the American holly and the familiar hollies of Christmas decorations, but the leaves of yaupon are small and smooth-edged rather than prickly. Easy to chew and blandly tasty, they would not stand out in a tossed salad.”
noun
A tea-like drink, "black drink", brewed from the leaves of this holly (or, sometimes, Ilex cassine).
