Yerba mate is a better herbal tea that's popular in South America and is marketed as a caffeinated alternative to coffee. On LinkedIn, they market themselves as "the perfect summer drink."

"Growing up in South Florida, our lifestyle was shaped by the opportunity to spend time outdoors year-round," the post reads. "That experience led us to create SOLLOS, a beverage designed to complement life in the 'Sunshine State.' 'SOL,' meaning sun in Spanish, represents the sun rising and the beginning of the day. 'LOS,' which is 'Sol' spelled backwards, represents the sun setting and the end of the day."

"This is just another attempt to make money," another agreed. "Do all current governments act so blatantly?"

"Nepotism at its finest," a third person posted.

"No surprise that Barron is taking some random role to help the family grift," another said.

"Like mother, like father, like son," a final user posted. "Always grifting."
