What is Kava?

Kava is a traditional drink from the South Pacific AND HAWAII that is known for its happy and relaxing effects.

The kava beverage is made from the root of the kava plant, which is native to the Pacific Islands.


The root is ground up and mixed with LIQUID to create a drink that has been consumed socially and ceremonially by islanders for over 3000 years.

Kava tastes fresh, earthy, and slightly peppery. You'll notice the "kava tingle" in your mouth - that's because the kava plant is related to the peppercorn plant, and how you know you're drinking good kava!

That sensation is due to the kavalactones in kava. Kavalactones support mood and promote well-being.

But unlike drugs and alcohol, kava doesn't impair cognitive or motor function, making it a popular alternative for those looking for a natural way to unwind without the negative side effects. Meaning, no more hangovers!
