Kava Cocktails

Kava Cocktails: chic alcohol alternatives

Dr. Michele Burklund February 13, 2014

Do you still want to unwind at a party but not feel gross the morning after?  My answer, Kava Cocktails! The Polynesians have been drinking this for hundreds of years and your figure out why soon enough.  This wonderful beverage has awesome calming effects on the mind and body, some even compare it to Valium but it doesn’t impair your judgement or inhibit clarity!  

Kava Directions:

1. The root of kava kava should be used and ground up into a powder.

2. Add 1teaspoon of powder (for one drink) to a mesh strainer.

3. Add mesh strainer into one cup of COLD water.

4. Gently massage the mesh strainer (inside the water) for 2 minutes  (this is to get out all the kavalactones to mix with the water)

Okay, so now time for the fun part.  Simply fill up the cup with 3/4 kava and create your own kava cocktail!
