When most people refer to
kava, they are actually referring to the root of the
kava plant. The kava root is where the most potent
active ingredients (kavalactones) lie, and the highest
quality kava extract will only utilize pure kava root.
You want to steer clear of kava that utilizes stems and
peelings, as they will not produce the desired effects
and may possibly be linked to liver damage. At Kona Kava
Farm, every single one of our products is made with only
the kava root, harvested from our all-natural organic
family farm, and aged for more than four years to ensure
maximum potency.
For those who are interested in preparing kava
traditionally, try our powdered kava root. The strain of
kava root that we use is called Mahakea, and it is known
for its extreme potency. It's got the most sought-after
426 kavalactone chemotype, and is available in
quantities of .5 pound, one pound, and 1.5 pounds.
Making a blended drink with our dried kava root is
extremely simple. Just put two to four tablespoons of
the powder into your blender, and choose your favorite
juice or milk product to blend with it. We like coconut
milk or pineapple juice, but you can also use regular
milk, chocolate milk, or other fruit juices.
Whether you use our tasty kava chai or the regular
powdered root, all you need to do is strain the blended
mixture, and enjoy! Your kava drink is a potent way to
start the day, or a soothing way to cap it off. If you
have a social event to attend, try drinking a kava
beverage beforehand and see how much more relaxed and
sociable you'll be. We've also got plenty of
mouth-watering recipes on our website for kava drinks
such as the Cocoawa, the Lemon-Lime Kava, and the Cocoa
Kawa. If you've come up with a delicious recipe, we'd
love to hear about it! |
