What is Kava?
Kava, also known as "awa" or "ava," comes from the Pacific Islands and has been used for hundreds of years because it helps people relax. The kava plant’s root is ground to make a drink that is enjoyed at social gatherings and ceremonies. Kava helps people feel calm without making them sleepy, so it’s great for relaxing or hanging out with friends.
Myths About Kava
Some people worry that kava can hurt your liver, but research shows that when taken responsibly, kava is safe and helps you relax.
Why Apple Cider Sangria?
Sangria is a popular drink from Spain that mixes wine with fruits. Instead of wine, we use apple cider, which is a favorite in the fall because of its sweet and spicy flavor. When you mix it with kava, you get a drink that’s perfect for cozy nights or festive parties.
