What is Kava?

What are Raisins?

Raisins are dried grapes that are sweet and packed with lots of good stuff like fiber, vitamins, and minerals. You can find raisins in many foods, like cookies, salads, and trail mixes. When you mix raisins with kava, they make the drink sweeter and even more enjoyable.
