Welcome!
Welcome to KavaKist! We love kava and want to show everyone new and fun ways to enjoy it. Our co-founder, Matt Warren from Psychedelic Water, has found a new tasty mix: kava with clementine.
In this blog, we’ll talk about what kava is, why clementines are so great with it, and how to make this delicious drink step-by-step. Let’s get started!
What is Kava?
Kava is a drink from the South Pacific made from the kava plant’s root. People drink kava to feel calm and relaxed, and it’s great for social events too. Unlike alcohol, kava helps reduce stress without making you feel tipsy.
Some people worry that kava is bad for your liver, but that’s not true. When you drink kava responsibly, it’s safe and a lovely addition to your wellness routine.
Why Add Clementine?
Clementines are sweet and juicy citrus fruits, perfect for mixing with kava. Their bright, zesty taste makes kava even more enjoyable, especially if you’re trying it for the first time.
Clementines are also super healthy. They are packed with Vitamin C and antioxidants, which help keep you strong and fight off sickness.
Matt Warren says the first time he tried kava with clementine juice it was amazing. The citrus flavor made the drink taste even better!
