Welcome to KavaKist: Mix of Old and New
Hi there, and welcome to KavaKist! This is where we mix fun and tradition for all kava lovers. We’re on a mission to share kava with everyone. As kava gets more popular, we want to show you how to use this relaxing, natural drink in everyday life. Today, we’re adding a cool twist to a brunch favorite: the Kava Bloody Mary.
Why Everyone Loves the Bloody Mary
The Bloody Mary is a famous drink that mixes vodka, tomato juice, and lots of spices. It’s been a favorite for brunch for many years because it tastes great with morning meals. You can add different flavors and garnishes to make it just like you like.
Adding Kava for a New Touch
What happens when we add kava to the mix? Kava helps you relax and feel good without alcohol’s downsides. When you put it in a Bloody Mary, it gives the drink an earthy flavor and helps you feel calm. The Kava Bloody Mary is perfect for slow Sunday mornings or get-togethers with friends. It’s more than just a drink; it’s an experience.
What You Need for a Classic Kava Bloody Mary
Here’s the list of what you’ll need:
- Kava extract or kava powder
- Tomato juice
- Worcestershire sauce
- Hot sauce
- Lemon juice
- Salt and pepper
- Celery salt
- Horseradish
- Garnishes (like a celery stick, olives, lemon wedge)
How to Make It
Let’s make this special drink!
Step 1: Prepare the Kava

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a cocktail shaker, add the kava, tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, lemon juice, salt, pepper, celery salt, and horseradish.
