What is \"Instant Kava\"?

Author Kyle Shigekuni / Category Kava / Published: Aug-28-2019

If you're looking for an instant kava recipe, click here

With the sudden buzz around this wonderful tea we call “kava” or “kava kava”, new bars specializing in the tea have been popping up around the nation in dense city dwelling areas. But for many fans and enthusiasts, these bars are still not available in their area, leaving them left to stick it out on their own and home brew.

However, with the arduous process not being well suited for the on-the-go fanatic, there has to be an easier solution.

Enter “instant kava\"

Kava, roughly speaking, is a lot like coffee in certain ways. Coffee beans needs to be ground down, brewed, and filtered before you drink it. Similarly kava roots need to be ground down, brewed, and filtered to be drank.

Coffee has different grind sizes dependent on how you're going to imbibe. There's thicker coffee grind for french press, medium for v/60, and very fine for espresso machines

$\"\"$ $\"\"$

Bowl of DrinkRoot kava

Coffee also has an instant version that is pre-brewed and freeze dried for immediate use (Folgers instant coffee immediately brings back memories of my grandparents). So kava should have one too right?

What is Instant Kava

Instant kava is the easiest way to enjoy the full effects of traditionally prepared kava without the hassle of straining or kneading the root. Unlike micronized kava—which is simply raw kava root ground into a fine powder—instant kava undergoes an extra step that makes it smoother, more potent, and faster-acting. It starts with brewing a full batch of traditional kava using water extraction, just like what you’d get at a nakamal. The liquid is then filtered to remove plant fibers and dehydrated into a fine powder, preserving the full spectrum of kavalactones.

This means instant kava dissolves effortlessly in water—no straining, no prep work, just mix and drink. The effects come on quickly, offering a smooth transition into relaxation, mental clarity, and body ease. It’s perfect for those who want the benefits of kava without the long batching proess necessary of traditional kava root. It is an authentic island experience in the most convenient form.gorm

The types of Instant Kava

\nThere’s two types of “instant” kava’s, Dehydrated kava juice and micronized kava. We’re going to ignore pastes, pills and tinctures since they technically fall into the kava extract category (We talk of them here).\n

\nMicronized kava technically isn’t an instant, since it’s just the regular kava root ground down finer than normal. Just like how you don’t eat coffee beans, you’re not supposed to eat the kava roots. It’s akin to eating espresso powder instead of batching the actual coffee and filtering out the coffee beans. To some with sensitive stomachs (Like me), the root can cause GI issures (more on that in this post for First Timers)

$\"\"$

A tin of DrinkRoot kava's \"Instant Connoisseur\"

That leaves dehydrated kava juice.

\nDehydrated kava juice is made by taking pre-washed kava root powder, then using the well-established traditional method of combining only warm filtered water and the kava power. The kava and water is then meshed and mixed over time to generate the proper blend, in a very similar method to that which you would normally make kava with at home in a bowl with a strainer/bag. The final filtered kava juice is then evaporated to create a dried instant kava powder.

This powder is very similar to something like powdered chocolate milk, or other instant drink mixes like tang, crystal lite, etc.

The result is a true instant kava, able to be immediately mixed into your beverage of choice. In this way it's very similar to something like other instant drink mixes (tang, crystal lite.. instant coffee!).

The real beauty is how you can mix it with any beverage: water, juice, Pellegrino (my fave!), or even a chocolate milkshake.

There are many kinds of kava that claim to be instant. We’ve personally ordered from almost every kava brand in the US, only to find each “instant kava” is usually just micronized kava. (Let us know if you find one that isn't!)

How to use instant kava

So you want to try a true instant kava? Makes sense. It's way too convenient. Well you should probably know how much to use and where it’s from right?

Unlike micronized kava, dehydrated kava juice is an extremely potent traditional form of kava. This means you need less to get the same effect.

A usual serving of kava is 1 ounce of the dried root powder.

For someone who's testing out micronized powder, it’s about 28 grams. For a normal serving of instant kava juice, you will only need about 2 grams, which is 1/2 tsp.

We usually recommend first timers to take about double the amount ~1 tsp, to get over their reverse tolerance to kava.

$\"\"$

Just add powder to any liquid. Mix and serve.

Quick reminders. Please remember to have an empty stomach (usually 4-6 hours after a meal). Also I don't recommend doing it in social situations off the bat, as it's better to get used to the experience first and tune in to that kava vibe. Aaaand please don't drive if you throw back a couple bowls.

Conclusion

Instant kava is convenient, discreet and loads of fun.

Especially if it's brewed in the traditional ways recommended by the World Health Organization (W.H.O.), instant kava can be an essential part of your daily routine.

Plus, It's also nice to not have your 1lb bag of kava confiscated at the TSA security (a story for another day)

Bula bula!

\n \n What You Will Need\n \n

\n\n

\n \n

Recipe - Yields about 1-2 good kava buzzes

2-3 ounces of kava kava dried root powder
2 ounces of full-fat coconut milk
2 cups of water
1 strainer (nut bag, cheesecloth, etc)
1 water boiler w/thermostat
1 large bowl
Slices of Pineapple for taste

\n\n

\n \n Directions\n \n

\n\n

Heat water until reaches 140F*
Pour kava into strainer and hold standing up inside large bowl
\n
Pour coconut milk on top of the kava in the bag so it goes through the strainer
\n
\n
Pour 140F water on top of kava in the same way
\n
\n
Let sit and extract for 45mins - 1 hour (You can go longer. I tend to get impatient after an hour)
\n
\n
Mash and wring out the kava through the strainer inside the bowl for 10-15 minutes (See video for example)
\n
\n
Chill or serve immediately with pineapple slice and enjoy!
\n

This is a slightly different process of making kava tea than the way it is normally consumed. You can substitute in soy lecithin or soy milk or even almond, for the full-fat coconut milk, I've even heard of people using olive oil.. which is a bit gross IMHO.

I believe to the best of my knowledge, the heat extraction combined with a fatty liquid and water mixture works the best for extracting the maximum number of kavalactones from the root. The reason I say this is because when I used to make kava tea with a blender in room temperature water only, I was usually able to re-use the root about 2-3 times and still get some effects, After doing this, when I try to make another batch with the same powder there is little to no effects experienced. This is anecdotal evidence and again, is what works for me. Let me know what you think and make sure to spread the love of Kava!

*I didn't point this out in the video but the heated water helps release the bonds of the kavalactones to the root. However, it is best not to go over 140F as research has shown extended amount of heat in this temperature range actually breaks the active material so it is no longer able to properly bind to the receptors in your Cannabinoid system

You may have never heard of the latest wellness drink sweeping the nation, but kava kava is taking the millenial world by storm

Kava, also known as kava kava, awa, or kawa. Kava is best known in the US as a \"natural\" aternative to such anxiety drugs as Xanax of Valium. Whilst still relatively new to the western world, kava tea is an ancient ceremonial custom hailing from the South Pacific islands for hundreds if not thousands of years. A tea that isn’t commonly consumed for its taste, but rather its naturally euphoric and social benefiting active ingredients that are derived from the roots of the plant indigenous to these areas.

Championship surfers are die hard fans, Even Britain’s royal family has tried it – both Prince Charles and Prince Harry partook in a ceremony knocking back a couple coconut bowls of the national drink on their last trip to Fiji.

Kava can offer both euphoric and relaxant effects with no deleterious effects on cognition. With mental health issues gaining more mainstream attention than ever before, it’s no surprise that Kava and its miraculous list of benefits is exploding in popularity with America’s experimental youth and health fanatics.

\n\n\n\n

\n \n \n \n \n

\n\n

However, Kava tea is also steeped in controversy. It was once totally banned in Germany after a study linked it to liver damage 1. But with so many conflicting sources of information, what do you really need to know about Kava?

\n\n

\n \n The Origins of the Intoxicating Pepper\n \n

The Kava or kava kava plant (piper methysticum) is a native shrub in the South Pacific Islands. Piper Methysticum literally translates to \"intoxicating pepper\" and kava kava to “bitter”, which is a spot on definition to both the effects and the flavor of the extracted tea. Kava tea is water-based drink made from the extracted actives located inside of the kava kava plant roots. South pacific islanders have been enjoying kava tea for hundreds if not thousands of years in the countries of; Tonga, Hawaii, Vanuatu, Samoa, and even Fiji, where the tea is considered to be the national drink of the country and is consumed on an everyday basis.

The tea is traditionally extracted from the plant by first removing the roots of the plant, then shaving off all of the bark covering them. The leftover roots are ground up into a chunky powder which will be used either immediately for fresh tea, or dried out for later use. In America we do not have access to raw kava root due to it commonly spoiling while being shipped (It can take up to 6 weeks aboard cargo ship!), so kava powder is dried out to preserve the key actives and make it sturdy enough to be transported to our ports (Vanuatu ain't close!). This is why whenever you're out in the South Pacific you MUST take advantage of the fresh kava kava!

Kava tea is traditionally brewed in a beautifully ornate large wooden bowl called a \"tanoa\". Here the root powder is poured into a thin mesh bag, which is finally tied shut and soaked in the bowl with water. Although every culture has their own style of ceremonial mixing, usually the bag is then squeezed and set back into the water to be picked up and repeatedly squeezed again. This meshing is essential to extract the active ingredients within the roots called kavalactones.

Once consumed, the actives in the drink known as Kavalactones create a relaxing sedative effect, calming you without impairing your mental clarity. Although hard to exactly explain, as most people's kava experienes may differ, the sensation is commonly referred to as a sensory-heightened state without the corresponding negative effects often found in recreational/social lubricants such as alcohol. However, consuming too much kava in a short space of time may cause symptoms such as nausea, double vision, sleepiness and skin-drying. Anecdotally the author notes that people who have a particular sensitivity to peppers should not ingest the kava root (such as with micronized powder), as this may cause stomach pains/issues.

Kava's popularity has grown so rapidly in the last decade, that even celebrity physicians such as Dr. Andrew Weil have made it a point to state their views on how, \"Preliminary evidence suggests that kava may work as well for anxiety as potentially addictive benzodiazepine drugs.\" Which may come as a bit of a worry to larger Pharmaceutical companies who hold the patents for these drugs, although rumor has that they attempting to stunt the industry in 2002 through the liver scares.

\n\n

\n \n So What's it Like to be on Kava Kava?\n \n

\n\n

There are many varieties of Kava grown across the south pacific, and the experience may vary depending on which blends you try. Some varieties are more blended for its sedative effects and muscle relaxing quantities, and others are blended for a light daytime destresser. However, amongst almost all of them there is a common characteristic for its ability to induce a feeling of calm, relaxation and overall well-being.

After your first bowl of kava tea, there are a couple things you may notice.

First your mouth and throat may go numb, like you got a shot of novocaine from the dentist.

Then after a few minutes you may notice a combination of such effects as; sensitivity to light and bright colors, a \"melting\" feeling of the back of your neck, body relaxing effects similar to a light dose of muscle relaxers, an overall feeling of euphoria and wellness.

Kava tea can be quite an intense experience but most people attribute the journey to a feeling of getting 'high' without the discoordination, mind fog, and negative issues associated with other drugs.

\n\n

Although many variables may exist on your kava journey, there are a couple generic points you must keep in mind.

Kava is known to have a reverse tolerance - Unlike alcohol, your tolerance to Kava will decrease the more often you drink it, meaning you'll enjoy greater effects the more often you drink it. It may take some time to adjust and get used to the active material. Most people complaining about it not working usually have not built up the tolerance for it yet. Stick to it! To get a background, it took 3 trips to the local kava bar before the founder of DrinkRoot even felt anything!

Kava is best consumed on an empty stomach - Food is known to muttle the effects of kava and the combination we've seen, at least anecdotally, to enhance possibilities of nausea. Because of this we recommend drinking on an empty stomach, well after your last meal and sometimes before it. Our Fijian friends hold their ceremonies after work an hour or so before dinner and we recommend to do the same

\n\n

\n \n Potency as a Natural Anti-Anxiety Medication\n \n

The last decade has seen an elevated interest from research scientists who, since mostly debunking the 2002 toxicity scare, have been increasing funding for clinical testing for kava as a natural anti-anxiety medication. In fact, recent evidence of the anxiolytic herb causing hepatotoxicity in the liver suggests \"poor quality of kava raw material as a cause of its toxicity.\" With science researchers Teschke, Harris, and others suggesting \"going back to the traditional use of kava for the sake of the patients.\"

We actually conducted an in-depth analysis on the liver hepatotoxicity cases and founds some hidden statements in the research literature about the correlation with kava extracts.

You can read more about the more thorough article 👉 Here.

The tea itself is considered to be the best natural symptomatic treatment option for patients with anxiety, boasting significant reductions in both placebo and double-blind cinical trials with a 95% confidence interval. Todays stressed out youth are even hailing it as \"Natures Xanax\".

Over 20 clinical studies to date with many more undergoing trials, currently support the tea's rare effectiveness as an potent remedy in easing the suffering of nerve-wrecked patients. An example being the 2013 published clinical trial by the Journal of Clinical Psychopharmacology, stating empirical evidence of Kava reducing symptoms in patients who were suffering from general anxiety disorder (GAD).

\n\n

\n \n Kava Controversy and the Question of Extracts\n \n

\n\n

\n \n\n

\n $\"\"$ \n\n\n \n\n

\n \n

\n\n\n\n

Example of kava extract supplements under question.

\n\n

Extracts commonly come in forms of pills, tinctures, and paste.

\n\n

In 2002 the United States FDA issued an advisory warning to consumers about potential risk of severe liver injury from the use of supplements containing kava.

The industry took a massive hit for decades, but emerging evidence has shown liver toxicity may be resultant from \"poor quality of kava raw material as a cause of its toxicity.\" Experts also believe that the extraction method is the key for understanding the liver damage observed with modern kava preparations, as traditional consumption has not shared the same controversy.

The National Institute of Health actually upholds the only hepatotoxicity cases known to date were on kava extract supplements. Because of this, Kava kava cultivars highly DO NOT RECOMMEND consuming kava in extract form, as questionable chemicals and known hepatoxic parts of the plant may be used to extract the kava from the plant.

The safest way is the traditional way it has been done for thousands of years.

\n \n How To Make Kava Tea\n \n

\n\n

So, you’re interested in Kava and want to try it out? You can either visit a Kava bar and have it prepared for you, or you can opt for the original method used by south pacific islanders. Order some kava, a strainer bag, and get goin! The traditional method can take time, but it’s worth it to enjoy the herb as it has been prepared for hundreds of years…

Mix Kava root powder with warm water in a large bowl. Use a mixture of 2:1 water to Kava powder.
Either press or squeeze the soaked Kava through a strainer such as a paint strainer, cheesecloth or stocking. You’re aiming to squeeze out the Kava juice, similar to wringing out a cloth.
Once squeezed, take the powder mixture out and add it back to the juice you’ve just strained out. Stir it up and then squeeze it again.
Strain the tea again through a fine steel mesh strainer or use a new cloth strainer and be gentler to ensure the cloth retains any pulp.
\nIt’s time to enjoy the Kava. You can choose to enjoy it warm or add ice and enjoy chilled. Generally, Kava is served in multiple servings 10-15 minutes apart up to three servings. The full effects are typically felt after 20 minutes\n

\n
There are techniques you can use to increase the intensity of the tea.

\n \n So Why Do People Use Kava?\n \n

Kava has been an underground practice over the last decade, only accepted in south east states like Florida, where it has been flourishing. But the intoxicating tea has been growing in increasing popularity as kava bars have begun popping up all around major metropolitan areas. Young millenials have been flocking in hordes to newly opened kava bars in New York's Manhattan, San Francisco California, Boulder Colorado, Seattle Washington, Portland Oregon, Wilmington North Carolina, and many more. The social lubricant is quickly replacing daily alcoholic drinks as a safer and healthier alternative to the long dangerous past of alcohol.

Because Kava offers a feeling of getting ‘high’ without the discoordination, mind fog and negative issues associated with other drugs, it is obviously popular as a recreational practice. However, people also enjoy Kava effects for different reasons.

Relaxation: often, people find Kava to be a good alternative to alcohol or other relaxant supplements like lemon balm or chamomile. (It's actually referred often as the 'chamomile on steroids') It allows you to enjoy a calming effect without impairing your clarity of mind.

Sleep: Kava is known to have sedative effects and is useful in aiding the promotion of sleep. It is not a drowsiness-inducing drug, so in reality it simply helps a user get into a more sleep receptive state. It’s worth noting that a very large dose (usually triple the recommended intake) before bed can result in hangover-like symptoms the following day. But a proper dose in the recommended range may help you wake up light and refreshed!

Pain relief: there’s no clinical evidence to support it, but many people enjoy using Kava as a way to aid pain relief. Some of our customers praise the blend for easing their fibromialgia and anti-inflammatory effects.

Pure Enjoyment: Kava is essentially a legal ‘high’ without the drowsiness, confusion and other negative effects associated with other means of relaxation, and the anxiolytic effects are unlike any other experience (at least onces I have tried!). As such, people often take it simply for enjoyment. It was also historically enjoyed as an aphrodisiac in the South Pacific – thanks in part to its reputation as an anti-shyness herb.

\n\n

\n \n\n

\n $\"\"$ \n\n\n \n\n

\n \n

\n\n\n\n

\n \n Conclusion\n \n

The recent boom of kava tea has shown there is a definite interest from all ages for a new less-violent social lubricant than what has been traditionally offered. Side effects are non-existent unless you abuse the herb, and provided you use a water-extracted variant, there is no evidence to support the controversial link between traditional Kava tea made with water and liver damage.

\n\n

All that we know is the world is just scratching the surface in understanding the benefits of this magic and mysterious plant. Regardless what you may think of the tea, It's becoming apparent that kava is here to stay.
