premium instant kava juice
barava blend
One of the most magical things about small batch kava is the profound differences in experience from jar to jar.
Barava is a uniquely smooth and potent experience every kava lover will enjoy. Not for daytime vibes
What is kava?
Haven’t heard of kava? Kava is made from the roots of a pepper plant native to the South Pacific. It has a fascinating earthy yet numbing taste, that results from the high level of calming actives in the roots.
Natural kava is vegan, gluten-free, nonaddictive, and full of liver protecting properties.
How many servings
All of our jars have a scooper. 1 scoop is between 170mg - 300mg+ of kavalactones depending on the blend or varietal.
This is more of a guidance since all kava's have different experience profiles.
Regardless, expect 50+ servings with a 100g jar
Is kava safe
Kava is generally recognized as a safer/healthier non-addictive alternative to alcohol as long as it is consumed in the traditional form.
For this reason we generally DO NOT recommend non-traditional methods of using kava such as: pills, concentrates, ready-to-drink made with concentrates, tinctures, and micronized kava. These are convenient but aside for the last one, they shouldn't be called kava. In the same way you don't put caffeine in a pill and call it coffee, you shouldn't put extract in a soda can and call it kava.
Traditional kava has not been shown to be addictive in clinical trials and does not activate physiological or psychological addiction tendancies found in beverages and supplements like alcohol or kratom.

“The best of the best,” and this kava lives up to the name.
Barava is, a kava blend that’s turning heads, straight from the Solomon Islands. It has a taste that’s lighter than you might expect, especially for its strength. It’s got a peppery kick with a woody undertone, like you’re chewing on a fresh chunk from a balsa tree. There’s also a hint of walnuts in there, making for a clean, warming, and earthy experience.
The aroma is pungent yet inviting, and the mouthfeel is something special too—a spongy, creamy texture that’s entirely unique from your usual kava. Barava hits heavy with a whole body sensation of warm waves that rolls with heft in the middle of the body but not overpowering. It’s not a knockout kava like some heavy Fijians, but it’s definitely got some weight to it.
This is the kava you reach for after a tough day when your muscles need a break, and you’re ready to sink into the couch. You’ll sleep well on barava, but it might take a bit longer to drift off compared to other kavas.
Although not the kava for daytime, barava is a must-try. It's unique, it's powerful, and it's quickly becoming a favorite night cap for the team. Pour yourself a shell, take it slow, and let barava work its magic. You won’t be disappointed.

about barava
One overall goal (amongst many) is to introduce the different cultures of each island and showcase the best of the best (which is what "barava" means).
This body numbing blend hails from the Solomon Islands and heralds a truly fascinating spongy/creamy mouthfeel that instantly goes to your head. Walnut notes on the tongue, followed by a melt-into-couch experience. Nicely balanced but heavier in the middle of the body -almost "warming".
We're so stoked to finally find a kava from Solomon that we can be proud to put the drinkroot badge on. Needless to say, we're fans, and it is quickly becoming my evening kava of choice... which is saying A LOT

cheers to the world of instant kava
Often imitated never duplicated
drinkroot instant kava starts with a careful selection of either single origin harvests or a hand selected blend of the top noble varietals, to create a unique premium mixture.
After harvest, every amalgamated batch of roots first undergoes a strict QC analysis to ensure premium kavalactone characteristics and content to match your desired experience profile.
The proprietary blend is then carefully brewed and homogenized in a closed temperature controlled environment with warm filtered water to mimic traditional brew methods. After juice is pressed it is rapidly dehydrated so it can be immediately added to any liquid without any filtering needed!
No bark.
No fillers.
No micronized roots.
Pure kava.
