a bit about me

In my 20's I was working long hours... and binge drinking. A lot. It took a massive toll on my body, my mental health, my self respect and the relationships with people I cared about the most.

I discovered kava on accident one fateful morning and fell in love with the calming/euphoric experience. I was able to unplug, destress and stay present.

What originally started to scratch an itch, has blossomed into one of the most recognizable kava brands in America. At the drinkroot fam, we feel the frustrations you have with finding and brewing a proper grog to ease those hard days.

We've spent years drinking gallons of the best and worse kava, so you don't have to. Every drinkroot backed varietal represents the cream of the crop

Our dream is to spread the love of real kava and make it accessible to everyone.
We hope you will join us on this mission

From our family to yours, Mahalo nui loa!
