Your first time
Kava is a root from the South Pacific, ground, mixed with water and poured into a shell. It relaxes your body and keeps your head clear. It tastes like bitter earth, so drink it all at once and follow it with a chaser. Numb lips mean it's working.
Tell the kavatender it's your first time; they'll steer you. When someone calls “Shells up!”, raise your shell. Then it's “Bula!”, and everyone drinks. Some bars have a First Time Guide poster by the door: scan it for a one-minute walkthrough.
Kava bars open early and close late, so go whenever suits you: after work, a lazy afternoon, or late.
Sober, in recovery, or taking a break
Kava isn't alcohol. Whether it fits your recovery is your call, and your program's. Kratom is a different plant and can be habit-forming, so ask which drinks have it.
Never mix kava with alcohol. Skip it if you're pregnant, nursing, or have liver problems.

Do kava bars serve alcohol?
Most don't, and we leave out any bar that lists alcohol on HappyKava. Menus change, so call ahead if it matters to you.
Is kava the same as kratom?
