11 Functional Kava Beverages

From Botanical Euphoric Seltzers to Calming Canned Drinks

In recent years, the market for kava beverages has grown as consumers increasingly seek functional drinks, as well as non-alcoholic alternatives that offer both relaxation and wellness benefits.

Kava has gained recognition for its calming effects without impairing cognitive function, and as an up-and-coming functional ingredient, it’s valued for its ability to promote stress relief, anxiety reduction and overall relaxation. These benefits have made it a sought-after choice for individuals looking to unwind without the sedative effects of alcohol or the jitteriness associated with caffeine.

Kava and kratom are often combined in beverage formulations to achieve a balanced blend of relaxation and stimulation, offering complementary effects that cater to different aspects of mood enhancement and well-being.
