We are hosting our friends Roderick and Gwen from Mesmer Kava in the Lucky You Lounge for a guided kava education experience!
Kava-infused spirits and ready-to-drink cocktails are the best-selling products in our alcohol-free bottle shop. This is an opportunity for all of our kava fans to go deeper with this powerful plant. In this guided experience, we’ll explore why traditional kava has been used for centuries as a social, calming, clarity-enhancing drink, and why it works so well for modern adults who want presence, ease, and connection without intoxication.
You’ll Learn*;
- What kava actually is (and what it is not)
- Why kava supports relaxation and sociability without dulling awareness
- How kava differs from alcohol at the nervous system level
- Why quality, preparation, and dosage matter
- How to use kava intentionally as part of a healthier social ritual
- Where it comes from and some of the history and culture behind the beverage
The event includes a guided experience of traditional kava, paced intentionally so you can feel the effects clearly and comfortably. There will be time for questions, conversation, and reflection. This is not a party, and not a lecture. It’s a thoughtful, embodied introduction to a different way of unwinding and connecting.
Tickets are $45 and space is limited to 20 participants. Reserve your spot here. Must be 21+ to enter with valid government-issued photo ID.
