Kava root tea has been enjoyed in the South Pacific for centuries for its relaxing effects and mild buzz, and in the U.S., kava bars have existed since the early 1990s—long before “non-alcoholic bars” were a thing. The only problem is that traditional kava drinks have a distinctly muddy and bitter taste.
Flash forward to today, and non-alcoholic kava spirits are transforming that buzz and bite into something genuinely delicious—worlds away from the infamous muddy kava water. This Kava Mule takes everything people love about kava drinks—the tongue-tingling sensation, the mild, calming buzz, and that unmistakable earthy bite—and folds it into a mocktail that’s bright, spicy, and very enjoyable.
Kavahol, a ginger-forward kava spirit, replaces vodka with a flavor profile that fits the classic Moscow Mule format naturally. Pineapple syrup adds a light tropical touch to balance kava’s natural bitterness, lime keeps things snappy, and a generous dose of our Aromatic bitters adds warm spice. The result is a kava mocktail that’s refreshing and complex.
