How to make a Kava Chocolate Nirvana

A Rich, Rooted Ride into Bliss

Welcome to flavor, chill, and herbal elevation—today, we’re diving into How to make a Kava Chocolate Nirvana, our in-house recipe designed for full-body relaxation, dreamy focus, and a decadent taste you’ll actually crave.

This one’s for the end of the day, when you’ve finished hustling and need to sink into something warm, grounding, and otherworldly. Think ancient Pacific roots meet rich ceremonial cacao, with a modern smartshop twist.

🌺 A Quick Intro to Kava

Kava (Piper methysticum) is a revered root from the South Pacific, known for its calming, euphoric, and anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) properties. Traditionally prepared as a water-based brew and shared in community gatherings, kava has become a favorite in modern wellness spaces for its ability to take the edge off without knocking you out—or fogging your brain.

The magic in kava comes from compounds called kavalactones. These little beauties work on your GABA receptors (much like how benzodiazepines or alcohol might, but without the hangover or addiction risk). You’ll feel relaxed, social, mellow—maybe even a little floaty.

But here’s the trick most people don’t know: kavalactones aren’t very water-soluble.

🥥 Why This Recipe Works Better

Just like cannabinoids in cannabis, kavalactones dissolve best in fats. That’s why we take the traditional brew a step further by blending it with healthy oils like coconut oil and emulsifiers like soy lecithin. The result? A much stronger, more complete extraction of the kava’s goodness—plus, it tastes way better with chocolate.

🍫 Kava Chocolate Nirvana Recipe

This recipe makes 2 strong servings or 4 mellow ones. Best enjoyed on a fairly empty stomach (at least 2 hours after eating), preferably in the late afternoon or evening.

You’ll need:

• 100g Vanuatu Noble Kava root powder
  (We recommend a mix of Palarasul and Borogu cultivars for a balanced effect.)

• 750ml water

• 750ml milk of your choice (dairy, coconut, soy, hemp, etc.)

• 1 tablespoon coconut oil

• 1 tablespoon soy lecithin

• Optional: 1–4 teaspoons of ABV cannabis flower (Only for those with a valid medicinal cannabis prescription for flower – see safety note below!)

• 2 tablespoons organic cacao powder

• 1 tablespoon honey (melted in a little hot water)

Steps:

1. Blend everything except the cacao and honey—that’s your kava, liquids, oils, lecithin, and optional ABV. Blend like hell for 4–5 minutes.

2. Soak the blended mix overnight in the fridge, sealed.

3. Strain thoroughly the next day using a muslin cloth, nut milk bag, or fine mesh strainer.

4. Now stir in the cacao powder and melted honey. Give it another quick blend for frothy magic.

5. Serve chilled or gently warmed. Pop your feet up and enjoy the ride.

⚠️ Safety First, Always

While we love good vibes and herbal exploration at our kavashop, we’re also serious about safe, respectful use.

• DO NOT DRIVE or operate heavy machinery after drinking this.

• If you're adding ABV cannabis, it must be from prescribed medicinal flower and only used by the person it’s prescribed to. Even ABV can still have psychoactive effects, especially when combined with kava and healthy fats.

• Avoid mixing with alcohol or other sedatives.

• If you’re new to kava, start with a half serving and see how your body responds.
