Has anyone found or know of a "Kava Preservative" ?

Anything you can add to kava as a preservative, preferably natural, that would cause it to last more than the typical 2-3 days in the refrigerator ?

So make little kava ice cubes, and when ready to consume, put them in some lukewarm or warm water.
Drink it as they melt. It may be weak kava, but it's convenient, but you get the same effects if you drink
enough, and has self-contained water to keep you hydrated !

Or what you could do is make some extra strong grog to freeze into cubes.
That way when it dissolves in the warm or lukewarm water, it won't be so weak.

You could also just defrost frozen 'awa cubes with no added H2O.

Probably not what you were thinking, but I have wondered if kava really took off, and there was a large supply of fresh pre-made kava if it would lend itself to pasteurization.
