Hey guys happy to have found this forum! I am a newcomer to Kava. Only heard about it 6 months ago & finally got the nerve to buy/try it as I'm looking for a way to end my day without having a beer (or 4. You know how drinking "one" beer goes). Anyway, I bought Nagol Noble from the bulakava house & tried my hand at a batch. I added 2c h20 & 1c silk to a blender with 1/2c Kava. blended for 2 min, strained twice with a mesh strainer then took a shot. I spaced it out, drinking a 2oz shot every 10-15min for the first 40 min. I kind of felt a little something so at 1 hour drank a huge 6oz portion to get the full effect. Total I had 2 6oz shells in about an hour & a half. They tasted terrible & even 40 min later I felt nothing, maybe a bit dizzy. And here's where I might have gone really wrong, I had a glass of wine. I heard that it can up the effect of Kava. Well, it sure did. After that I experienced extreme nausea for the rest of the night. I even threw up. I was freaking chill as shit about it though, despite feeling like every sip of water or bite of food was going to make me retch. I was nauseous well into the next day, stuck on the couch trying to keep my mind off the fact I could feel the earth moving. I thought I strained the kava well enough does the sediment upset stomachs? I really want to try drinking Kava again but I want to have a good experience.
Thanks for any advice,
Kava Noob.
