Kava Enthusiast
I posted this on r/kava and figured I share it here in the off topic as it is not truly only kava related.
But wow, I did not think cacao would have this effect with kava. There is something to the cacao that adds to kava, its produces an extra sense of well being.
after drinking about 5-6 shells of kava, I took 3 tablespoons of 100% cacao powder and put it into a cup of water with some added sugar for taste. The first cup was fine after consumption I felt very talkative and had more energy.
I drank some more kava about 4 shells and had another cup with about 3 tablespoons. This time the cacao made my stomach upset, but resided shortly after.
I feel krunk off the amount of kava I drank, but I also feel an extra layer from the cacao. It takes away some of kavas sedating effects and creates a similar but different peaceful mind noted that it is my first experience.
I know there are some kava bars that do kava and cacao. I never understood why until I tried it. I will not be including this in my regular kava drinking as I am wary on any health interactions between the two. But it is something I will experiment with again.
Does anyone else mix kava and cacao?
