So the first one I've had the pleasure to try is ambaes. I mixed 5tbs in a blender with 100ml of milk and 400mls of near boiling water. Strained and washed a second time in 250ml of liquid.
Needless to say, I haven't made it to the second drink yet, the first one has my whole body almost numb. From the first sip, my throat has been numbed and with each few sips I've slipped into a deep couch locked wonderfulness that just keeps getting better... I have a wonderful sense of well being and happiness as the warm waves wash over me... this is definitely not an early day kind of kava, but I'm off work today so why not haha, 10/10 would recommend!
