Kava Enthusiast
I am here. enjoying the winter with Kava this fine eve. I began with a handmade shell of Squanch Waka, first I took a big block of frozen roots out of the freezer and threw it on the stove in a metal pan with water on Low Heat.
Next I took a cotton cloth and cut it carefully with a knife to grab a square. I shook out the square and put 1/3 cup or 6Tbsp Kava root on the cloth, folded it up to squeeze it. I squeezed it for about 6 minutes, give a minute to stir the frozen roots on the back. I prepare it in a large bowl directly on the stove and stir with a wooden spoon. While all loose roots belong in the pan on the stove, the bowl I'm kneading is smooth and free of chunks or splinters.
After a kettle of water begins to simmer, I pour more water on my Kava and knead for ten more minutes. I stir, bring to a wooden chair with a sleeping cat, drink.
The roots on the back are still being stirred in hot water. I will cut more cloth to strain them, and squeeze them in fresh cold water, then strain both mixes again into a bowl for enjoyment. I have already boiled these roots and drank the extract once so far, it still smells like good grog. With chocolate milk, almond cereal, notes floating in the air.
