Description:
The Root of Happiness Extra Strength Kava Shot – Tropical Mango is a ready-to-drink kava extract for adults who want a stronger, more convenient way to try this Pacific Island root. There’s nothing to strain and nothing to prep. Each bottle holds three 20ml servings, and each serving delivers 500mg of Polynesian Gold™ kava root extract (Piper methysticum), standardized to 150mg of kavalactones, the compounds kava is known for.
Kava has been prepared and shared for generations across Polynesia, Fiji, and Vanuatu, traditionally served as a ceremonial and social drink. Many people today reach for it when they want to unwind in the evening without alcohol. A shot like this is a very different experience from a traditional kava tea: it’s concentrated, portable, and considerably stronger per sip, which is why the serving size matters here.
The tropical mango flavor does real work too. Kava root has a famously earthy, bitter taste that puts some newcomers off, and this shot smooths that over so you can focus on how you actually feel. It’s a featured pick in our kava lineup and a solid entry point for anyone plant-curious about kava, as long as you start gently.
Benefits:
Kava shots sit in a useful middle ground. They’re more potent than most teas, easier than preparing traditional grog, and simple to keep on hand. Root of Happiness built this one around a standardized extract, so you know what’s in each serving:
- 500mg of Polynesian Gold™ kava root extract per 20ml serving, with 150mg of kavalactones
- Three servings per bottle, so one purchase gives you room to find the amount that suits you
- Tropical mango flavor that covers kava’s naturally bitter, earthy edge
- Nothing to prepare: shake, pour a serving, done
- Lab tested, with the certificate of analysis linked right on this page
- An alcohol-free way to wind down in the evening

What is a kava shot, and how is it different from kava tea?
A kava shot is a concentrated, ready-to-drink extract of kava root (Piper methysticum). Traditional kava tea is brewed from ground root and tends to be milder and slower to prepare. A shot like this packs a standardized dose (here, 150mg of kavalactones per 20ml serving) into a small, flavored liquid. The two can be very different experiences, so if you’re used to tea, treat this as the stronger format and start with a single serving.
How strong is this kava shot?
It’s labeled extra strength for a reason. Each 20ml serving (one-third of the bottle) contains 500mg of Polynesian Gold™ kava root extract delivering 150mg of kavalactones. Daily values for kavalactones haven’t been established, so we’d suggest starting with one serving and paying attention to your own experience before deciding whether more is right for you.
What does kava feel like?
Experiences vary from person to person, and we won’t promise you a specific one. Traditionally, kava has been used across the Pacific Islands as a social and ceremonial drink, and many people report a sense of calm or ease after drinking it. Some also notice a mild tingling or numbing in the mouth. That’s a normal, well-known effect of kavalactones. Research on kava is still developing, so approach it with curiosity rather than expectations.
Is this product lab tested?
Yes. This shot comes with a third-party certificate of analysis, which you’ll find linked in the Lab Results section below. Clear labels and transparent sourcing are the baseline for anything we carry.
Who should avoid kava?
Anyone who is pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or managing a health condition should talk with a qualified healthcare professional before trying kava. It’s for adults 21+ only, and we’d recommend skipping alcohol when you’re drinking it. If you’re not sure kava is the right fit, take your time. There’s no rush. You can browse our full range of botanical wellness products to compare formats and find what suits you.
Suggested Use:
- Shake the bottle well before opening.
- Pour one serving, which is one-third of the bottle (20ml). New to kava or to extra-strength extracts? Start here and wait to see how you feel.
- Enjoy in the evening or whenever you want to slow down. Many people find kava pairs well with quiet, unhurried settings.
- Reseal and keep the remaining servings for another day; each bottle contains three.
- Skip alcohol while drinking kava, and don’t drive after a serving until you know how it affects you.
