Kanna Extract Co. Kanna Drops
$39.95
Contains 4 milliliters of kanna extract
Description:
Kanna Extract Co. Kanna Drops are a concentrated Sceletium tortuosum extract in a small 4 ml dropper bottle, made for adults who want a measured, easy-to-dose way to try kanna. If you’ve been curious about this South African plant but didn’t want to bother with powders or long steeps, this is a simple place to start.
Precision is the main reason to pick the drops. Each 4-drop serving holds 25 mg of kanna extract with 1.25 mg of total alkaloids, and you can scale down to 2 drops for a gentler first try. Many people report a lifted, sociable mood and a calm, settled headspace from kanna. The research behind those reports is still developing, so your own experience is the better guide.
The extract is cultivated in South Africa, where kanna has a long history of traditional use among the Khoikhoi and San peoples. We shelve it in our kanna and botanical wellness collections alongside other plant-based extracts. In terms of format, it belongs with tinctures and liquid extracts rather than teas or capsules.
Flavor is clean and cool: organic mint and menthol crystals in an organic glycerine base. A few drops under the tongue go down easily, and they stir into water or tea without any fuss. One small bottle holds 30 servings, enough to see how kanna fits into your routine before you commit to anything larger.
Benefits:
Kanna comes in a lot of formats, and the experience can differ quite a bit from one to the next. Drops are among the easiest to meter, because every serving is counted rather than scooped or steeped. That matters when you’re starting gently and want to know what you actually took.

What is kanna?
Kanna is the common name for Sceletium tortuosum, a succulent native to the dry regions of South Africa. The Khoikhoi and San peoples traditionally chewed it, or fermented and dried it, long before it reached the wider botanical wellness market. Today it’s sold as powders, teas, capsules, and extracts like these drops. Many people report a brighter mood and a relaxed, sociable feeling. The science on what kanna does, and for whom, is still early.
What is mesembrine?
Mesembrine is the main alkaloid in kanna, and it’s usually what people mean when they talk about kanna’s effects. Extracts are often standardized to their alkaloid content so each serving stays consistent. This product lists 1.13 mg of mesembrine per serving, along with smaller amounts of mesembrenone and Δ7-mesembrenone. Researchers have looked at how these alkaloids interact with mood-related signaling in the body, but that work is ongoing and hasn’t settled much yet.
How do kanna drops compare to kanna powder or tea?
Mostly it comes down to control and convenience. A tea or raw powder gives you a variable amount of alkaloids depending on the plant material, the water temperature, and how long you steep. A standardized liquid extract gives you a known amount per drop, so it’s easier to start low and adjust. Drops can also be taken straight or added to a drink. Powders usually need to be mixed or encapsulated first.
What does kanna feel like?
It varies, and that’s worth saying plainly. Many people describe a gentle lift in mood and more ease in conversation. Others notice very little, especially at low servings. Your own body plays a part, as does whether you’ve eaten and which format you chose. Given that range, try a small serving first and pay attention before going further. If you’d like to compare a few kanna formats side by side, browse the full shop to see what else is on the shelf.
Suggested Use:
- Start with 2 drops under the tongue, or stir them into water, tea, or another liquid.
- Wait and notice how you feel before taking more. A full serving is 4 drops.
- Keep it to one serving at a time, and leave space between sessions while you learn how kanna sits with you.
- Do not drive or operate heavy machinery after use.
- Avoid alcohol while using this product.
- If tremors, nausea, or nervousness occur, drink plenty of water and discontinue use.
- Check with a healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, nursing, taking any medication, or managing a health condition.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
- Do not use if the safety seal was damaged on arrival.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from excess heat and humidity.
