Moscow Mule Kava Tonic

Ginger and lime, no copper mug required. Sharp is the operative word here, since the ginger does what ginger does in the original and the lime stops it sitting heavy. Fifteen calories, no sugar, sweetened with stevia leaf extract. The active part is 1,000mg of noble kava root extract per serving. Kava has been drunk across the Pacific islands for centuries, socially and ceremonially, and Leilo sources its blend through growers there instead of reverse engineering it in a lab. The relaxation is a different animal from alcohol, present and unimpaired, and it usually lands about twenty minutes in. Of everything in the range, this is the one that most convincingly stands in for a real cocktail, because a mule was always more about the ginger bite than the vodka. Not for under 18s, anyone pregnant or nursing, or anyone with liver concerns.
