Kava is served as a Welcome Drink and plays a big role in the customs and cultures of Fiji.
Do you know: Kava is not actually a psychedelic drug and cannot actually make you hallucinate or have visions.
Kava is a root of the Yakona bush, which is a relative of the Pepper plant. This bitter and peppery drink is served as a Welcome Drink to any one who enters Fiji. It is a Fijian custom where it is considered that the Kava Drink brings two groups of people together. Once the groups have shared a drink of kava, they consider each other friends.
