Description:
The Root of Happiness Extra Strength Kava Shot – Tropical Mango is a 60ml, three-serving kava root shot for anyone who wants a calm, easygoing evening without rolling anything, lighting anything, or waiting on a gummy to kick in. It’s the no-cannabis option in our relaxation lineup. Kava comes from the root of Piper methysticum, a pepper-family plant Pacific Islanders have been drinking for centuries. There’s no THC or CBD in it, and no other cannabinoids either. Just the root.
Here’s the thing about kava: traditional preparations have a deep, earthy, rooty flavor that takes a little getting used to. Root of Happiness went a different direction. They use their Polynesian Gold® Kava Root Extract and pair it with a bright tropical mango flavor that actually goes down easy, sweetened with cane sugar plus a touch of monkfruit and Rebaudioside M. Each 20ml serving comes in at 13 calories.
The “extra strength” label isn’t decoration. Every serving delivers 500mg of kava root extract, standardized to 150mg of kavalactones, the compounds responsible for kava’s mellow, settled feel. One bottle holds three of those servings, so you can take it one at a time or share with friends.
It’s a shot, which means it fits in a jacket pocket, a bag, or a cooler. Shake, measure, sip. That’s the whole routine.
Benefits:
Kava has a reputation for a relaxed, social kind of calm, and the extra-strength extract here means you’re not sipping a watered-down version of that. Root of Happiness tests every batch for quality and purity, and the bottle gives you three real servings rather than one and done. The mango flavor is the part that surprises people.
- 500mg Polynesian Gold® Kava Root Extract per serving, with 150mg kavalactones
- Tropical mango flavor, with none of the earthy, traditional kava taste
- Three 20ml servings in one 60ml bottle, so you set your own pace
- 13 calories a serving, with monkfruit and Reb M helping keep the sugar light
- Zero cannabinoids, for nights you want to wind down without THC
- Every batch tested for quality and purity, with the COA linked below

What is kava?
Kava is a beverage made from the root of Piper methysticum, a plant native to the South Pacific. Islanders have prepared it as a ceremonial and social drink for generations, traditionally by grinding the root and steeping it in water. Modern products like this shot concentrate the root into an extract so you get a measured serving without the prep work (or the taste of the prep work).
What are kavalactones?
Kavalactones are the naturally occurring compounds in kava root that give it its relaxed, mellow character. When a kava product lists a kavalactone number, that’s your real measure of strength. Root weight alone doesn’t tell you much. This shot is standardized to 150mg of kavalactones per 20ml serving, which is why Root of Happiness calls it extra strength.
How does a kava shot compare to traditional kava?
Traditional kava means grinding or kneading dried root in water and drinking a fairly large, fairly earthy cup. A shot like this one uses a concentrated root extract, flavors it, and portions it into a small bottle. You give up the ceremony. In exchange you get convenience, a consistent serving size, and a flavor you’d actually choose. The effect profile people describe is the same relaxed, easygoing feel, just in a format you can keep in your bag.

Suggested Use:
- Shake the bottle well before every pour, since the extract settles.
- Measure out one serving: one-third of the bottle, or 20ml.
- Sip it and give it time to settle in before you decide whether a second serving makes sense. Start low, go slow applies to kava too.
- Once opened, keep the bottle refrigerated and finish it within a few days rather than letting it sit.
- Best enjoyed on an empty-ish stomach in the evening or before a low-key hangout.
- Skip the alcohol while you’re using it.
- Do not drive or operate machinery after use.
- Do not use if pregnant or nursing.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
