Jasmine Matcha Kava

On their own, both matcha and kava have been treasured for centuries. But what happens when you bring the two together? Surprisingly, they complement each other beautifully.

Matcha gives you that clean, steady lift thanks to caffeine paired with L-theanine, a natural compound that smooths out the jitters. The result: alertness without the crash. Kava, on the other hand, works to relax tension in both mind and body, helping you feel grounded and at ease. Together, they create a kind of “calm energy”, which to us is alert but not anxious, relaxed but not sleepy.

Early research backs this conclusion too: kava’s kavalactones promote relaxation and stress resilience, while matcha’s L-theanine and caffeine improve working memory and focus. For creatives, deep thinkers, or anyone looking to move through their day with clarity and ease, this pairing is the best of both worlds.

At Motherland, we love exploring these kinds of synergies: where tradition meets modern wellness. Matcha and kava remind us that balance isn’t about extremes, but about weaving together what uplifts and what grounds.

2.65 oz. bag: Kava Root Powder | containing approximately 30 servings of traditional kava brew

Serving size: 1.5 tsp
Servings per container: 30

INGREDIENTS: organic ceremonial grade matcha, kava root, organic Jasmine flavor (organic dextrose, natural flavors)

Our kava powder is made with only the lateral roots of the Noble kava variety sourced from Vanuatu, which are known to have the most potent relaxing effects. 

Use a matcha whisk or electric whisk to mix 1.5 tsp of our powder (or more if you want a stronger brew!) into 2oz of room temperature water along with your preferred sweetener. The powdered version of our matcha does not include any honey or sweetener, so add a sweetener of your choice to taste.

For a cold beverage, pour over ice and top up with 4-6oz water or milk. 

For a hot beverage, add 4-6oz hot (but not boiling) water or steamed milk. 

You can pour the drink through a fine mesh strainer if you want it further sifted, but the entire drink can be consumed. (In order to experience the effects of kava, the powder must be consumed.)

*Don’t forget to sip and swirl! The fine kava powder will settle at the bottom of your cup over time, so we recommend to swirl your cup often as you sip to reincorporate the powder.

We also searched extensively for a way to flavor our matcha kava without using anything synthetic or harmful, and we finally found the perfect natural jasmine flavor extract. It is made from simply extracting real, organic jasmine flowers, nothing artificial at all. All of our core products are: gluten free, dairy free, and contain no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners.
