Leaf Café is growing our kava offerings. You told us you wanted more, so we set up to beat your expectations!
What Is Kava?
Kava is a plant root native to the South Pacific, traditionally used for its calming, mood-boosting, and muscle-relaxing effects. Known for promoting peace and mental clarity without intoxication, kava has become one of the most popular alcohol alternatives in the wellness world. At Leaf Café in McKinney, TX, we’re proud to offer authentic kava mocktails and beverages that blend flavor, tradition, and relaxation. Kava is growing in popularity across the United States due to its natural properties.
House-Kneaded Kava Mocktails
We've elevated our kava offerings by preparing house-kneaded kava root juice in-house. Our baristas hand-process and knead real kava root to create smooth, authentic mocktails that preserve the root’s natural relaxing properties. Each sip offers a soothing, earthy flavor and a full-body calm that’s perfect for winding down after work or connecting with friends, without alcohol or harsh ingredients.
Instant & Micronized Kava Shots
Need relaxation on the go? Our instant and micronized kava shots deliver all the benefits of kava in a convenient, ready-to-drink form. Whether you’re looking to ease tension, improve focus, or enjoy a calm energy boost, these shots offer fast, effective relief. They’re ideal for anyone seeking balance in a busy lifestyle or an alcohol-free way to relax.
Kava Powders for Home Use
Leaf Café now offers four types of premium kava powders for customers who want to enjoy kava at home. Choose from two traditional options, Chief’s Choice and Waka, for a ceremonial experience, or go for the 1x Instant and 3x Instant options for quick, easy preparation. These high-quality kava products give you the flexibility to craft your perfect drink anywhere, anytime.
