Taco Tuesday is always a great time at Kava Kula. I mean what other place can you get your tea and kava and be appreciated so much as a customer you get free tacos. The Kava tenders are great at their jobs, knowledgeable, and have engaging personalities that make you want to hang out and spend time here. The Kratom Mojito and newest menu item, the Kava Extract Shortcake Shot were fantastic, in addition to the Kratom Bomb (Blue Raspberry flavor if you want a recommendation on the best flavor bomb)
