About No Worries

A warm, grounding cup for the end of a long day.

Three botanicals built around comfort. Kava root has been shared for centuries in Pacific Island tradition, sipped slowly as a ceremonial drink for calm, unhurried gatherings. Holy basil and oatstraw are herbs long enjoyed in Ayurvedic and European traditions, woven in here for their soft, earthy sweetness. Cinnamon, orange peel, and warming spices round the cup out. The result is a warm, settling ritual for the moment you shift out of a busy day.

Made for winding down.

Caffeine-free and gently spiced, this is a cup for the transition hours. Oatstraw and wood betony have long, quiet histories in European herbalism as companions for a busy mind, and kava has been part of Pacific Island ritual for generations, traditionally enjoyed to promote a sense of calm while staying clear-headed. Pour it when you need to slow down but still have dinner to make and people to show up for.

How to enjoy it.

Steep 1.5 teaspoons in 8 ounces of full-boil water for 7 minutes. Drink hot. Use it to mark the shift between work and home, or as the cup that quiets the open tabs in your mind on a high-stress afternoon. Best in the late afternoon or early evening. Blended in our Salem, Oregon kitchen.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Warm and spicy. Cinnamon and orange peel up front, with a sweet, earthy undertone from the holy basil and oatstraw.

Flavor: Grounding and warming. The cinnamon leads, followed by the citrus brightness of the orange peel. The holy basil adds a soft, herbaceous sweetness. The kava root sits underneath, earthy and slightly numbing.

Finish: Smooth, with a pleasant tingling sensation on the tongue from the kavalactones in the kava. The warming spices linger.

Why You'll Love It

Kava root: Piper methysticum has been the ceremonial drink of Pacific Island cultures for over 3,000 years, shared in Fiji, Vanuatu, Samoa, and Tonga as a social beverage enjoyed for calm, unhurried gatherings. Traditionally it is sipped slowly to promote a sense of ease while staying clear-headed. The root leaves a mild, pleasant tingle on the tongue, the signature of the natural kavalactones that give kava its character.

Holy basil and oatstraw: Holy basil (Tulsi) is one of the most revered herbs in Ayurvedic tradition, long enjoyed as part of a daily grounding ritual. Oatstraw has been a folk favorite in European herbalism since at least the 17th century, traditionally enjoyed as a soothing, comforting cup. Both are woven in for their soft, earthy sweetness and their long place in the herbal traditions.

Wood betony: Medieval European herbals mention wood betony as a grounding companion for a busy or restless mind. It carries a long tradition as a settling herb, enjoyed when thoughts will not slow down.

*FDA Warning: Ask a healthcare professional before use if you have had liver problems, frequently use alcoholic beverages, or are taking any medication. Kava-containing dietary supplements have been associated with liver-related injuries.

Craft Your Cup

A few notes from our teamakers.

The Commuter's Cup
Brew 1.5 teaspoons in 8 ounces of full-boil water for 7 minutes as soon as you finish your last work task. Sip it hot while you close the laptop, change out of work clothes, or walk around the block. The ritual marks the transition between work and home. The kava drops the shoulders. The warming spices ground you back into your body.

The Sunday Scaries Cup
Brew double-strength (2 teaspoons, 8 minutes) on Sunday evening when the dread of Monday starts creeping in. Drink it while you prep for the week or sit with a book. The holy basil and oatstraw take the edge off the Sunday-night dread. The kava quiets the mental rehearsal of tomorrow's meetings.

No Worries with Honey and Milk
Brew 1.5 teaspoons for 7 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon of honey while the tea is still hot. Add a splash of oat milk or whole milk. The fat rounds the warming spices into something almost dessert-like. The honey bridges the cinnamon and orange. Drinks like a hug in a cup.

Your Questions About No Worries, Answered.

Does this make you sleepy?

Most people find kava relaxing without feeling drowsy, which is why Pacific Island cultures enjoy it during clear-headed social gatherings. This is a warm, settling cup rather than a knockout. That said, kava affects everyone differently, so try it at home first before drinking it during work hours or before driving.

Is kava safe?

Kava has been part of Pacific Island culture for over 3,000 years. Even so, the FDA requires a warning: kava-containing dietary supplements have been associated with liver-related injuries in rare cases. Do not use if you have liver problems, frequently use alcoholic beverages, or are taking medication. Consult a healthcare professional before use if you have any concerns.

Can I drink this every day?

Most herbalists suggest enjoying kava now and then rather than every day, as a cup for higher-stress stretches rather than a daily baseline. The other herbs in the blend (holy basil, oatstraw, and wood betony) are gentle enough for everyday enjoyment. If you are after a daily calming cup, a chamomile or tulsi blend is a lovely choice.
