Yeah you take the freshly ground kava kava root and mix it with warm water and pour it into this big tortoise shell. Then we'd all get these smaller turtles shells and fill them up out of the tortoise shell and drink. Some really Fijian shit right there haha.
But yeah, I mean it doesn't get you super fucked up or anything. You just feel really laid backed and relaxed. I always liked it a lot.
