What is 'Awa?
'Awa is a drink made from the roots and stump of a plant called Piper Methysticum, a relative to black pepper. It has been consumed throughout the South Pacific for over 3,000 years because it is known to promote feelings of calm, well-being, and sociability. It tastes earthy and numbs the tongue slightly.
