Kava: An Alcohol Alternative Creating Social Buzz Without The Booze

Central Florida resident Anna Martel grew tired of the bar scene in her 30s. She craved authentic relationships and an escape from what she called “the social charade.” She envisioned a space for business professionals like herself to socialize without the noise that comes with alcohol. Kava tea has become a popular option for those seeking booze-free socializing. It’s a drink made from a pepper plant native to the South Pacific Islands known to relieve stress and reduce anxiety. Martel enjoyed the kava experience so much that in 2021 she transitioned from a wedding planner and interior designer to a business entrepreneur and kava bar owner by opening Zenva in Winter Park, Florida. Zenva is an upscale kava bar and contemporary art gallery also serving coffee, kombucha, and specialty mocktails made with kava or z-tea. Amy Sweezey shares her story.
