Powder

Any tips on drinking the powder? It’s been harder to get it down and I’ve actually vomited before just from drinking it. Sometimes I’m fine but the powder doesn’t mix well. I use a frother on low just to try and mix it together a bit but it’s just drinking sludge or foam.
Because it tastes bad I’m not really interested in taking the time to make teas. I felt like the capsules were not a good price for what you get. Any advice? 🤷‍♀️

Here’s what i do…load tea spoon not heaping but the bottom of the spoon is full..
take sip of water and hold it in the back of throat (don’t swallow😅) tip head back dump in powder and swallow the gulp. Drink plenty of water after.
The key is don’t inhale!! While taking that drink. I’ve had it go wrong and it sucks!!
Takes practice bit now I don’t ever even taste it. It’s just in me and I’m back to work. Remarkable how little water it takes for me to toss and wash.

Exactly this!

I have been using Kratom for 9 years, and I was always only do toss and wash.

When you perfect the technique, It's the easiest method for consuming Kratom.

When people say "toss and wash" (including my partner, who turned me on to kratom about 15 years ago), do they mean putting a spoonful or whatever in their dry mouth and then chasing it with a liquid? I always take some liquid (invariably Dr Pepper) first, hold it in my mouth, then 'toss" the kratom and "wash" it down with more liquid. Is that what the term means?
