Featured: Kratom Gorilla Howler 150mg kratom shot, a leaf-extract shot from Bedrock’s own Kratom Gorilla line.

Quick answer: Kratom shots are small bottles of liquid kratom leaf extract, usually 10–60 mL, often flavored, and sold as a single ready-to-drink unit. The label gives the alkaloid content, most often as total milligrams of mitragynine (MIT) per bottle. To compare shots, look at bottle size, MIT milligrams, price, and whether a batch COA is published.

What exactly is in a kratom shot?

A kratom shot starts as dried Mitragyna speciosa leaf, a tree in the coffee family (Rubiaceae) native to Southeast Asia. The leaf is extracted to concentrate its alkaloids, then blended into a liquid base with water, flavoring and sometimes sweetener. Mitragynine is the main alkaloid in kratom leaf, so it is the number most brands print on the front of the bottle.

A typical shot label shows:

• Net volume (for example, 15 mL or 2 fl oz)
• Alkaloid content (for example, “150mg MIT” per bottle)
• Flavor and ingredient list
• Batch or lot number, which links the bottle to its lab report
• 21+ warning and FDA disclaimer

How are kratom shots different from powder, capsules and seltzers?

All four formats start from the same leaf. The differences are processing, packaging, how the label is stated, and price per unit.

Format	What it is	How the label is stated	Example at Bedrock
Powder	Dried, ground leaf	Net weight in grams	Kratom powders
Capsules	Ground leaf in pre-filled capsules	Capsule count and grams per capsule	Kratom Gorilla Jumbos
Shot	Concentrated leaf extract in a small bottle	mL per bottle and mg MIT per bottle	Kratom Gorilla Howler
Seltzer	Leaf extract in a carbonated can	Fl oz per can and mg MIT per can	Noms kratom seltzers

Shots come in the smallest package of the four, so they cost the most per mg of alkaloid. What you pay for is a measured, pre-portioned liquid that needs no preparation. Powder costs the least per gram and is the most work to prepare.

How do you read the mg number on a kratom shot label?

On most shot labels the milligram figure is the total mitragynine in the whole bottle. It is not a per-sip figure and not a recommendation. A “150mg” Kratom Gorilla or Third Eye shot states 150 mg of MIT across the full bottle.

Two checks make that number trustworthy:

1. Match the lot number to a COA. A certificate of analysis from a third-party lab should list MIT and any other alkaloids measured, plus contaminant panels. Our guide on how to read a kratom COA walks through each section.
2. Compare like with like. Some brands print MIT per bottle and others print extract milligrams, which is a different measurement. Our explainer on MIT percentage in kratom covers the difference.

Bedrock does not advise on how much of any product to use. Follow the product label, and ask a qualified medical professional about anything to do with personal use.

How do kratom shot brands compare on size and price?

Here is how the shots Bedrock carries compare, using listed prices and label specs as of October 2026:

Shot	Label spec	Bedrock price	Notes
Kratom Gorilla Howler	150 mg	$17.99	Owned brand. Also in Silver Back and Orangutang
Third Eye Strawberry Mango Pineapple	150 mg	$17.99	Owned brand, fruit flavors
Hush Ultra (Lime, Coffee)	Shot	$16.49	Carried brand
K-Tropix Shot	15 mL	$19.99	Carried brand. Also sold in NANO 10 mL versions
Tru Moods Red Nano	120 mg MIT, 2 oz	$12.99	Carried brand, larger bottle

The comparison shows the trade-off. Tru Moods comes in a larger 2 oz bottle at a lower price but lists less MIT. Kratom Gorilla and Third Eye list 150 mg in a smaller, flavored shot. Price per mg of MIT is the fairest way to compare: $17.99 ÷ 150 mg is about 12¢ per mg, and $12.99 ÷ 120 mg is about 11¢ per mg.

What does “nano” mean on a kratom shot?

“Nano” is a processing and marketing term. It means the brand has reduced the particle size of the extract or emulsified it so it mixes evenly into the liquid. It describes how the liquid is made, not what is in it. Read the alkaloid content on the label and COA the same way you would for any other shot.

Are kratom shots legal?

Kratom leaf is not federally scheduled in the U.S., but states set their own rules. In July 2026 the DEA announced it would temporarily place 7-OH and three related substances in Schedule I. Bedrock sells leaf-only kratom and does not ship to states where kratom is restricted. See our kratom legality by state tracker, and verify your current local law before ordering.

How should you store kratom shots?

Store shots capped and upright in a cool, dark spot, away from heat and direct sunlight. Before you buy, check that the seal is intact and that the bottle shows a batch number and expiration date. For other liquid formats, see what kava shots are and how kratom and kava compare.

Kratom shots FAQ

What is a kratom shot?

A kratom shot is a small, single-bottle liquid made from a kratom leaf extract, usually flavored and sold in a 10–60 mL bottle. The label lists the alkaloid content, most often as milligrams of mitragynine (MIT) per bottle.

Are kratom shots the same as kratom extracts?

Kratom shots are one kind of extract product. “Extract” describes how the leaf is processed. “Shot” describes the format: a ready-to-drink liquid in a small bottle. Bedrock lists both under its Kratom Extracts and Kratom Shots categories.

What does 150mg mean on a kratom shot?

On most labels the milligram figure is the total mitragynine content in the whole bottle. It is not a serving recommendation. Check the brand’s certificate of analysis (COA) to confirm that number for your batch.

Do kratom shots contain 7-OH?

Bedrock sells kratom leaf products only. The DEA moved in 2026 to temporarily place 7-OH (7-hydroxymitragynine) in Schedule I, so look for leaf-only products and read the COA’s alkaloid panel before you buy.

How should I store kratom shots?

Keep them capped, upright, and out of heat and direct sunlight. Check the batch number and expiration date on the bottle, and don’t buy a shot with a broken seal.
