Drunk first. Smoked later.
Have you heard of Bhang in India? Or perhaps, Mafeisan in China, Assis (or Esrar) in Russia, or Sabzi in Persia? All of these are cannabis drinks. Historically, cannabis was initially ingested by having the roots, leaves or flowers added to (or steeped in) liquids. These included milk, alcohol, and oil. So while it may feel like it’s a new take on an old toke, cannabis has been drunk all over the world for ages. A quick google image search yields old apothecary bottles of cannabis tinctures sold as cough syrup.
Social alternative to alcohol
People often hesitate to consume alcohol and cannabis products at the same time (called “Cross fading”), due to concerns about intensified effects and unpredictable outcomes. However, it’s hard to walk around at parties without people asking you why you aren’t drinking. To avoid the inevitable “No, I’m not pregnant” conversations with nosy people, nursing a can of your favorite weed drink is a great way to dodge the offers.
Drinks hit different
Trust me buddy: there’s a lot of reasons why weed drinks just hit the spot. When comparing a THC drink vs edibles, drinks take effect faster than the average chocolate or gummy. Drinks, like Cann Beverages, call themselves the “beer without hangovers” for a reason. The drinks are dosed so that you can enjoy one or two before feeling tipsy – just like a beer or cider. That being said, usually you can feel the bubbles in your head within 15 minutes. Ironically (no, really, Alanis), in many cases the secret is in the bubbles.
Bubbles. Not the guy with glasses.
One way to make Cannabis drinks is by creating microscopic droplets – the scientists call it ‘nanoemulsion’. With this technology, cannabinoids (like THC and CBD, but not just those) can bind to water. (Usually, they need fat.) Most mixers, like MOD’s THC lime drops and teas like Velada’s Matcha mixer are made using nanoemulsion technology. In part, it’s because nanoemulsion tends to have next to no flavour nor visual impact on your drinks.
Distillate Drinks
The other way drinks are dosed is through distillate. The concentrated product is directly added to the THC and CBD beverages in Canada. Sweet Justice Sodas, with a long list of tasty flavours – Cranberry Ginger Ale, OG Cola, Cherry Cola – are distillate based. They even have 1:1 THC to CBD balanced drinks, like the Pacific Island Punch and the Elderflower Pom 1:1 beverages.
What’s in your drink?
Something to love about weed drinks is that they come in a variety of options – and we’re not just talking about flavours. There are tons of options with a range of dosages, though THC is capped at 10mg per can.
CBD Beverages in Ontario
Looking for something refreshing that just helps you mellow out, especially after a long day of being on your feet? We’re happy to tell you that CBD drinks don’t have the psychoactive elements of drinks infused with THC. Another good thing to know is that while THC is capped, CBD isn’t. As a result, some CBD drinks, like the Solei Dragonfruit Watermelon CBD Sparkling Beverage contain 25mg of CBD per can.
What about THC Beverages in Ontario?
A huge bonus is that THC drinks in Canada are super discreet. Is it one of the Sense and Purpose beverages? Is it a beer? You can visit Bluffer’s Park or Rouge National Urban Park with a picnic basket, a tweed blanket and sipping on some infused iced tea with no one the wiser.
Meeting halfway: a bit of both
Looking for a trip, not to board a rocket? 1:1 weed drinks in Canada are a great way to get the effects of THC, but with a bit more balance. It’s suspected that enjoying balanced cannabis products can lead to a more comprehensive and balanced impact on your endocannabinoid system. It’s also good to know that together is usually better than being separated for certain effects – as a result, balanced drinks are great options for later at night – like, right before bed.
Why is there always a trace?
The observant consumer will notice that CBD beverages will contain trace amounts of THC (often less than 0.1%) and THC beverages will contain at least a little CBD. One reason is to improve absorption. Studies have shown that including trace amounts of one helps your body process the other. So embrace the full spectrum beauty of cannabis and enhance the entourage effects!
What to do with THC drinks?

Go on an Augmented Reality City Art Walk
Touring a city taking a look at street art is a fresh way to look at your old town with new eyes. The city of Toronto buddied up with Driftscape and created a ton of self guided tours. So grab a fanny pack, put a couple of cans of Phresh to elevate the experience and it’s your pick: do you do the stoner tour of the the Village (it’s the granite exposition) or board the LRT for a self-guided tour that has a little bit for everyone?
How long do the effects last?
When planning your adventure remember to keep in mind how long the effects last. The effects don’t last quite as long as edibles do. That doesn’t mean that you should go for a drive! If you’re driving around town, make sure you have a designated driver and keep them happy with their own drinks and, very importantly, snacks that are reserved for them. This also applies to golf cart drivers.
