As people reexamine their alcohol consumption, THC-based beverages are emerging as an alternative. With a unique buzz, these beverages offer relaxation and a subtle euphoria—minus the hangover. If you live where they’re legally available, here are some options to check out.
Cann
Cann stands out with light, refreshing drinks dosed with THC and CBD. Their range includes compelling flavors like Lemon Lavender (my personal favorite) and Blood Orange Cardamom. THC content: 2 mg
Louie Louie
The Louisiana-based Louie Louie team is bringing the spirit of New Orleans to the burgeoning cannabis beverage market. They currently offer three flavors: Blackberry Lemon, Ginger Cucumber, and Satsuma. (Read our interview to learn more about the founders.) THC content: 5 mg
Brez
A recent entrant to the THC beverage space, Brez has seen immense growth in the past few months. Its beverage is balanced with both CBD and Lion’s Mane mushrooms. Early customers have rave reviews: “just the right combination to create a relaxing experience while not losing any control,” says one. “There’s nothing else like it on the market so I don’t even know what to compare it to,” says another. THC content: 2.5 – 5 mg
Backyard Tea Makers
Backyard just launched a line of THC-infused teas, blending tea’s complex flavors with the relaxing properties of THC. The team doesn’t use tea concentrate. Rather, each of its three flavors—Black & Lemon, Peaches N’ Tea, and Raspberry—is based on four-hour cold steeped Keemun Black Tea. THC content: 5 mg
Artet
Artet has pioneered the realm of THC aperitifs. For them, it’s not just about the THC; it’s about savoring the moment in a manner akin to enjoying a traditional cocktail. This brand offers a sophisticated option for those looking to replace their evening drink with an alternative buzz. THC content: 2.5 – 5 mg
As THC-based beverages continue to grow in popularity, they’re carving out a significant niche in the non-alc space. These products cater to a growing audience that seeks alternatives to alcohol—options that provide relaxation and enjoyment without the downsides of traditional drinks. Brands like Cann, Louie Louie, Brez, Backyard Tea Makers, and Artet are at the forefront of this trend, offering quality choices that signal a promising future for THC beverages.
