What is a THC drink?

THC drinks, also called weed drinks or cannabis-infused beverages, contain small amounts of Delta 9 THC and cannabidiol (CBD). They are convenient, fun, and delicious. There’s nothing easier—and tastier—than mixing up a good old craft mocktail. 

Low-dose THC drinks are much safer and healthier than alcohol. They’re great for sipping at a party or after a long day at work. Our weed drinks and edibles contain small amounts of THC and therefore don’t have the overwhelming side effects that come with taking too much. 

Another great way to indulge in the benefits of cannabis with none of the drawbacks of an intense “high” is with our gummies. If you’re new to microdosing, try our Relax Plus gummies. Each gummy contains 25 mg of CBD coupled with just 5 mg of THC for a mildly euphoric buzz. 

I use it to calm down my ADHD. I'm more able to focus on tasks. I use half a gummy every day.

How do I make a spicy avocado THC mocktail?

Prepare yourself for the ultimate healthy hedonism in a glass. Our decadent spicy avocado cannabis mocktail combines the nutty richness of avocado with zesty lemon and jalapeño spice. No alcohol is allowed here, but we do approve of the gentle euphoria that small amounts of THC can provide. 

Our liquid Buzz drops offer a mellow buzz without any of the sluggishness or nasty after-effects of booze. Clocking in at just 200 calories per serving, enjoy the simplicity and richness of this delicious drink without worrying about your waistline. 

The process is easy and the prep time is conveniently quick. Toss all of your ingredients in a blender, blend until frothy, and pour it into your finest glassware. If you dare, top your drink with an extra slice of jalapeño.

You may have tried spicy cocktails, but you’ve never had a healthy, guilt-free “green” cocktail infused with cannabis like this. 

Here’s what you’ll need to make an irresistible spicy avocado buzztail:

• 1 small avocado, cubed
• ¾ ounces of jalapeño syrup
• ¾ ounces of lemon juice
• ½ ounce of heavy cream
• 1 dropper of liquid Buzz drops (2.2 mg of THC)
• Ice
• Lemon peel or jalapeño for garnish.

Follow these instructions and mix up this mocktail at home:

1. Mash your fresh, ripe avocado with jalapeño syrup until creamy. (Feel free to use a blender or food processor for this.)
2. Add lemon juice and heavy cream. This will give it a rich, milkshake-like texture.
3. Add our Buzz drops (one full dropper is enough to get the party started).
4. Incorporate your mixture with ice or shake it in a cocktail shaker. 
5. Double strain into the glass. (We chose a martini glass, but your mocktail, your choice.)
6. Garnish with lemon peel or a slice of jalapeño.

Tips for extra enjoyment

We’ve got a few tricks up our sleeves that will turn this easy homemade beverage into a true show-stopper. The recipe for our spicy avocado THC mocktail isn’t set in stone. Feel free to adjust the amounts or experiment with other ingredients to match your personal tastes and preferences.

When it comes to infusing the mocktail with THC, make sure you stick to lower amounts out of the gate, especially if you are less experienced with THC products. Low doses of THC are safe and therapeutic, while higher amounts can lead to psychoactive effects and other negative side effects. 

Here are a few ways you could enrich this amazing recipe for our cannabis-laced spicy avocado drink:

1. We used jalapeño to spice up this mocktail, but feel free to crank up the heat to your preference. Habanero, serrano, or chili peppers could do the trick. Spices such as cayenne, smoked paprika, and even dashes of hot sauce turn up the salsa flavor. 
2. Our avocado base is the star of this mocktail, but don’t let that stop you from adding other types of nuttiness. Sub in creamy almond or peanut butter for half of the allotted avocado base. Use a chocolate hazelnut spread or a spoonful of cocoa powder for a rich Nutella twist.
3. Muddle in herbs such as fresh mint, basil, cilantro, or fragrant lavender. Their flavors beautifully complement the cool, creamy avocado. 
4. Balance the herbs with any number of citrus flavors: fresh lime juice, pomegranate, grapefruit, or blood orange juice can give your mocktail an extra zesty kick.
5. For those who suffer from a sweet tooth, we condone turning this creamy drink into a sugary wonderland. Drizzle in maple syrup, agave, raw honey, or even plain simple syrup for layered sweetness. A dash of granulated sugar doesn’t hurt anybody. (Keep in mind that an extra layer of sweetness increases the caloric value of the mocktail.)
6. Go nuts with garnishes. Add cocoa nibs, crushed pistachios, dehydrated citrus, or coconut flakes for some ornamental crunch.
7. Use an immersion blender for fast prep and simpler cleanup. Or go classic by dry shaking ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice before straining the mix over ice into your finest glassware.

Don’t forget to sip slowly and savor every gulp. 

One of our best classic cocktails is the phenomenal Bloody Mary infused with small amounts of THC and CBD. If you’re in need of something refreshing and juicy, perhaps our booze-free Paloma THC mocktail can satisfy your palate.

Why should I drink cannabis?

Through the process of nano-emulsification, we've created a water-friendly cannabis extract that blends perfectly into your fave juices, lemonades, and teas. Our Buzz drops deliver the legendary health benefits of the cannabis plant in an easy, discreet form.

So here’s why you should start microdosing cannabis with our THC drinks:

• Microdosing Delta 9 THC can help alleviate chronic pain, including migraines, neuropathic pain, arthritic pain, and cancer pain. 
• Low-dose cannabis can relieve anxiety, suggesting that “CBD may hold promise for REM sleep behavior disorder and excessive daytime sleepiness.” 
• Microdosing cannabis can help glaucoma patients by lowering intraocular pressure. A recent study indicates that low doses of THC help lower intraocular pressure, which causes glaucoma, chronic pain, and associated discomfort.
• Low doses of THC and CBD may boost productivity. Small amounts of THC (between 2 and 10 milligrams per serving) may provide just enough dopamine stimulation to increase your mental energy and motivation. 
• Similarly, microdosing cannabis is a great way to enhance focus whenever you need an extra boost of concentration. 
• At low doses, Delta 9 THC can help you sleep better. A review of cannabis found that both CBD and THC may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of insomnia.
• The combination of THC and CBD is a good move for your health. When you combine cannabidiol and THC, their synergy produces the entourage effect, allowing cannabis compounds to work together to enhance each other’s effects. 

Our THC Buzz Drops are a great example of a full-spectrum CBD product where all components work synergistically to amplify the overall effects. Experience the advantages of combining balanced euphoria effects from THC with the pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties of CBD. 

This is a great substitute for alcohol. I will be ordering regularly.

How long will a cannabis beverage keep me buzzed?

The cannabis compounds from our liquid cannabis drops get absorbed into the bloodstream fairly quickly after finishing your drink. They’re not fully digested like our THC gummies, so the effect duration of THC drinks is typically a tad shorter. On average, they will last anywhere between two and six hours.

This means only one delicious canna-infused drink will keep you uplifted and pleasantly buzzed for hours.

The effects of THC beverages and their duration can depend on a few factors, including:

• THC concentration in the drink 
• Serving size 
• Your stomach's contents
• Your metabolism 
• Your cannabis tolerance

Do the effects of a weed drink take long to kick in?

One thing we LOVE about our THC drinks is that they have a much faster onset of effects compared to edibles. Drinkable cannabis is not ingested in the same way that gummies are. It enters the bloodstream directly through the soft tissues in the mouth and throat, which is what causes the quicker onset of effects. 

The effects of a THC beverage will kick in within 10–20 minutes of sipping. Perfect for those who are looking to enjoy those fast-acting feel-good vibes.
