hangout without the hangover.
THC infused seltzer is showing up on store shelves and bar menus—at book clubs, beach days, and game nights. Why are people so high on this alcohol alternative?
Well, it’s delightfully light and refreshing, similar to a hard seltzer. But because it’s cannabis or hemp-based THC delivering the buzz, your experience will be a bit different—and come with some big pluses. Infused seltzer won’t give you a hangover, like alcohol will, and it keeps your lungs happy and healthy, unlike smoking weed.
It’s all about how the THC travels to your bloodstream—and the control that gives you over your high.
Eat an edible, and you won't feel anything until you fully digest it. That takes 45 minutes to an hour for lots of people.
THC infused seltzer is different.
Because the THC is so small in beverages– much smaller than in an edible–your body absorbs it through your stomach lining, so you start feeling the magic in just five to ten minutes.
This is a really big deal. You're far less likely to overconsume when you feel the effects of THC right away, and that helps you avoid a bad trip. So, finish your can and you'll already know if you’ve reached peak chill—or if you want another.
Well, THC is psychoactive, and CBD isn’t—giving you a very different feeling.
If you drink a THC infused seltzer, you’ll enjoy a buzz that alters how you experience the world. You won’t feel that same effect drinking a CBD seltzer.
Some folks find that a seltzer infused with both THC and CBD is the best of both worlds. But this varies from person to person, so find what is right for you!
Great! As you explore the bold new world of infused seltzers, keep these five things in mind:
If you’re a heavy cannabis user, try drinks with higher doses of THC. Otherwise, you might not feel as much as you are used to, and you’ll walk away disappointed. On the flip side, if you’re new to cannabis– cannacurious, as we say– consider steer steering clear of high-dose drinks. Starting with Cantrip’s 5 MG THC seltzers is a great intro to the world of cannabis drinks.
Before you try any cannabis or hemp-based product, make sure it’s been third-party tested– and look at the results. Some brands aren’t delivering on their marketing promises, and this will ensure you get what you pay for.
In our case, we send each batch of Cantrip to a lab for testing before it can be sold, and we print QR codes on our cans so checking those results is easy as pie.
If a brand isn’t publishing its results, walk away– fast.
There are lots of different THC drinks out there– and some are made with higher-quality ingredients than others.
So, find options that use as many natural ingredients as possible– and pay close attention to the calorie count and sugar content.
Some drink makers, like us, create flavor profiles that work with the cannabis. Others mask the taste with loads of sugar. If sugar’s your thing, go for it– but if you’re trying to be mindful of your intake, check closely.
Checking out what’s working for people– and what’s not– can be really insightful. You’ll also discover which flavors are winners and those that haven't quite hit the mark.
Light and cheery, our Cantrip infused seltzers come in 3 MG THC + 2 MG CBD and 5 MG THC doses. Even better, you can order a variety pack to discover the dose and flavor that’s just right for you
