Modern drink engineers have crafted more than just THC beers for our drinking pleasure. They have made seltzers, fruit drinks, teas, and more. Drinking cannabis products is much like eating an edible: the drink travels to the stomach and intestines. After that, it moves to the liver where the real fun begins. Since the drinks aren’t solid like edibles, you feel the effect much more quickly, which is excellent news for patients that like edibles but want faster relief. Choosing the Best Cannabis Seltzer One of the coolest things about modern cannabis use is we aren’t restricted to using only THC. Some seltzers have CBD and THC products, like Oh Hi. Their THC seltzers come in several different flavors: pomegranate, grapefruit, lemonlime, and ginger-basil limeade. Most of the options contain 10 mg THC; the only one that is 5 mg is the ginger basil limeade. The CBD seltzers come in the same flavors. Of course, this isn’t your only option for THC or CBD seltzers. Creative Waters Company lets you choose a ratio for THC-CBD. “Since the drinks aren’t solid like edibles, you feel the effect much more quickly, which is excellent news for patients that like edibles but want faster relief.” Let’s explore the new beverages on the market and discover if they’re worth trying!
