Are Cannabis Beverages the Next Big Thing?

Why Are Cannabis Beverages Trending in 2025?

Weed drinks aren’t new — but in 2025, they’re finally hitting their stride. With better flavour, faster onset, and consistent dosing, THC beverages are quickly becoming the go-to option for people who want a smoke-free high.

But is this just another cannabis fad, or are we looking at the next big wave?

Let’s dive in.

What Are Cannabis Beverages?

Cannabis beverages (also called THC drinks or weed drinks) are drinkable products infused with cannabis extracts — typically THC, CBD, or a blend of both.

They come in all forms:

• Sparkling sodas

• Teas and tonics

• Flavoured waters

• Mocktails

• Energy drinks

• Low-dose shots

Each one is formulated with an exact amount of cannabinoids per serving — making them perfect for consistent, smoke-free use.

How Do Cannabis Beverages Work?

THC drinks are made using nanoemulsified cannabis extracts, which means the THC is broken down into super tiny particles. This allows your body to absorb the cannabinoids faster and more efficiently.

• Onset time: 10–20 minutes (vs. 30–90 minutes for edibles)

• Duration: 2–4 hours

• Absorption: Through digestive + sublingual (mouth) tissues

It’s a smooth, balanced high — no smoke, no mess, no smell.

Are THC Drinks Strong?

They can be — but most are designed for controlled, predictable effects. You’ll usually find:

• 2.5mg – 5mg: perfect for beginners or social settings

• 10mg – 15mg: standard recreational dose

• 20mg – 30mg+: strong, fast-acting effects for experienced users

Some even come in multi-serve bottles where you control the dose with each sip or pour.
