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. Because they contain small amounts of cannabis, our weed drinks and edibles 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 THC edibles. 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. Pop one of these refreshing gummies after work to ease away stress and transition into a serene evening. 

How do I make a THC-infused espresso martini?

Our THC-infused espresso martini puts a sophisticated spin on the classic cocktail by ditching the vodka for a mellow cannabis kick. This indulgent popular drink captures all the velvety flavors you love from an espresso martini—the bittersweet espresso, sweet caramel, and silky steamed milk—while providing a gentle buzz from the cannabis that helps you relax without the unwanted effects of alcohol. 

With a touch of our microdosed THC mixture, you'll get the full experience of an authentic espresso martini, just topped off with a little extra chill thanks to the cannabis. 

Here’s what you’ll need to make an irresistible espresso martini mocktail:

• ¼ ounce of caramel syrup
• 2 ounces of fresh espresso
• 1 ounce of heavy cream
• Dropper of Buzz drops
• Cocoa powder

Here's how to mix up this mocktail at home:

1. Brew 2 ounces of espresso and let cool slightly.
2. Add the caramel syrup to the hot espresso and stir until fully incorporated and the caramel is dissolved. Allow to cool to room temperature.
3. Once cooled, add the heavy cream and Buzz Drops to the espresso-caramel mixture.
4. Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes. Pour in the espresso mixture.
5. Shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds until well combined.
6. Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass to remove any ice shards.
7. Dust the top lightly with cocoa powder for garnish.
8. Serve and enjoy.

Elevate your espresso martini 

Take your espresso martini cannabis mocktail to new heights by experimenting with flavors and ingredients to create your perfect version. You can elevate this cocktail by trying different additions and tweaks.

Here are some suggestions on how to enhance your espresso martini mocktail:

• Select high-quality, freshly roasted coffee beans for a richer and more aromatic flavor profile. Experiment with different varieties to find a unique and bold taste.
• Use a high-quality, homemade cold brew coffee concentrate for a smoother and less acidic coffee base. It provides a more intense and complex coffee flavor.
• Garnish the drink with a few espresso beans to offer a visual and aromatic element. Opt for unique or flavored beans for an extra touch.
• Try adding a small, thin lemon twist over the drink's surface to impart a subtle citrus aroma that beautifully complements the coffee's richness.
• Experiment with creative garnishes like a touch of cinnamon powder on top or a citrus zest twist for added aroma and visual appeal.
• Try variations with different types of milk, such as oat milk or almond milk, to create a creamy texture while introducing a subtle nutty or earthy note.
• Instead of plain caramel syrup, consider infusing it with a hint of vanilla or vanilla syrup, a touch of maple syrup, cinnamon syrup, chocolate syrup, or simple syrup for a nuanced sweetness.
• Opt for stylish or unique glassware to serve the cocktail, elevating its presentation and appeal. We like the signature espresso martini glass, but don’t let that stop you. A traditional cocktail glass will get the job done. 

Explore these—and more—adjustments and you can tailor the espresso martini mocktail to match your preferences and elevate its flavors, presentation, and overall drinking experience.

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

Why are THC drinks better than alcohol?

THC drinks are changing the social drinking game—for the best. Unlike alcohol, cannabis provides an uplifting, feel-good buzz that sharpens your senses instead of muddling them. In microdoses, THC relaxes your body, brightens your mood, and enhances sensations while still allowing you to think clearly and move freely. 

Plus, you'll wake up the next morning feeling refreshed and ready to seize the day—no nauseating hangovers or pounding headaches. 

Here’s why THC-infused beverages are a much better choice than booze: 

• Cannabis gets you lifted without the letdown. With carefully infused low doses of THC in our Buzz drops, you get a pleasant high that enhances your mood in a gentle, controlled way. 
• With THC drinks you can chill out, not blackout. Relax and enjoy the moment and never worry about losing control over yourself. 
• Just say no to intoxication. Microdosing cannabis gives you a gentle high that enhances experiences while overdoing it on alcohol can ruin them. 
• Cannabis boosts your wellness, ditching the illness. Can you say the same about booze? 
• The microdose buzz improves your state of mind without impairing cognition or motor skills. You stay mentally sharp and physically coordinated.

We could go on and on about the reasons why you should ditch booze and welcome the most refreshing THC-infused drinks. Did you know microdosing cannabis may alleviate alcohol withdrawal symptoms?

How long will a THC drink 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 the gummies, though, so the effects of THC drinks typically have a tad shorter duration of effects. But they will last anywhere between two and six hours.

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

Where can I buy THC mixers?
