This drink is clearly a cannabis twist on the vodka soda. Each can comes in a 355-mL format, and contains 2 mg of THC.

Tweed Houndstooth & Sodaįor my first tasting, I cracked open a can of Tweed’s Houndstooth & Soda to spice up a Zoom group party. As with any cannabis product, always start low and go slow to figure out what dosage works for you. This offers you an accurate measuring stick to test your dosage tolerance (think of it as alcohol percentages, but in cannabis terms). Cannabis products from licensed producers are required by law to have their cannabinoid levels tested, analyzed and labelled on the package. I ordered one of each variety to try during isolation: Tweed Houndstooth & Soda (a 2 mg sativa-dominant THC beverage), The Green Organic Dutchman’s Infusers Dissolvable THC Powder (10 mg indica-dominant THC drink crystals), and Basecamp’s CBD Iced Tea (15 mg CBD with trace amounts of THC).Īnd remember: always buy cannabis products from licensed producers through legal provincial sites and retailers. (There are also hybrids/blends, which are a combination of both plants.) Indica strains tend to decrease your energy and promote relaxation or sleep and are best for use in the evenings or at night. Sativa strains are known for their uplifting effects, and can increase productivity, so they’re recommended for daytime use. Sativa- and indica-dominance refers to the type of cannabis plant used in the beverage, and the consumption of each can influence your physiological effects and energy levels differently. THC provides the impairing “high” associated with cannabis consumption, while its sister compound, cannabidiol (CBD), is non-intoxicating and believed to help with relaxation and stress relief, and potentially acts as an anti-inflammatory. Tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly referred to as THC, is one of the two most abundant chemical compounds found in cannabis plants. (I no longer have to wait up to four hours, and worry about potentially being high for 12 hours? Yes, please!)Ī quick browse on the Ontario Cannabis Store website showed limited available brands, but there was at least one drink each that contained sativa-dominant THC, indica-dominant THC and CBD. One of the appealing features of cannabis drinks for me is that their formulation mimics the effects of alcohol-including rapid onset time and duration of effects. Lift & Co., a Canadian cannabis resource site, says that edibles can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours to kick in, and last for up to 12 hours. I was excited to try weed beverages because they’d offer me an alternative. In social situations where alcohol is present, I’m the person drinking mocktails, or at the very least, eating an edible cannabis cookie. I rarely drink alcohol, but I am a casual cannabis user. I’ve waited a long time to try them, and now was finally my chance. But as of late April, cannabis beverages started appearing on provincial cannabis sites across Canada. Between the extensive government approval process and product formulation delays, legalization 2.0 hasn’t been without its challenges. Edible cannabis products were legalized in October 2019, but it’s been a long road to bring them to market.
