The cannabis industry has come a long way. First, we smoked and ate weed. Then we vaped weed. Then we dabbed weed, and now we’re drinking our weed. What a lucky time to be alive! Cannabis beverages are trending, not only for those exploring the Cali-sober lifestyle but those seeking another way to enjoy the plant they love the most: weed.
Want to sip your way to a buzz without the hangover? Then Tonic cannabis beverages might be for you. Learn all about the brand, including our team’s picks for the top 6 flavors, in our ultimate guide. Keep reading for a new way to elevate and how to get them at Oleans.
Tonic is “powered” by PTS, or Progressive Treatment Solutions, a brand whose mission is to accelerate the acceptance of cannabis. One way to do that is to offer those who are “California-sober” or looking for alcohol alternatives a refreshing cannabis-infused drink to enjoy.
They operate in multiple states, and you can find Tonics on shelves in Illinois and Arizona for when you need an elevated sip on your travels. Tonic is unlike other cannabis beverages due to its liposomal encapsulation formulation.
This unique process makes the THC water-based, allowing the beverage to be fast-acting. So, unlike edibles, you won’t need to wait 45 minutes—1.5 hours for the buzz to kick in. You start sipping, and the body begins absorbing the THC through the bloodstream in your stomach, as opposed to edibles, which are metabolized in your liver.
The process allows for effects to take 15 minutes - 1 hour instead - mimicking the effects of a real cocktail. But, enough with the science lesson…let’s get into what you’re here for.
Without further delay…here are the 6 best Tonic flavors to try first! One tip - be aware of dosage, and consider sharing or splitting your Tonic depending on your unique tolerance. The 12 oz Tonic beverages here all contain 100mg THC per bottle.
The Citrus Lime Tonic cannabis beverage is refreshing in flavor and effects, being a 1:1 THC:CBD variety. That means it has equal CBD to THC, for a well-balanced effect of calming everyday stresses and anxieties and uplifting the mood. This flavor will have you puckering your lips, and coming back for more of its craveworthy taste.
Another 1:1 THC:CBD variety, Tropical Punch offers a sweeter and fruitier taste than the sour Citrus Lime. Enjoy this beverage by itself for a calm balance of CBD and THC effects, or add a splash of orange juice or lemonade to add an extra kick of tartness.
Into more unique flavor combinations? Then the Cucumber Watermelon Tonic cannabis-infused beverage is a refreshingly sweet must-try for you. This Tonic offers the fruity taste of watermelon with hints of crisp and cool cucumber.
It’s not a list of our favorite flavors, without including the Mandarin Orange Tonic. This drink features a bright, zesty mandarin orange flavor that dances on the palate. Its effects are just as light and uplifting, quenching your thirst and delighting your taste buds and mood.
No matter the season, for a taste of summer, you can always turn to the Mango Pineapple Tonic, a cannabis-infused beverage. This tropical cannabis-infused beverage combines the luscious sweetness of ripe mango with the tangy pineapple zip for a flavor explosion in every sip.
For a more unique and sophisticated fruit flavor, look no further than the Tonic cannabis beverage in a Pomegranate Acai flavor. This drink features anti-oxidant rich flavors, blending the tart complexity of pomegranate with the rich, berry notes of acai.
