The Best THC and CBD Drinks for Sale in 2024

This summer, more and more of our customers are discovering and falling in love with cannabis beverages. If you haven’t tried sipping on a cannabis cocktail yet, it’s time to get on board because they are here to stay. Whether you’re Cali sober, looking to cut back on your alcohol consumption, or simply wanting to enjoy both alcohol and cannabis at once, we have a THC and CBD drink for you at our Santa Cruz dispensary.

Cannabis beverages have quickly become a popular way for cannabis enthusiasts to enjoy their favorite strains in a refreshing and discreet format. From THC-infused drinks that offer a psychoactive experience to CBD beverages known for their calming effects, there’s something for everyone. At KindPeoples Santa Cruz dispensaries we are leading the way in providing a wide variety of THC drinks and cannabis beverages that cater to different tastes and preferences.

What Are THC Drinks and Cannabis Beverages?

THC drinks are cannabis-infused beverages that provide the effects of THC in a liquid form, making them a great alternative to traditional methods like smoking or vaping. These drinks come in various flavors and potency levels, allowing users to choose based on their desired experience. Cannabis beverages also include CBD-infused options, which are perfect for those looking for relaxation without the psychoactive effects.

The effects of cannabis-infused drinks tend to be felt in as little as 15-20 minutes. While this may not seem as fast as the instant effects of weed pens or prerolls, it’s quite prompt compared to traditional edibles like Wyld gummies or Camino gummies, which take on average 45 minutes to 2 hours to take effect. This speediness is thanks to the nano-molecular technology used during the manufacturing process, which has been integral to the rise of cannabis drinks.

You might be wondering, what is nano-molecular technology? It’s a process that breaks down cannabinoid oils into tiny particles. As the cannabinoids become smaller, they can mix more readily with liquids, allowing them to be absorbed by the mouth and stomach faster than a typical edible.

In Santa Cruz, KindPeoples dispensary offers one of the best selections of THC drinks, ranging from fruity seltzers to herbal teas, each designed to provide a unique cannabis experience. So, what are our California dispensary employees sipping lately? Our KindPeoples staff can’t get enough of Almora Lemonades, Cann Social Tonics, and Uncle Arnie’s Shots, some of the best THC and CBD drinks of 2024.


Almora Lemonade – Live Resin Beverage

Almora’s lemonades are infused with live resin sourced from their sustainable, sun-grown California cannabis. Made with real lemon juice, these THC drinks are perfectly tart and come in three delicious flavors: classic lemonade, strawberry lemonade, and iced tea lemonade. These live resin beverages are like summer in a bottle; perfect for your next beach day, pool party, or simply for enjoying after a long, hot day.

Almora’s team harvests their sun-grown cannabis only once it has reached peak freshness. The flowers are then immediately frozen whole after being cut from the root system. The extraction process is conducted while the plants are still frozen, preserving the source plant’s cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. This ensures a pure and potent live resin extract. All this leads to a delicious, high-potency cannabis-infused drink with no artificial flavors or sweeteners.

The classic lemonade flavor is a favorite THC drink among staff and customers alike at both of our local dispensaries, KindPeoples Soquel Avenue and Ocean Street.

Cann Social THC & CBD Tonic

Cann is on a mission to change the way we drink. Their goal is to help consumers say goodbye to hangovers without sacrificing social drinking. Cann has reimagined the classic six-pack with their low-dose social tonics, containing 2 mg of THC and 4 mg of CBD, so you can build your buzz gradually and keep a drink in hand all night long.

Cann comes in a variety of delicious flavors like lemon-lavender, blood orange-cardamom, and grapefruit-rosemary, as well as limited-edition seasonal drops. Each Cann drink contains just five simple ingredients: sparkling water, fresh juice, all-natural herbal flavor, 100% organic agave, and a microdose of THC and CBD distillate.

If you’ve never micro-dosed before, the intention is to bring on a light buzz, similar to a glass of wine or a beer. Of course, everyone’s body processes THC differently. One consumer may only need one Cann to carry them through a whole party, while another might finish the entire six-pack. If you’re nervous, we suggest starting with one, waiting about 20 minutes, and then drink more as needed. Likewise, if 2 mg isn’t a strong enough dose for you, don’t worry—Cann Hi-Boys are also available, which contain a larger dose of 5 mg of THC per drink.

Shop Cann at KindPeoples Soquel Avenue and Ocean Street.

Uncle Arnie’s Cannabis Infused Shots

Three flavors of Uncle Arnie's shots: strawberry kiwi, blueberry nightcap, and sunrise orange, displayed against a vibrant background

Uncle Arnie’s shots may be tiny, but you can’t judge a cannabis drink by its size. These 2-ounce drinks pack a strong punch. Available in three different formulas, there’s an Uncle Arnie’s shot for every occasion. Try the strawberry-kiwi shot, with 100 mg of THC for everyday use, or opt for the sleep or energizing options for a more targeted experience.

Refreshing and potent, our staff loves to unwind before bed with the Blueberry Nightcap. This shot contains 100 mg of THC and an additional 5 mg of CBN, known as the sleep cannabinoid. These shots are ideal for the high-dose consumer looking for extra bedtime support and are sure to induce a delicious drowsy haze.

After a great night’s sleep, kickstart your morning with the Sunrise Orange Shot. The 100 mg of THC is complemented with 150 mg of caffeine, so you can ditch your morning coffee and opt for this instead!

Uncle Arnie’s shots are certainly some of the best THC drinks available in any California dispensary. Shop Uncle Arnie’s at KindPeoples Soquel Avenue and KindPeoples Ocean Street.
