INFUSED BEVERAGES AS CANNABIS CONSUMPTION CONTINUES TO EVOLVE, we can expect to see a growing number of drinkable products. Let’s be real – even if we love the act of smoking, inhaling hot vapor or smoke is not ideal for our lungs in the long run. With our brains already wired to go for drinks when holding casual conversations, why not choose a Cannabis infused beverage?
VITONIC
@DRINKVITONIC VITONIC is one of the oldest Cannabis infused drinkable brands in Oregon’s market. Since the medical days, they have been providing tasty goodness to patients, and now bring the same mentality to recreational consumers. Their flavors – Fruit Punch, Mango and Green Apple – are infused with full spectrum CO2 extract. This maintains more of the original input’s cannabinoids, which creates an entourage effect.
DELTA NINE is based out of Bend and has been a staple of Oregon’s delicious edibles market since 2015. Their Cannabis infused beverages come in four flavors: Lemonade, Pink Lemonade, Fruit Punch and Orange. Another speciality that they create are Canna-buddies (infused Muddy Buddies)! If you are wanting to get Delta Nine products onto your shelves, be sure to contact Portland Cannabis Market (PCM).
MAJOR uses a proprietary water soluble emulsion technology created by Sorse, enabling a faster and more effective experience. They come in the flavors Orange Mango, Pink Lemonade, Blue Raspberry, Passion Fruit and Grape. For those with a lower tolerance, no need to worry! There is a guide on the side of the bottle that will help you to keep track of every 5mg that you ingest. If you think 50mg won’t getcha, grab a Major.

DELTA NINE
It’s summertime, and when you are finished with maintaining the yard, you might want to try Delta Nine’s infused lemonade. The lemonade tastes fantastic, and is not too overly sweet or sour. This thirst quenching drink provides a well rounded experience, relaxing the mind and soothing the body thanks to using full spectrum Cannabis extract. @D9BEND
The flavor of fruit punch invokes a sense of nostalgia for me every time – bringing me back to my childhood, rushing to the counter to fill up some Hi-C in my cup. And now you can feel like a kid again, but get stoned while you’re at it. I highly recommend you take a trip down memory lane and dive into Vitonic’s Fruit Punch.

Talk about large things in small packages. As someone with a high tolerance, I was surprised at how quickly and effective these little bottles were. I found myself absolutely blasted in under 20 minutes. I didn’t feel tired, but felt quite the opposite – and after a 10 minute laughing fit, it was very apparent that the drink had hit. @DRINKMAJOR
