Have you heard the buzz on THC seltzers? They’re the new going-out, staying-in, having-fun, and chilling-out beverage. These drinks are steadily replacing alcohol in people’s fridges and coolers as folks move away from the harmful effects of alcoholic beverages. From California to Florida, people are saying “good riddance” to alcohol and “hello” to THC seltzers.

These yummy beverages offer a delightfully relaxing sensation without any of the nasty stuff you get from alcohol. Discover why THC seltzers are the hottest drink on the scene right now and why they’re not going anywhere anytime soon.

What Are THC Seltzers?

THC seltzers are hemp-infused sparkling beverages containing THC and CBD. They have a carbonated texture for a delightful fizzy feel and pair the psychoactive properties of THC with the calming effects of CBD and CBG. People often choose these cannabis mocktails over alcohol for a fun time without the harmful effects.

Are They Legal?

THC seltzers are legal in many U.S. states, but not all. The ratio of CBD to THC matters, as states have their own laws concerning the sale and consumption of cannabis-derived products. Hemp-derived THC and CBD rather than Marijuana-derived compounds are typically easier to find.

Thanks to the Hemp Farming Act of 2018, products with hemp-derived THC and CBD are federally legal. They’re just not legal in every state.

How Are They Made?

THC seltzers are made using an inventive process called emulsification. Humans have used emulsification for centuries, but emulsifying cannabis materials is relatively new.

Using liquid carbon dioxide, heat, and pressure, they take raw cannabis materials and emulsify them into small particles, which contain THC, CBD, CBG, and other cannabinoids. Following the emulsification, these cannabis materials are now water-soluble, meaning they can be mixed into a liquid.

THC seltzer brands mix the cannabis extracts into carbonated water, add flavoring, and whatever else they want to put, like vitamins and minerals. And voila! You have a bubbly THC drink.

How Do They Make You Feel?

How a cannabis beverage makes you feel will depend on the brand and can you choose. Some have higher concentrations of THC, and some have more CBD than THC. In general, THC seltzers offer a light, buzzy feeling that makes people happy.

People who try Find Wunder seltzers say they can feel their shoulders relax and body loosen up just moments after taking the first sip. They feel floaty and euphoric while still being grounded and aware.

Unlike alcohol, THC seltzers won’t make you feel out of control or result in a blacked-out memory. Cannabis compounds can affect people differently, but these are some common effects:

Euphoric
Silly
Giggly
Munchy/hungry
Sleepy
Relaxed
Frisky
Creative
Talkative

The high from THC seltzers is sensational for every occasion, from a lively night out at a bar to an intimate game night with your partner. Some people may experience undesirable sensations, such as:

Paranoia
Anxiety
Fatigue
Dizziness

These feelings are typically mild and can pass quickly. If you start to feel anxious or paranoid, just try to ground yourself and remember that you’re safe. If you’re tired or dizzy, there’s nothing wrong with chilling on the couch. Some people may also experience dry eyes or dry mouth, but that’s less common when drinking THC than smoking it.

How Much Should I Take?

The best dose for you depends on several factors. Are you comfortable with cannabis? Do you use it regularly? How high do you want to be?

At Find Wunder, we offer two dosage options: 5mg THC Sessions and 10mg THC Higher Vibes. If you are brand-new to cannabis, we recommend starting with one of the Sessions and seeing how you feel. If you love it, have another!

For our devoted cannabis fans, you can start with a Higher Vibes can or two to reach a nice high. When it comes to cannabis, tolerance plays a big part.

People often ask, “How much is too much?” There isn’t a great answer to this question because there are little to no risks of “having too much.” If you want to drink five Higher Vibes in one night and get sky-high, you can.

We just recommend you pace yourself to ensure the high sets in before you crack open another can. Otherwise, you may get higher than you planned and feel uncomfortable.

Are They Bad for Me?

No! Some THC seltzers contain processed or refined sugars, but it’s hard to live in America and not consume them on any given day.

There are rare cases where people develop an intolerance to THC, making them feel nauseous when they consume it. But that’s very rare and typically only occurs in long-term, chronic cannabis users.

Not only are THC seltzers safe, but some also have added vitamins and minerals that can help you meet your daily nutrition goals. Furthermore, many California sober people drink THC seltzer in place of alcoholic beverages. And these THC drinks are dramatically safer than alcohol.

THC Seltzers vs. Alcohol

We could write a novel about how much better THC seltzer is for you than alcohol. It’s better for you physically, mentally, and emotionally. With alcohol, you get:

Heartburn
Bloating
Headaches
Hangovers
Blackouts
Poor coordination
Embarrassing pictures

With THC seltzer, you get:

Floaty feeling
Happy memories
Relaxed body

And that’s just the short term. In the long term, alcohol causes:

Hypertension (high blood pressure)
Heart disease
Hemorrhagic stroke
Liver disease
Digestive problems
Cancers
Weakened immune system
Learning and memory problems
Depression

Enjoying THC drinks long-term can lead to:

Pain relief
Reduced stress and anxiety
Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties
Neuroprotective and anticancer properties
Heart health
Improved sleep
Lessened depression and PTSD
Soothed headaches and migraines
Boosted immunity
Relaxation and calmness

Most alcoholic drinks also have more calories and sugar than THC seltzers. It’s very hard to think of a single way that alcohol is better than THC drinks. We actually can’t come up with one.

Battle of the Brands

With THC seltzers on the rise, many brands are popping up. But which one is the best THC seltzer? Which is the strongest? Which tastes the best? Which offers a balanced high? Which one is the most cost-effective?

The easy answer is Find Wunder, but you can see for yourself in the overview below. This is a breakdown of the THC, calories, sugar, and other ingredients in four top brands’ drinks, as well as the cost and flavor options. We will also list any notable ingredients that have nutritional value or could impact the experience.

Some brands have fewer calories than Find Wunder, but they don’t have the high THC content or yummy flavors. Some brands have even more flavors than Find Wunder, but the high sugar and calorie content means they’re less healthy.
