THC Drinks vs. Hemp-Derived THC Drinks
So what’s the difference, and why did we choose hemp-derived Delta-9 THC? Cannabis-derived THC drinks are only sold through licensed dispensaries in legal states. Hemp-derived THC, however, comes from federally legal hemp and allows brands like STIIIZY to offer infused beverages in more states as laws continue to evolve.
Our hemp-derived THC drinks deliver the same high-quality experience, crafted for consistency and broader accessibility, giving more people access to elevated, non-alcoholic options.
The rise of THC beverages
THC beverage markets are booming in popularity and are projected to hit $4 billion by 2028. As they enter the mainstream, infused beverages are changing how people unwind, though not without raising a few questions along the way.
The New Age of Non-Alcoholic, Infused Drinking
As more people get into the world of hemp, we figured it would be the perfect time to introduce some amazing mocktail recipes. As more people move away from alcohol, alternatives like THC drinks and infused seltzers are transforming social rituals. Whether it's for wellness reasons or lifestyle preference, other non-alcoholic options are gaining momentum. STIIIZY is proud to introduce a premium mocktail recipe series that blends mixology, innovation, and cannabis into a new kind of beverage experience.
STIIIZY’s Premium Mocktail Series brings together cannabis culture and top-tier mixology for a new wave of infused drinking. Designed for adults who want flavor, control, and a non-alcoholic alternative, these mocktail recipes are crafted in partnership with LA’s own Michael Maffee. Each drink can be made with cannabis-derived or hemp-derived THC, making the series both versatile and accessible as legalization expands. Whether you’re at an event, hosting at home, or simply exploring what’s next in beverage trends, STIIIZY mocktails deliver the taste and innovation you expect, with none of the alcohol.
