Cannabis Drinks 2025

In 2023, the market size of cannabis beverages was USD 2.04 billion. In 2024, that number is expected to climb to USD 3.09 billion, with projections of reaching USD 117.05 billion by 2032.

While much of this market growth has to do with a growing acceptance of recreational cannabis use, it also has to do with consumer familiarity. For many, a cannabis drink is similar to an alcoholic beverage – a great taste with intoxicating effects. It comes as no surprise some would prefer this route compared to smoking or vaping.

In fact, 17% of U.S. cannabis consumers drink these beverages. Most of those individuals are Millennials and Gen Z.

Aurora Cannabis Inc. is currently one of the largest American manufacturers of cannabis beverages, offering products in various fruity flavors. Another big name is Tilray Brands, Inc., providing ready-to-drink cold brew tea beverages.

While cannabis is recreationally legal in 24 states and medicinally in 38, THC-infused drinks are not always legal. For example, it wasn’t until 2024 that Connecticut lawmakers began to develop legislation to regulate the sales of cannabis drinks.

Since cannabis markets operate on a state-by-state level, all states are managed differently. Some allow cannabis drinks, some have potency caps, and others outright ban these beverages.

Still, with a growing acceptance of marijuana, we see more and more states dropping strict measures when it comes to cannabis-infused products. More so, in recent years, a legal loophole has allowed the federal sale of THC drinks – so long as they’re extracted from hemp.

Due to these points, it comes as no surprise that cannabis-infused drinks are expected to surpass USD 100 billion in sales within the next decade.

As more companies hop on the bandwagon, we see many cannabis and beverage innovations, from sparkling waters to alcoholic drinks.

Still, most consumers aren’t here to have a good time. The cannabis and cannabidiol (CBD) industries have a reputation for drawing in health-conscious buyers. With that in mind, many who buy these types of products are looking for something they can incorporate into their daily regimen.

As a result, the cannabis drinks market often incorporates other all-natural remedies. For example, in the products featured below, you’ll find magnesium, L-theanine, and more.

Manufacturers have also devised a diverse flavor profile to ensure there are varieties for everyone. While most of these are fruity, some of the tastes mentioned below may surprise you!

If you want a mild dose of marijuana, FIVE CBD has you covered. Coming with grapefruit and black cherry flavors, these seltzers are packed with 2mg to provide you with a solid buzz to get you through your day.

You can purchase these in a 6-, 12-, or 24-pack. FIVE CBD also offers a variety pack if you’re interested in trying both flavor options.

You may prefer Diet Smoke if you’re looking for a stronger potency. Each of their 2-ounce shots is made with 25mg of delta-9 THC. While a moderate dose for the connoisseur, if you’re new to cannabis, you may find this a bit overwhelming.

These can be purchased in 1, 3, or 5 shots. They also come in the flavors of Strawberry Hibiscus and Raspberry Lemonade.

While Cloud Water offers a few drink varieties, it’s their +Chill line that incorporates 25mg of hemp extract. Admittedly, this is simply a full-spectrum CBD product. Therefore, it won’t get you “high.” Still, the natural elements of CBD are bound to help you relax and have a stress-free day.

Cloud Water offers these beverages in five flavors, including:

• Watermelon & Ginger
• Half Tea & Half Lemonade
• Grapefruit Mint & Basil
• Blood Orange & Coconut
• Blackberry Lemon & Rosemary

Each option comes in a 12-pack, or you have the option for a variety pack.

Vybes Mood drink selection is more than just hemp CBD. These also contain 45mg of magnesium, which has been found to ease anxiety when taken daily.

Currently, Vybes offers these Mood drinks in the following flavors:

• Blood Orange Lime
• Blueberry Mint
• Passionfruit Pineapple
• Peach Ginger
• Strawberry Lavender

These can also be purchased in a variety pack if you want to try all these flavors.

For the health-conscious consumer, Recess is the way to go. That’s because each of their sparkling waters is infused with broad-spectrum hemp, American ginseng, L-theanine, and lemon balm. Since this is a THC-free option, it’s optimal if you’re worried about failing a drug test.

Recess currently offers six flavors, including:

• Blood Orange
• Peach Ginger
• Pomegranate Hibiscus
• Black Cherry
• Coconut Lime
• Blackberry Chai

You also have the option of a sampler pack if you just want to give these beverages a try.

The future of cannabis beverages looks bright. Most experts predict the market will hit USD 2.8 billion by next year – making these drinks an industry within themselves.

From current industry trends, we expect to see more herbal concoctions designed for the health-conscious consumer. In fact, according to the above-mentioned Fortune Business Insights report, nearly two-thirds of cannabis beverage consumers prefer non-alcoholic options. Therefore, it comes as no surprise many turn to these beverages as a way to cleanse rather than get intoxicated.
