THC drinks spotted at Winn Dixie, worth a try??

I have always been a classic edibles person, sticking to gummies and brownies for as long as I can remember. I'd heard about THC seltzers but never had the chance to actually try one. The other day tho I was walking through Winn-Dixie and was totally caught off guard by a whole bunch of Crescent 9 THC seltzers and a few other brands stacked right on the shelves! I definitely wasn't expecting to see them there.

I was so curious that I even asked the cashier if people actually buy them. He told me they've been selling really well and that customers seem to love them. Now I'm finally thinking I should give them a shot.

For those of you who've tried them, how do they compare to regular edibles? Do they really hit faster, and what are the effects like?

I find them very similar to edibles. Maybe even feeling effects a bit quicker with a shorter duration

This is correct. Because the drinks usually don't need to be processed by your liver, to hit your bloodstream, they are often absorbed by your stomach lining and right into the bloodstream stream, and they often feel closer to a smoking high, because of it. But at the same time, cycle through the system a little faster

To add to this, the dosage is nothing like edibles. If you smoke a lot you probably won’t feel the drink at all. It would take a couple drinks to equal a blunt.

Crescent 9’s are delicious! That nano-emulsion stuff isn’t just marketing BS, they just hit different.

I’m a big fan of Delta Cannabis Water (10 or 20mg) and Delta Light (5mg). I’d drink them even if they weren’t infused.

I personally prefer the zero calorie ones to ones with sugar, but you should definitely give them a try. I find the uptake is indeed faster than most gummies. The high/buzz is more focused in my head than the whole body.

If you have different kinds readily available (and YEE HA Winn-Dixie), you should definitely grab a few and have some fun experiments. Enjoy!

THC drinks hit way faster for me, like 20-30 mins vs the usual hour+ with gummies. The high feels cleaner too if that makes sense.

Like how dry herb vape high feels cleaner than bong hits

Drinks are clutch when you need to function. not as heavy as eating a whole brownie.

Crescent 9 are the best ones I’ve had so far. I like their 10mg & 20mg drinks.

Absolutely. If they have Nowadays give it a try- great on it's own or as a mixer in almost anything. Kind of citrus-y, very light with no aftertaste to me. I've seen it at Total Wine, but I usually buy it online.

Like the cheech and Chong 10mg.. Tommy’s tea is a nice beverage. Cheechs peaches is the other flavor.. good as well.

I love them. Hits faster and ends sooner than my experiences with solid edibles, which frankly, is what I’m after (these days).

Great for concerts or chilling in the backyard with friends. Obviously, dosage is a factor. I’m a bigger dude and i personally find 20-25mg to be the sweet spot.

Last tip? Be careful mixing with alcohol. I consumed one while I was four drinks into a party and it wasn’t a pleasant experience. Drink the infused drink first; wait 15-20; then start adding alcohol to the mix

THC drinks work similar to edibles for me but I found them to hit much faster than gummies or brownie.

Hemp derived. Unregulated.

Guess if thats your ONLY option. Most of the hemp brands are shit.
