As Minnesota leads the nation with thoughtful cannabis regulations that allow for access to low-dose products, more Minnesotans than ever are adding cannabis drinks to their summer lineup. One of the favorites and bestsellers is WYNK—a light, balanced, and delicious zero-calorie cannabis-infused seltzer. Imagine the flavor of your favorite local seltzer crossed with the buzz of a light beer.
WYNK’s effects kick in within 15 minutes and last over an hour, making it an easy alternative to rosé, hard seltzer, or beer, but without the hangover or sugar. And guess what? More Minnesotans than ever are making the switch.
According to Gallup, the number of alcohol drinkers in the U.S. is decreasing. Only 62% of adults under 35 reported drinking alcohol, down from 72% two decades ago. This decline is partly due to the rise of cannabis-infused drinks like WYNK, which offer a buzzier experience than mocktails.
Minnesotans can now find WYNK at local bars, restaurants, mom-and-pop shops, grocery stores, and even liquor stores like Total Wine & More. If you’re new to cannabis or still on the fence about making the switch, here’s a quick guide on how to bring these new drinks to the party.
What are low-dose hemp-derived THC beverages?
Both marijuana and hemp are cannabis plants, and while the various derivatives of cannabis and their effects can be confusing, THC extracted from hemp is the same as THC from marijuana, providing the same intoxicating effects. Despite originating from hemp plants with low-THC concentrations, hemp-derived THC undergoes careful extraction and processing to ensure purity and potency. This allows consumers to enjoy a consistent and reliable experience similar to traditional cannabis products without the need for a trip to a dispensary.
Why choose WYNK?
Since 2021, WYNK has become a trusted 1:1 THC:CBD zero-calorie seltzer. WYNK’s light and balanced blend of THC and CBD offers a bubbly buzz that’s perfect any night of the week. While THC often steals the spotlight for its psychoactive effects, we now understand that the potential wellness benefits of cannabis are optimized when other natural cannabinoids found in the plant join the party to support it. This phenomenon is often referred to as “The Entourage Effect.” Effects typically kick in within 10-15 minutes of consumption and last approximately 90 minutes.
How do I get started?
Just like barbecue: go low and slow. In this new world of THC-infused beverages, finding the right dose is crucial. WYNK, with its perfectly balanced THC:CBD seltzer, makes it easy with two sizes—standard (5mg of THC and 5mg of CBD per can) and mini (2.5mg of THC and 2.5mg of CBD per can)—giving you greater control and customization over your cannabis experience. It’s a delicious, sessionable way to indulge in a social buzz. WYNK is made with all-natural flavors and comes in Black Cherry Fizz, Lime Twist, Juicy Mango, and the newly released Tangerine.
