What Are THC-Infused Drinks?
THC-infused drinks are any drink that has had consumable THC added to it. This has been an increasingly growing part of the cannabis market over the last few years and for good reason. Infusing THC into drinks had been extremely difficult in prior decades as THC is a fat-soluble substance. Fat and water don’t mix well and left the consistency and flavor of early drink options lackluster. However, weed science is a beautiful thing and within the last few years the community created a process to make THC water soluble. Consistency and flavor improved, and the market started to boom. More and more cannacurious people are starting to drink THC more than ever before. Drinking THC eliminates the social stigma of smoking while still providing the desired effect and is an inconspicuous way of intaking THC in social settings where you might not want that fact to be advertised.
So, why are THC drinks gaining popularity so rapidly?
- Everyone drinks something throughout their day and with water-soluble THC, any drink can be infused. That makes it quite possibly the most convenient way to intake THC.
- Drinking is more socially accepted than smoking. That is just a fact. You are far more likely to be judged for lighting up a joint than you are takin a sip of tea. Even if you are not an alcohol drinker you can sit back and have a cocktail with friends instead of having to go outside every so often to puff.
- It’s easier to control your dosage while drinking THC than it is while smoking THC. Which is why it’s so easy to go from cannacurious to cannaconsumer!
What you need to know about water soluble THC.
Water-soluble THC is relatively new to the cannabis market and is quickly becoming a fan favorite. Before its invention, THC edibles were made with oil-soluble THC which left onset time unpredictable and dosage sometimes harder to control for the novice user. Without going all science geek, here are the things you need to know about water-soluble THC vs oil-soluble THC.
Absorption Rate is Higher. The bodies absorption rate of oil-soluble THC is 30%. Whereas the body’s absorption rate is 80% with water-soluble THC. Rather than being broken down by the stomach to be processed by the liver, water-soluble THC more efficiently soaks into your stomach lining when broken down.
Reduced Onset Times. As water-soluble THC is more efficiently absorbed, the onset time is naturally reduced. No more sitting around waiting for something to happen. Water soluble THC onset time is 10-15 minutes.
Potency Increase. With an 80% absorption rate, potency is also increased to around slightly over double, so tread lightly. If you normally take 10mg, start at 5mg.
Shorter Duration. As the body processes water-soluble THC very quickly, it also shortens the duration. In most cases, this is a wonderful thing. It makes it easy to zone in on what dosage is right for you and how often you can take those doses.
But Edible THC Doesn’t Affect me. This is the real game changer. Most people who want to enjoy edible THC but can’t, now can! Enzyme factors in the liver are the primary cause that some have never experienced edible THC. Since water-soluble THC isn’t processed by the liver, they can now take the ride they’ve always wanted

It smells like the real thing, it looks like the real thing… CUZ IT IS THE REAL THING!
WHAT IS IS?
THC-A is almost identical to the more well-known Delta-9 cannabinoid, which means you’ll be getting a similar effect but for a way better price!
WHY?
THC-A converts into Delta-9 once it is combusted, or it is lit!
Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, THC-A is 100% legal because it’s considered hemp, which contains less than 0.3% Delta-9 BEFORE it is combusted. But not after, lucky us!
THC-A FLOWER is available in 1g pre-rolls & 3.5g jars currently at our retail store in East Dubuque, IL, our Dab Lab in Platteville, WI, or participating wholesalers in Wisconsin or Illinois. Larger bulk quantities only available in store. NO OUT OF STATE LIMITS!
Rotating strains & new products are AVAILABLE every month!

No. Federal law classifies marijuana as a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), meaning that the government doesn’t recognize its medical use and considers it a substance of high risk for abuse. Possessing, growing, transporting, and distributing marijuana is a federal felony.
Individual laws that have legalized marijuana for recreational or medical use have challenged the federal government, creating a contradiction between the rights of states to create their own regulations and the federal government’s power.
However, the federal government has decided not to interfere with marijuana legalization in states that have decided to do so. In 2009, the Obama administration instructed federal prosecutors not to chase people distributing marijuana following state medical cannabis laws.
