Every now and again, there's a new beverage that creates a sensation. This is especially true when there is an added element of taboo to the brew. It appears that states are rushing to legalize good ole Mary Jane, the pseudonym for marijuana, to cash in on the tax revenues.
Marijuana, Hemp, Cannabis or any other derivative of weed is sure to gain wide spread attention. Not surprisingly, entrepreneurs are looking to cash in as well, even when they don't have marijuana dispensaries. There's a drink on the market made of hemp seeds that has gained national acceptance, it's called the Cannabis Energy Drink.
What Is Cannabis Energy Drink?
Introducing the next generation in stoner technology. Smoking the poor bush wasn’t enough, now they’ve got another way to let you know they only smoke that good bush. It’s a Cannabis Energy Drink. A complete oxymoron. What stoner needs energy when all they want to do is chill and eat Cheetos?
Apparently the minority who needed it are well connected, because their drink is now lit. But there are still some concerns with the product. Who knew stoners could be concerned?
What Ingredients Are A Part Of Cannabis Energy Drink?
Interestingly enough, Cannabis Energy Drink holds most, if not all, of the ingredients found in its rivals. These include:
- B6
- B12
- Taurine
- Sugar Cane
- Caffeine
The only distinguishing difference between the three rival beverages is the amount of these base ingredients placed into them. RedBull makes its mark by using mass doses of the B vitamins, whereas Monster holds its own via its use of Taurine and caffeine. Cannabis Energy Drink finds itself on a little island called uniqueness, as it uses Hemp Seeds as one of its major bases.
Price Of Cannabis Energy Drink
If anyone has an addiction to energy drinks – because there’s nobody just having one of them – they can tell the tale of the overpriced energy drink. Some go upwards of four dollars. That’s usually because of a loyal fan-base, who enjoy the product.
Even though Cannabis Energy Drink may not have as loyal buyers, they do seem to have a Monopoly on Cannabis fueled beverages. Their price for a single 12 ounce can is two dollars and fifty cents. So why not boot up the price?
RedBull Vs. Monster Vs. Cannabis Energy Drink
RedBull and Monster fans have been around sine there have been energy drinks. These companies have loyal fanbases who believe their products work. With Cannabis Energy Drink being so young, they do have loyal fans, but not as embedded into the company as the other two. Yet they seem to have no nameable rivals for their cannabis drinking fans; so why don’t they jump the prices?
It seems to come down to the fact that the company itself is relatively new, and does not have a completely loyal fanbase yet, unlike Redbull and KickStart. So the easiest way to gain attention would to keep the cost minimal and the product working. That, however, begs the question: Does the beverage work?
Does Cannabis Energy Drink Work?
Unfortunately for the energy drink aficionado, only about 50 percent of energy drinks actually aid with fueling the body with energy. This means the other half of the energy drinks are lying and giving out the sour Smarties flavor for nothing but dead dreams.
Looking into it more, it seems that Cannabis Energy Drink, unlike RedBull and KickStart, does not have any published scientific data to back up these claims of fueling the body. This does come as an issue, but with easily purchased products, one can look to the customer reviews as well.
For the majority of the product reviews on Amazon, it seems that, while flavorful, Cannabis Energy Drink misses the premise of an energy drink, as it does not use enough of the ingredients to create a buzzed or wired sensation. This makes for an unsatisfying discovery for much of its buyers, but with the company being small, it could still step up its game. So a bigger question comes to mind. What is Cannabis Energy Drink worth?
Product worth
Every product is judged on the basis of it doing what it promises. For energy drinks, it’s fueling you for the day, for weed, it’s Hakuna Mattata. Either way, the rating increases or decreases with the customer’s satisfaction with the product. And with Cannabis Energy Drink, it seems to have found a middle ground.
Most of the time, through the reviews, it seems that the flavour is on par with the likes of Monster or RedBull, but not fruity enough to be compared to Nos. As for the effect, it is most comparable to Nos rather than RedBull. It has the tingling effect for a bit, giving a slight edge, but it drops back down quickly. So, what is this product, all in all?
Final Thoughts
Though it finds itself at the middle ground of average, Cannabis Energy Drink most certainly seems eligible to become more than it is. It seems that what it is has been based on the size of the company and what they can produce with their budget.
The larger they grow, the better the product. These Nords know what they’re doing. So the best bet for the best product is to support them and let them build a better weed infused drink.
