🍸 Introduction: The Rise of THC Mocktails

People are moving away from alcohol and toward wellness-driven alternatives that let them unwind, socialize, and celebrate with intention. With hemp-derived THC syrups, seltzers, sodas, and even "THC liquor?" (I have seen some brands out there with high MG "liquor style"); where you can now create sophisticated mocktails that deliver calmness, creativity, relaxation, and more depending on the user — minus the hangover and empty calories.
Why It Matters: THC mocktails offer precise control over your vibe. You can micro-dose for a subtle lift or go bold for a more immersive experience — all while skipping the next-day fog. You can add Functional Terpenes to all of these blends to create a truly unique experience.
