Marijuana has a lot of social stigmas attached to it. But ask those who enjoy getting high on it, they do not really care. Weed smoking has been a fancy among youngsters today and all said and done about the benefits as well as ill-effects, those who prefer weed will always find it. But as the world gets experimental with cannabis, there are certain brewers who have gone ahead and blended it in drinks. It is also observed that those who really prefer weed do not really look for alcohol. But for someone who prefers both, these drinks could serve as potions!
Indians are only aware of Bhaang as a cannabis-infused drink, but around the world, there are several drinks which infuse marijuana leaves. The latest addition comes with a weed-infused beer being planned by popular Belgian brand Blue Moon. Keith Villa, the founder is focusing on creating THC-laden beer through a new company named Ceria Beverages. It will be non-alcoholic but still get you high! Let us wait to see how that turns out.
