We tested, reviewed, and have rounded up our favorite CBD products in the beverage category because, let’s face it — we needed something fun to drink in dry January!
Prima
For an on-the-go option packed with adaptogens
Prima makes a powdered CBD beverage in perfectly portioned packets for on-the-go consumption. Called The Trifecta, it includes three different elixirs: The Go-To, Brain Fuel and Rest Easy. We particularly love the Brain Fuel, which packs in 10mg of CBD and some of our favorite adaptogens (Ashwagandha, Rhodiola, Lion’s Mane and Ginkgo) without the bitter aftertaste. Blend it into your morning smoothie or sub it for your afternoon espresso when it’s time to focus.
Vybes
For a higher CBD dose that can soothe anxiety
Vybes “functional beverages” contain the most CBD per serving of any of the beverages we reviewed, and, with 25mg per bottle, definitely had us feeling the anti-anxiety effects. The flavors are juicy and bright with just the right amount of sweetness, and we loved the Peach Ginger and the Honeycrisp Basil, which basically tastes like an adults-only apple juice.
Lagom Teas
For a sustainable option with a caffeine kick
We love the Lagom brand for their emphasis on sustainability — just two clicks into their website and you’ll find part of their commitment to a supply chain “rooted in environmental consciousness.” But just as important: their tea is delicious! We love the Brighten Moroccan Mint which is blended with green tea for a touch of caffeine alongside 15mg of CBD. Brighten was a great name for this blend, as it definitely had us feeling more alert after a mid-afternoon cup.
Sweet Reason
For crisp bubbles that swap in for La Croix or Veuve
Sweet Reason is a sparkling water CBD beverage that we could sum up as a La Croix with 10mg of CBD benefits. We loved the Strawberry + Lavender, with crisp, refreshing bubbles and a bold yet summer-y flavor of juicy berries and calming lavender. Sweet Reason also pours well into a mocktail: head to their website to find recipes for spirit-free tipples.
