The Rise of THC Seltzers: Why Sparkling Beverages Are the Future of Cannabis

Cannabis is changing — and so are the ways people enjoy it. Gone are the days when edibles meant brownies or gummies only. Today, THC seltzers are leading a new wave of cannabis consumption, combining refreshment, consistency, and social appeal in one can.

Here’s why sparkling THC beverages are quickly becoming the future of cannabis.


Faster Onset, Smoother Experience

Traditional edibles can take 1–2 hours to kick in, leaving people unsure of when they’ll feel the effects. With THC seltzers, cannabinoids are infused using water-soluble emulsions, which the body absorbs more quickly.

That means you’ll typically feel the effects in 15–30 minutes, with a balanced taper after 1–2 hours.

The Mindful Drinking Movement

Across the country, more people are seeking alternatives to alcohol. THC beverages fit perfectly into this cultural shift:

  • Hangover-free enjoyment

  • Lower calories and sugar than cocktails

  • Social rituals without overindulgence

For those who want connection without compromise, seltzers are the natural choice.

Low-Dose, High Appeal

Most THC seltzers, including Tree Time, are designed at 5mg THC per serving — the sweet spot for social sipping. That low-dose approach makes cannabis approachable for beginners and enjoyable for experienced consumers alike.
