What is a CBD drink?
Infused with the non-psychoactive element of the hemp plant, CBD drinks carry the same components of other CBD products but in a delicious and more convenient format. Available in a range of flavours and formats, from Cold Brew Coffee to sparkling botanical varieties, CBD drinks that can either be enjoyed solo, chilled or mixed into a cocktail, there are several options for people wanting to incorporate CBD drinks into their daily routines.
How long does a CBD drink take to work?
On average it will typically take around 20 minutes for you to feel the effects of a CBD drink. Dosage and effects are completely personal though, so the dose of CBD in the product and the amount of product consumed will affect the benefits felt and the time it takes for you to feel more calm and balanced!
How long does a CBD drink stay in your system?
Any and all CBD products are typically expected to stay in your system between two and five days, and CBD drinks are no different. However, how long CBD stays in your system will be indicated by a number of factors such as how much you’ve taken, how often you take CBD products, whether you’ve eaten food with it and specific details about your body such as your metabolism, water content and body mass index.
Does a CBD drink go off?
As with any drink, CBD drinks do expire and it would always be recommended that you finish off your CBD drinks before the ‘best before’ date detailed on the label. Most products containing elements of CBD typically last between 12 and 24 months before expiring, but an expiry date should be clearly shown on the product.
Can infused CBD drinks make you high?
CBD is a non-psychoactive element of the cannabis plant. This means that if you are considering trying a CBD drink, you shouldn’t be concerned that it may make you ‘high’. This feeling is caused by THC - a separate psychoactive element of the cannabis plant - and is not used to create CBD drinks.
Are CBD drinks legal in the UK?
CBD drinks are legal in the UK providing they don’t contain any more than 0.2 per cent THC. This applies to all CBD products in the UK. As long as CBD drinks don’t exceed 0.2 per cent of THC, they abide by UK law and are perfectly legal.
