WUNDER Drink Product Test: Blackberry-Lemon

The cannabis drink game is tricky. While cannabis drinks are marketed as alcohol alternatives, the reality is that THC alone is not a social lubricant.

Drinking alcohol wears you down. They become sociable, silly, and carefree to the point of regret. Cannabis, especially isolated THC, tends to turn you inward. You become introspective, vibey, and hungrier for snacks than conversation. The intrinsic rupture in these drinks’ social impact has prevented what has been billed as a meteoric rise to the top of the industry. But if you ask me, they just mix them wrong.

That’s why I like Miracle, a cannabis drink that combines THC and Delta-8. I particularly like the new Higher Vibes line, which contains 10 milligrams of THC and 10 milligrams of Delta-8 per can.

This review is specifically about Higher Vibes’ new blackberry-lemon flavor, which hits for a number of reasons.

First impression

I like that Higher Vibes doesn’t only contain THC. For a weed drink to make you feel like partying, it needs to contain other things besides a nano-emulsified THC distillate. It hits you right away, but not in the way you would like. Without the balancing benefits of other cannabinoids, THC can make you paranoid and anxious, the opposite of how you want to feel in a group.

While Delta-8 is a CBD-derived synthetic cannabinoid that should normally be avoided due to the unregulated nature of the synthetic cannabinoid market, the Delta-8 used by Wunder is safe, lab-tested, and adds to the drink’s social nature. Not all Delta-8 is terrible, just most.

taste

The blackberry-lemon flavor tastes great, which is surprisingly rare for a weed drink. Nano-emulsified THC is a THC oil that has been broken down small enough to be absorbed into your bloodstream like alcohol, which is why the high hits you fast and hard, just like alcohol.

The downside to nano is that it tastes damn disgusting, bitter, disgusting and overall not something you want to drink. The biggest hurdle with beverages is masking that taste. Wonder crushes it in this arena with a flavor that’s berry, fruity, clean, and enjoyable. You would never know it was Nano.

Effect

These cannabis drinks are strong. 10 milligrams of THC and 10 milligrams of Delta-8 will leave you feeling more than a little rippled, almost like drinking multiple glasses of wine. It’s rare to see higher strength drinks on the market due to a misconception that lower strength drinks will create new cannabis users. It also creates a space for brands to charge insane prices for very little weed.

Wunder’s Higher Vibes isn’t expensive, though—around $20 for a 4-pack, which would be a total of 40 milligrams of THC. As an experienced stoner with a higher tolerance, I appreciate the psychoactive weight of this drink.

Now I like to drink alcohol, but try not to do it as much, so weed drinks are super appealing. I tried the new wonder blackberry lemon drink in a real life situation when I went to a cannabis event with a few people I work with. afraid to begin.

Normally I’d drink some wine or something, but instead I cracked this drink’s incredibly difficult childproofing. The opening sip is bomb. Crisp. Berry. citrus. The effects kicked in about halfway through the drink and I forgot why I was even anxious.

The high from Wunder’s drink was balanced and lasted long enough not to annoy me or want to go home, which says a lot for me. I was able to freely consume other cannabis products as well without getting anxious or overly stoned, which again I attribute to the Delta 8 high, which takes the edge off regular THC.

bottom line

Message from my iPhone notes at the party: “The world is dripping like warm water. Sharp experiences like stress and pain are replaced with a yacht-like lift and I don’t feel weird at all.”

Overall, this is a great drink for social situations and for those who want to be social in situations but don’t want to drink alcohol to get there.
