Featuring Not Your Father’s
When the holidays roll in, it’s the perfect time to get creative with cannabis beverages, especially if you want festive flavor without the booze. At Tropicanna, we stock a wide selection of THC-infused drinks, and Not Your Father’s continues to be one of the most popular choices in the lineup. Their nostalgic soda-style flavors make them an ideal base for fun, flavorful THC mocktails.
This guide walks you through three simple holiday mocktails, each infused with a Not Your Father’s drink and built around easy ingredients you can find at any grocery store. Whether you’re hosting friends or relaxing at home, these are effortless to make and even easier to enjoy.
Before we begin, one quick reminder: Start low and sip slow. THC beverages can have quicker onset compared to traditional edibles, so pace yourself, especially when flavor makes it tempting to keep sipping.
