CBD and THC drinks: Bioavailable and delicious
CBD and THC drinks are one of the newest products on the market. Sometimes that means it can still be difficult to find. Luckily for you, we make them in house! You can get your daily dose from any of our five delicious varieties. We carry Fruit Punch, Lemonade, Southern Sweet Tea, Raspberry Lemonade Water, and Berry Pomegranate Water. They all come in Delta 8 THC, 50mg and 100mg, or classic Full Spectrum CBD, 100mg.
At Hemp Trails the CBD and THC drinks are made with homogenization for better bioavailability. Homogenization gives a smoother mouth feel and is responsible for you absorbing more of the product. Bioavailability refers to how well you absorb it. Basically, it means that we blend our drinks in such a way that it makes it easier for your system to absorb the Delta 8 THC or CBD. That ensures that you get the most out of your milligrams!
What is homogenization?
Homogenization is a process used in various industries, particularly in food and dairy production, to create a consistent and uniform mixture. It involves breaking down or reducing the size of fat globules in liquids (such as milk) to prevent separation and create a smooth, homogeneous product.
In our case, it breaks down the size of the cannabis distillate molecules so that it can be absorbed into water. Cannabis is hydrophillic meaning it doesn’t like water. It’s quite difficult to force this reaction and even more difficult when they have 50 and 100mg. Thats why many companies make 5 or 10 mg drinks. However, we are committed to making sure our customers get the most bang for their buck so we figured it out!
This process not only creates a uniform texture and consistency but also extends the shelf life of the product by preventing the separation of fats. Homogenization is commonly used in the production of various dairy products like milk, cream, yogurt, and ice cream, ensuring a smoother and more consistent product for consumers.
What could homogenization mean for hemp?
Why is enhanced bioavailability a good thing? You will absorb your cannabis faster and need smaller doses. And of course, drinks are super portable. Check out Cannasol Technologies for more great blogs on this topic. This company provides our nano optimizer and homogenizing equipment so you can even easily track the journey your drink has taken. Talk about knowing your source!
Homogenization can help ensure universal distribution into edibles. It allows for a liquid dilution of distillate to be made so it mixes in much better. Of course, we have already discussed how homogenization increases bioavailability. This leads to more consistent distibution of cannabinoids. Homogenization can also increase stability and shelf-life of products. We actually just completed a microbiological study on our drinks with Tennessee State University. Our drinks were determined shelf stable for an entire year! Overall, homogenization in the cannabis industry is a crucial step. It can ensure product consistency, accurate dosing, and improved bioavailability, which will contribute to the overall quality and effectiveness of cannabis-infused products.
