Green Monké first stepped onto the scene in the United Kingdom in 2019. The popular cannabis soda line was an instant hit, selling 1 million units in its inaugural year. “We brought it across the pond, added THC, and have since launched in Ontario, Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan, Canada, as well as the California and Maine in the United States,” the Green Monké team tells Hall of Flowers. The brand’s CBD drink offering, Green Monké Hemp, is also available nationwide on Amazon in the U.S.
Green Monké is a cannabis-infused soda with a “social” low dose of 3mg THC and 6mg CBD. The company’s easy-drinking tropical flavors are best experienced when chilled or over ice. The soda gives you an effervescent social high with the calming and relaxing effects of the CBD, plus a fast onset of around 15 minutes for a “great time, every time.”
Green Monké Tropical Citrus is a lightly sparkling, emerald green waterfall of flavor bursting with pineapple, grapefruit, and yuzu notes. This crowd-pleasing flavor has a 2:1 CBD to THC ratio, 25 calories, 5g of sugar, and is vegan-friendly and gluten-free. Tropical Citrus was even named the “best-tasting THC drink in California” in April 2022 by The Daily Dot and made Thrillist’s Best Cannabis Edibles the past two years in a row.
In July 2022, Green Monké partnered with skateboarder, community organizer, model and actor
Brianna King (she/they) to launch its first high-dose beverage with 10mg THC and 20mg CBD. Following the success in California, high-dose Tropical Citrus is coming to Canada in late 2022. Green Monké makes it easier for consumers looking for alcohol alternatives to partake in cocktail hour festivities with a social tonic that balances the effects of THC and CBD perfectly. “It’s the first cannabis drink in Canada to offer a 2:1 CBD/THC microencapsulation emulsion with fast-release technology so consumers feel high faster,” the Green Monké team tells us. How fast is the onset time for these beverages? “Within approximately 15 minutes of consumption.”
Green Monké sparks a fun social high with 3 milligrams of “Delta 9” THC and 3 milligrams of Canadian-grown cannabis distillate for body calmness. Green Monké “Delta 9” THC comes from the hybrid Sensi-Star strain comprising 70 percent indica and 30 percent sativa. Green Monke Tropical Citrus, Mango Guava, and Orange Passionfruit low-dose sodas are available in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, and Saskatchewan. Keep your eyes out for a high-dose drink, coming to Canada in late 2022.
