Canopy Growth expands Deep Space, Tweed beverage lines

Company adds new options in time for spring season.

Canopy Growth Corporation has launched cannabis-infused beverages with naturally occurring caffeine under the Deep Space brand.

The company is also launching four new flavors under the Tweed brand in time for spring.

"Consumers can enjoy an extra spring in their step with the introduction of Deep Space Propulsion – a first-of-its-kind cannabis beverage with naturally occurring caffeine," said Dave Paterson, president, Canada, Canopy Growth. "And, as consumers gear up to enjoy that extra hour of sunshine, Tweed is ready with new flavors to tantalize taste buds. We're proud to bring new and novel products to life through the Deep Space and Tweed brands that offer ground-breaking experiences that surpass consumer expectations."

Deep Space is launching two new cannabis beverages to its lineup, making it the first in the Canadian market to combine cannabis and caffeine in a beverage. Each with 10 mg THC, 30 mg of naturally occurring caffeine and 10 mg CBG, Deep Space Propulsion Pulsar Peach and Deep Space Propulsion Cosmic Cherry Lime take cannabis beverages to a higher level.

The peach soda has notes of honeydew and cantaloupe, while the cherry soda has a punch of zesty lime. The 355 ml beverages are perfect for those looking to stay connected and enjoy spring's longer days.

Canopy Growth’s Tweed brand continues to expand its beverage product offerings with Iced Tea Peach with 5 mg THC. Pairing perfectly with warmer weather, the non-carbonated, naturally flavored, iced cannabis tea complements the Lemon and Raspberry iced tea flavors currently available to consumers through Tweed.

Tweed's new cannabis infused Sparkling Lemonade, also available in Strawberry, is a carbonated drink made with fruit juice. It contains 7.5 mg THC, making it a refreshing and tangy beverage perfect for cooling off as temperatures rise.

Tweed also welcomes Tweed Fizz Pineapple sparkling water to the brand's growing portfolio. The light and refreshing beverage contains 5 mg THC and is naturally flavored. This offering joins Tweed's current roster of Fizz flavors including Cherry, Mango and Watermelon.

The new beverages are available for purchase via legal recreational cannabis e-commerce channels and retail locations in select regions.
