Ever had a sip of a THC drink, waited five minutes, and wondered, “Do I feel it yet?” We’ve all been there. Then, ten minutes later, the sofa becomes your best friend. At Little Rick, we’re all about helping you find your sweet spot — just the right dose without going full space cadet.
Understanding THC Dosage in Beverages
So, what is THC, anyway? It’s short for tetrahydrocannabinol — the compound in cannabis that gets you high. That floaty, fuzzy, everything’s-funnier-than-it-should-be kind of high.
But when THC is in a drink, it hits a little different. You’re not puffing, you’re sipping. You’re getting a measured dose, designed to kick in cleanly. That’s the beauty of it.
At Little Rick, we offer two formulas:
-
5mg THC / 10mg CBD – mellow, social, easygoing
-
25mg THC / 25mg CBD – stronger, smoother, more noticeable chill
Each blend comes with a side of taurine — because a bit of function with your fun never hurts.
According to cannabis ingredient experts at SōRSE Technology, THC in drinks absorbs quicker and more evenly than your average edible. You get reliable results. No guesswork. No 90-minute wait followed by “oh no.”
Choosing the Right Dosage Based on Experience
THC hits differently depending on your tolerance, metabolism, and last meal (yes, tacos count). So, how do you pick the best dosage for your chill level?
Let’s break it down by experience level.
Canna-Curious (Beginner)
First time? Or maybe you had a gummy once at Coachella and don’t totally remember how it ended?
Cool — start with our 5mg can. That’s our lightest option and plenty for most beginners. You’ll probably feel lighter, calmer, maybe a little silly. Not “locked to the couch” — just pleasantly out of email mode.
Even Dr. Kasabuski says 2–5mg is ideal for newbies. Low and slow. Always the move.
Occasional Consumer
You’ve had edibles. You’ve hit a vape or two. You’re not new, but you’re not daily.
You might enjoy 10–15mg. Half a 25mg Little Rick will likely hit that sweet middle. Enough for some real buzz — but not so much that your brain forgets how a spoon works.
Want to go all in? Cool — just sip slowly. Wait 45 minutes. Then decide if you want more.
Seasoned Consumer
Alright, you’ve got a tolerance. This isn’t your first rodeo.
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine suggests a common dose for daily consumers of 20–30mg. That’s right where the Little Rick 25mg THC option lands.
It gives you that full-body effect — a mellow headspace, loose shoulders, and maybe some extremely focused thoughts about snacks.
One can should do it. Maybe two, if you’re watching cartoons and not trying to, say, go to work.
How Long Does It Take for THC Drinks to Kick In?
Unlike a joint, you won’t feel a THC drink in two seconds. But it kicks in faster than brownies.
Expect it to hit within 10 to 30 minutes, depending on:
- What you ate
- Your metabolism
- How much you’ve had recently
Our drinks are formulated to be fast-acting, so you won't need to wait too long before feeling the effects. You'll enjoy a delicious cocktail-like flavor first, followed by a quick, uplifting buzz and pure euphoria.
Drink Little Rick & Find Your Sweet Spot
We didn’t make these drinks to knock you out. We made them to help you kick back, chat, and enjoy the night without worrying about hangovers or harsh vibes.
Here’s what makes our THC drinks a win:
- Two strength options, so you’re always in control
- Balanced with CBD, to mellow the ride
- Taurine-infused, because focus and fun aren’t enemies
- Soda-style flavors, not that weird bitter weed taste
- And best of all — you know exactly what you’re getting
So, how many THC drinks can you have per day?
Technically? As many as you want — if your goal is to become one with the couch.
But realistically, most people feel great after one or two cans. One can will be like drinking two glasses of wine. The 5mg can is great for chill hangs, and the 25mg is best for kicking back harder. It all depends on your tolerance and what you’ve got planned.
Our advice? Respect the dosage. Sip. Wait. See how you feel.
