The ButACake Cherry Hibiscus Elixir has been launched in New Jersey from the cannabis brand as its latest marijuana refreshment that makes use of Azuca's proprietary technology to accelerate effects for consumers. The drink is formulated using Azura's TiME INFUSION processing and has the RTD ACTiVATOR that enables it to achieve onset in five to 15-minutes.

The ButACake Cherry Hibiscus Elixir features a tart cherry, floral hibiscus and citrus taste profile with 5mg of THC in each 7.5-ounce serving to position it as an ideal alternative to cocktails or other cannabis-infused solutions. The drink is arriving now at a variety of dispensaries in the New Jersey area including Blue Oak Dispensary, Shipwreck'd Dispensary, URB'N Dispensary & Consumption Lounge and Queen City.
