Atlanta-based energy drink brand Kill Cliff has announced the launch of Kill Cliff Octane, a new CBD-based energy drink line that has entered the market with the release of its first beverage, the Killer Cliffsicle.
The Killer Cliffsicle is an orange and vanilla flavored beverage infused with a combination of CBD and caffeine. According to John Timar, the CEO of Kill Cliff, the new hybrid energy drink results from the company "pioneering a brand new category” -- one that aims to blend the benefits of cannabis and caffeine.
Each can of Killer Cliffsicle delivers 125 mg of caffeine and 125 mg of hemp extract, which packs 25 mg of CBD. The brand new beverage is currently available for purchase in 12 packs on the Kill Cliff website.
