Alohi has launched a sparkling THC beverage built around the ritual of social drinking rather than the alcohol itself, blending a hemp-derived THC with ashwagandha, rhodiola, and passion flower to create a light, functional unwind experience. The Alohi sparkling THC beverage comes in Peach Tangerine, Mango Passionfruit, and Hibiscus Lemonade, in 5mg and 10mg, and is vegan, gluten-free, low-calorie, and naturally sweetened.
The brand targets a younger demographic that still wants something to hold at a party, something that feels intentional and social, just without the hangover.
As the sober-curious movement transforms socializing, Alohi demonstrates how combining functional adaptogens with a sparkling format provides consumers with a drink that feels like a true choice, not a compromise.
