In the home stretch of summer, the sun’s still shining, but the countdown to shorter days is creeping in. It’s the perfect moment to savor what’s left: late afternoon hangs, rooftop laughs, backyard playlists, and a cold something in your hand that doesn’t leave you dragging the next day. At The Artist Tree, we’re all about helping you discover cannabis products that fit your lifestyle, so here’s your guide to sipping smarter while summer lasts.
Let’s kick things off with St. Ides, coming in hot for those who like their beverages bold. It punches with 100mg of THC in both the 4oz bottle or 12oz can—so yeah, not the best choice for first-timers if you’re planning to drink the entire thing. Their 12oz High Teas come in nostalgic flavors like Wild Raspberry and feature a rapid onset formula. This one’s built for seasoned consumers who want a heavy-hitter in a discreet package. St. Ides is 30% off every Saturday, as part of The Artist Tree’s August Daily Deals for Summer 2025.
Uncle Arnie’s brings tropical energy and also offers 100mg options in the form of 2oz shots and 12oz soda pops but with beachy flavors such as Magic Mango and Strawberry Kiwi. We just brought Uncle Arnie’s to The Artist Tree, so if you haven’t tried it yet, now’s the time. Even better—it’s 40% off every Thursday in August so you can stock up for the weekend. These are best saved for end-of-day wind downs, beach bonfires, or a “do nothing but float in the pool” kind of day.
On the more mellow side is Pabst Blue Ribbon, yes, the very same 100-year old beer brand, Pabst. They make 12oz seltzers with 10mg of THC, and 12oz soda pops with 25mg of THC. Lemon High Seltzer is a summer staple and a solid choice when you want something mellow but noticeable. They also make a Daytime Guava HIgh Seltzer with 10mg of THC and 5mg of THCv, which we hear is a great combo for a productive daytime buzz. Bonus: Pabst is 30% off on Saturdays in August.
If you’re looking for more flexibility with your dosing, CQ (Cannabis Quencher) offers a customizable dosing guide with their multi-serving bottles—each packin’ 100mg THC total.Each bottle contains 100mg THC, and the dosing window on the side of the bottle allows you to add a splash to your own seltzer or mocktail. You’re basically your own bartender now. Try the Blackberry Lemonade & Lime, made with real fruit.
And finally, we’ve got Cann, the microdosing OG. They basically invented the “sessionable” cannabis drink, made for sipping slowly and staying social. Each can has just 2mg of THC and 4mg of CBD, making it ideal for newcomers or anyone who wants to feel just enough. Think of it like a cannabis spritz for the wellness crowd. Flavors like Blood Orange Cardamom and Grapefruit Rosemary feel like items from a hipster brunch menu. A couple cans in and you’re still fully conversational.
Whatever you’re drinking this season, make sure you know your limits and start slow—especially when it’s hot out. Cannabis beverages hit a little different when you’re dehydrated, on an empty stomach, or mixing with other substances. No one wants to be the person who disappears from the party and never comes back. Sip slow, stay curious, and if you ever need a rec, you know where to find us.
