A company based in Soquel, CA, is launching a line of soda pot — or, marijuana soda — in Colorado this month, according to Time Magazine.
It’s designer, Clay Butler, says the soda pot line — called Canna Cola — will include “flagship cola drink Canna Cola, the Dr Pepper–like Doc Weed, the lemon-lime Sour Diesel, the grape-flavored Grape Ape and the orange-flavored Orange Kush,” according to the Santa Crux Sentinel.
The soda will contain 35 to 65 milligrams of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis. The labels promise “12 mind blowing ounces.”
Canna Cola’s makers plan to sell it to medical-marijuana dispensaries in Colorado, and hope to launch it in California by the spring.
Looming, however, is a bill in Congress sponsored by Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the so-called “Brownie Law,” which passed the Senate last year. It would increase penalties for makers of products that combine marijuana with “a candy product” or anyone who markets such products to minors.
Parents, what do you think about marijuana soda? And how do you think it compares to Four Loko, the caffeinated alcoholic malt beverage?

I feel the kids need a fighting chance at maturing and growing up as individuals without mind altering chemicals steering them away from their true path. I can only hope that we remind ourselves, our childrens future is prepared by our actions in the home.
What do we expect? We’ve started down the slippery slope by allowing medical marijuana to reach the ballot box. Name one other “medicine” allowed for use via ballot?
The same people who initiated medical marijuana are against McDonald’s Happy Meals for lack of nutrition.
It’s time for adults to step up and be adults. Stop waiting for the Government to force responsibility. Be responsible for your own actions, and those of your children.
Ifeel like it is never ending and personally my child is going to do what ever till they are mature enough or hit rock bottom not the court, Chins , counseling, schools, not being an enabler whatever sometimes they just have to grow up and learn the hard way and it hurts we can only try so hard. Its all political and money feeds the system.
Marijauna usage is nothing compared to Four Loko. Alcohol consumption harms the body 100X’s worse than any form of marijuana (not a real fact). The fact that a human body can “black out” and even die from alcohol consumption is proof enough that it is much more dangerous for children then marijuana.
Now I do agree that a young growing brain should not take any for of substance, including caffeine. But the effects of Marijuana are not bad and are only glorified by people who are affraid it. They associate the use of pot with minorities and criminals. If we want to outlaw pot, get rid of alcohol too. Or just get rid of alcohol and legalize pot.
Thank you, Bill. I don’t see why so many people turn their backs to marijuana and automatically discredit it from being a good thing by demonizing it. If you smoke, relax, and just enjoy it, maybe then you’ll realize that it isn’t that big of a deal and your child shouldn’t be a viewed as a disappointment because they smoke weed. Try talking to them instead of interrogating them. My father is relaxed on drinking and smoking. My mother can’t stand the thought of me smoking, but she drinks more than I do. It’s so much easier to talk to my father because he doesn’t judge me for smoking because he does it too, not to mention we have smoked together before.
Why don’t you just ask your son/daughter if they could get some good (better quality, grown better, etc) for the both of you and smoke a bowl or two? I GUARANTEE that you will both talk together easier than you ever have and it will be a great bonding experience. Weed is a plant. No chemicals, no sprays, nothing. I’ve seen plants in front of my own two eyes and they were grown from little seeds with water, soil, and light. Trust me. Weed is just weed. It get you high and makes you feel happy about everything in your life and that’s definitely not a bad thing in my book.
why is everyone looking down on marijuana? i want all of you parents and concern family member to think for a second alright when you have a head ache you take a aspren when you have a cough you take cough medicine when your hurting you take pain killers i want you to right now and look up how many people have died taking pain killers and this so called medicine and your calling marijuana bad after the 8 thousand years of use there has never been a single death caused by marijuana tabacco alone kills thousands yearly and causing many kinds of cancer yet mariuana is ridiculed and said to kill you say well theres many people in rehab for marijuana and they truly belive that these kids are facing a addiction no thats wrong when people are caught with marijuana they are given a choice jail or rehab witch would you chose? i want the world to know marijuana is not a drug its just medicene thats grown in the bible it states “a 9 leafed plant healling plant” marijuana is that plant so world my dream is for you to accept marijuana thank you
I bet we see marijuana legalized in 5 years or less.
Legalization is the best thing that could happen right now, for so many reasons. I think it’s coming soon.
