CANNASA LAUNCHES UK’S FIRST CBD SOFT DRINK WITH ENCAPSULATED CBD-RICH FULL SPECTRUM HEMP OIL
BRITISH BRAND REVOLUTIONISES CBD MARKET WITH ALL-NATURAL BOTANICAL SOFT DRINK DESIGNED TO OPTMISE 21STCENTURY LIVING
Cannasa, a wellness-focussed brand on a mission to bring hemp into the mainstream, is set to change the perception of legal cannabis in Britain with the launch of a UK first: a lightly sparkling botanical soft drink with encapsulated CBD-rich full spectrum hemp oil.
The brand’s Botanical Raspberry Lemonade is a delicious, all-natural and refreshing functional drink designed to support and complement modern lifestyles. Cannasa is created using CBD and natural ingredients that support body and mind and is an aid to help individuals with busy, modern, urban lifestyles enhance their own personal wellbeing in a physical, mental and environmental sense.
CBD is a naturally occurring compound found in the resinous flower of hemp and is one of more than a hundred different phytocannabinoids that are unique to cannabis. It is a legal, non-psychedelic chemical that has a history of use dating back thousands of years.
Cannasa’s Botanical Raspberry Lemonade infuses spring water with rose, lime flower extracts, raspberry and lemon juices and 2mg of encapsulated CBD-rich hemp oil.
The brand is the first in the UK to use encapsulated CBD-rich full spectrum hemp oil in a soft drink, which ensures that its products are free from the taste and aroma of hemp. This formulation also has higher bioavailability relative to current cannabinoid-rich hemp oils and protects the oil from oxidation and UV degradation.
The Botanical Raspberry Lemonade is created using all-natural, vegan ingredients, including botanicals and fruits, carefully selected to complement the workings of CBD:
- Rose – Studies have shown that rose contains powerful antioxidants, has anti-inflammatory properties and may help to enhance mood.
- Lime Flower – With a long history as a folk remedy and medicine, lime flower is renowned for its health benefits. It is rich in antioxidant flavonoids, anti-inflammatory compounds and contains the active ingredient farnesol, an essential oil that has been used to improve cognitive function, reduce anxiety, boost mood and help with sleep.
- Raspberry – A natural source of B & C vitamins, manganese and antioxidants including quercetin, which can help to suppress the enzyme that produces the stress-inducing hormone cortisol.
- Lemon – Known for its therapeutic qualities, lemon contains a number of key vitamins and minerals, as well as potassium, which can stabilise hormones including adrenaline and cortisol to maintain the body’s balance.
Its clean and crisp flavour profile, combined with the fragrant, floral aroma of rose, makes Cannasa’s Botanical Raspberry Lemonade the ideal choice for a wide variety of occasions, whether it’s enjoyed al-fresco, al-desko or as an alternative to an alcoholic drink.
It is also a supportive pre- or post-workout drink that aligns with the ethos of restorative, grounding sports and practices, such as yoga, pilates and mediation, helping to enhance the experience of exercise.
The brand is committed to preserving an authentic and natural ingredient profile and as such, does not use artificial flavourings, preservatives or sweeteners. Cannasa’s sugar content is below the sugar levy and comes from natural beet sugar grown on UK farms.
The Botanical Raspberry Lemonade has 23 calories per 100ml bottle and is 100% vegan and gluten-free.
Cannasa’s Botanical Raspberry Lemonade is available to pre-order online from 17th April 2019 from www.cannasa.co.uk for £2.99/330ml.
