Upstate Elevator Launches Groundbreaking Dual Kanna and Kava Beverage Line
In a significant expansion of its product offerings, Upstate Elevator, a renowned family-owned company based in Vermont, has unveiled its debut dual kanna and kava beverage line. This represents a novel step for the brand, traditionally recognized for its clean-crafted cannabis products. The new line introduces consumers to an array of zero-proof functional spritzes and sodas designed as a botanical alternative to alcoholic beverages and traditional cannabinoids.
Initially, the collection features two refreshing flavors:
Pink Grapefruit Uplift Spritz and
Blackberry Zinger Unwind Soda, with another flavor,
Lychee Blood Orange Uplift Spritz, set to launch soon. Each beverage is formulated with clinically studied ingredients, including Zembrin® kanna, noble kava root extract, and L-theanine. This thoughtful blend promises not only to refresh but also to support relaxation and mental clarity without the intoxicating effects associated with cannabis.
A New Category in Functional Beverages
As pioneers in introducing this dual infusion, Upstate Elevator is carving out a fresh niche in the functional beverage sector. Their innovative product line is entirely
alcohol-free,
THC-free, and made from organic ingredients, ensuring consumers receive a wholesome drink without any preservatives or artificial components. Each serving is crafted to provide a joyful and uplifting experience, reinforcing the brand's commitment to health-conscious alternatives.
Pink Grapefruit Uplift Spritz
This vibrant and sparkling spritz captures the essence of bright pink grapefruit, designed to uplift the mood and enhance social interactions. With its ingredients, including 50mg of Zembrin® kanna paired with 20mg of kava extract and 90mg of L-theanine, it strikes a balance of only 40 calories, making it a guilt-free indulgence.
Blackberry Zinger Unwind Soda
On the other hand, the Blackberry Zinger Unwind Soda offers a bold, calming experience. It intertwines kava's soothing properties with fruity blackberry and citrus flavors. Formulated with 100mg of kava extract, along with 15mg of Zembrin® kanna and 90mg of L-theanine, this soda serves as a perfect evening companion, promoting a relaxed state of mind without the negative effects of alcohol.
Progress and Commitment to Quality
The launch of these drinks marks an exciting evolution for Upstate Elevator, expanding its product portfolio beyond its well-known cannabinoid offerings while retaining its mission to create high-quality wellness products derived from nature. Dylan Raap, the founder and CEO, emphasized the changing landscape in the hemp industry and the importance of remaining innovative: "Consumers are ready for functional beverages they can actually feel that extend beyond cannabinoids... Our new kanna and kava drinks allow us to explore new botanical ingredients and create a functional beverage experience that offers more options."
Shoppers can find Pink Grapefruit Uplift Spritz and Blackberry Zinger Unwind Soda on
