Where can i buy recess cbd drink
CBD has emerged as a craze, with companies creating everything from body lotion and batch scrubs to gummy snacks and dog treats. The trend is even showing up at Hudson Valley restaurants, where County Fare in Wappingers Falls serves two cocktails with CBD.
Founded in October 2018, Recess was launched with an eye towards anxious, aesthetic-obsessed millennials, aiming to target their need for calm, cool and collected beverages. Founder Ben Witte has positioned the brand as a natural alternative to caffeine, with its six delicious flavors infused with hemp extract, ginseng and adaptogens to ease stress and boost focus and creativity.
The company's original Recess line of drinks contains 10mg of broad spectrum hemp extract. Depending on the flavor, these drinks contain combinations of magnesium-l-threonate* and botanicals like l-theanine, lemon balm and American ginseng.
Fans of Recess say they can use the drinks to help them feel centered and mellow throughout the day, whether it's before work anxiety, a post-work moment of quiet, or as an alcohol alternative. Despite uncertainty about the legal status of CBD-infused products, consumers have embraced these drinks and are using them to get through their busy days.
In terms of price, each Recess Mood drink costs around what a beer does. The beverage is primarily a sparkling water, but with small doses of hemp extract added for a calming effect.
The Recess Mood line is still growing, according to Witte, who said he's on track to make well over 50% of his sales from the product by the end of 2022. Several grocery chains have started carrying the drink, including Albertsons and Safeway, as well as CVS and Fresh Thyme.
