Pass The Cream And The Cannabis Coffee, Please
Hitting the market soon is a new type of coffee pot ... or, more to the point, pot coffee.
In the wake of California's legalization of medical marijuana and its green light for recreational marijuana use, San Diego tech-oriented entrepreneurs have come up with a new wake-up call: cannabis coffee pods. Each pod has 10 milligrams of THC, marijuana's active ingredient.
Called Brewbudz, the marijuana flower-containing Arabica coffee beans pods are designed to pop into your Keurig machine to brew cannabis coffee. (Or, cannabis cocoa for non-coffee lovers.) Its website says French vanilla and hazelnut flavors are next.
The San Diego-based company, Cannabiniers, introduced its Brewbudz at the recent Hightimes Cannabis Cup in Nevada, touting its java as ideal in social situations where smoking isn't appropriate. The price? $7 a pop — not too far afield from a cup of Starbucks.
