Can you consume CBD and alcohol together?
Long answer short, YES! There is no evidence that CBD and alcohol can’t be consumed together. Early studies suggest that CBD actually lowers the amount of alcohol in your circulation. Watch this space for more research in this exciting emerging category.
One of the positive effects we love about CBD is its anti-anxiety properties, which is awesome when fighting the ‘Sunday scaries’ or ‘beer fear’ after a heavy night (it’s important to note that drinking large quantities of alcohol is not advisable).
But, beyond these potential benefits, we simply love cocktails that use our INTUNE CBD drinks! Whether Grapefruit & Mint with Whiskey, Elderflower & Hops with Gin, or Pomegranate & Ginger with Rum, our sparkling botanical drinks are a great addition to any night. Keep reading to find some of our favourite cocktail recipes using our refreshing drinks.
Swap booze for CBD drinks
INTUNE CBD drinks are also a great alternative to alcohol. All of our cocktails can be made with alcohol-free spirit alternatives, or you can simply pop a chilled can of our Great Taste Award-winning CBD drinks and enjoy it solo. They won’t make you high, they won’t make you tired and they won’t give you a sugar rush.
CBD’s effect is different for everyone but we have designed INTUNE CBD drinks so they’re perfectly balanced and suited to be enjoyed multiple times of day on different occasions from at your desk to the dancefloor. The best way to find out how INTUNE CBD drinks can fit into your life is to give them a go!
Swing it, shake it, move it, make it!
