Behind the Science
What is Delta 9?
Is it really the same as THC?
Yes! Hemp-derived THC and cannabis-derived THC are chemically identical. Your body doesn’t care where it came from – it just recognizes THC as THC and processes it the same way.
That means you’re getting the same effects, the same good vibes, and the same smooth experience – just in a more widely accessible form.
Why Drinking THC
Feels Different from Eating It
Ever noticed how a THC seltzer hits faster than a brownie? That’s because your body processes THC differently when you drink it versus when you eat it.
Traditional edibles, like gummies or baked goods, take a scenic route through your digestive system, meaning they can take up to two hours to kick in.
But THC-infused beverages like hi Seltzer work on a whole different timeline – one that gets you to the fun part faster.
MEET NANO-EMULSIFICATION
In simple terms, nano-emulsification breaks THC down into tiny, water-compatible particles. This means your body absorbs it faster (typically within 10 to 20 minutes) so you don’t have to sit around wondering, “Is it working yet?”
How Much THC is Right for You?
From microdoses to moderate highs,
THC is all about knowing what works for you.
• Microdose (1-2mg THC): Perfect for relaxation, or slight mood elevation
• Low dose (2-5mg THC): A gentle high, great for social settings or winding down.
• Moderate dose (5-10mg THC): Stronger effects, better for more experienced users or a cozy night in.
• High dose (10mg+ THC): Great for seasoned cannabis lovers but may feel too intense for beginners.
Since hi Seltzer contains 5mg of THC per can, it falls in the low to moderate range –
just enough to feel good, not enough to overwhelm.
How Long Will It Last?
Here’s the best part about THC beverages: They kick in faster and fade out sooner than traditional edibles. With a hi Seltzer, you can expect:
- Onset time: 10-20 minutes (thanks to nano emulsification!)
- Peak effects: 30-60 minutes in
- Total duration: 60-90 minutes, depending on your metabolism
