Beat the heat with a Bong Island Iced Tea, a fizzy, lifted twist on the classic Long Island that trades five liquors and regret for an energetic cannabis buzz.


This summer upgrade comes to us from Bong Appétit alum and canna-chef extraordinaire Vanessa Lovorato. Her brand-new cookbook, How to Eat Weed and Have a Good Time, is a colorful guide to getting high with fanciful twists on classic treats.


Unlike its boozy predecessor, this stoney mocktail features caffeinated black tea, a hefty dose of pot, and nostalgic notes of cola gummies and childhood wonder. It’s a bubbly, slightly sweet, slightly tart drink that hits with the refreshing satisfaction of soda and the relaxing body high of weed. AKA all the fun with none of the hangover.


Cycling Frog Iced Tea Lemonade


If you like the sound of such a high-flying beverage, but aren’t much of a mixologist, then these delightful drinks are up your alley. Snag a pack and let Cycling Frog do the bartending.


50mg THC | 4 pack
