Soda Pot: California Company Creates 'Canna Cola'Jan 27, 2011 – 4:16 PM
David Moye - AOL News ... each 12-ounce bottle of "Canna Cola" will contain 35 to 65 milligrams of THC,
the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.
Considering that the average dose of medical marijuana is about 25 milligrams,
it's no surprise there's quite a buzz surrounding the product, which is scheduled to
debut in Colorado cannabis collectives in February and cost $10 to $15 per bottle.
Although Butler says he's never smoked pot in his life, he told the Santa Cruz Sentinel
that he loves branding and was intoxicated by the concept of "how Snapple or Coca-Cola
or Minute Maid would make a marijuana beverage, if they ever chose to do it."
"You look at all the marijuana products out there, and they are so mom-and-pop,
hippie-dippy and rinky-dink,"he said. "If someone can put every color on the rainbow on it, they do.
If they can pick the most inappropriate and unreadable fonts, they will. And there's marijuana leaves
on everything. It's a horrible cliché in the industry."
Although Canna Cola does include marijuana leaves in the logo, Butler believes his rendition --
a leaf made of bubbles to suggest soda pop -- is way more buzz worthy than those of competitors.
"A lot of medical marijuana patients in San Diego are younger and, for them, we sell a variety of
cannabis Kool-Aids that do really well."
