They should go back to coke.

A big step towards normalization for sure but this is still hiding behind the medicinal benefits, as important as that aspect is.

You know this drink will be banned in a few countries, some might even boycott the company products altogether.

I wonder if they'd have to put any type of warning label on the drinks since CBD oil can cause some drowsiness, upset stomach, and diarrhea in certain people.

Normally a manufacturing company is legally obliged to place warnings when such content is used.

"At least when I smoked weed, it was illegal! Friggin' sissy millennials." Etc.

They still do. I believe they are the only non pharmaceutical company in america that can process coca.

This is gonna taste like garbage. But I still like that they're doing it.

Caffienated Cannibal Coke with CBD.

These drinks will have next to no effect. I see drinks like Hemp20 and that Swiss Hemp Iced Tea in Organic Food section of the grocery story all the time.

I bought a brand of sublingual CBD number of weeks back from local supplement store though and the sublingual has some pro-social effects although oddly increased my tension headache so had to stop (although for some this seems to help). Anyway, the trigeminal nerve and vagus nerve have an interplay so may help with some more than others. It's only active in the brain for around 4 hours but sits in the body for about 4 days afterwards so caution is of course due if taking any other medications as I've heard the unactive CBD can inhibit metabolism of certain pharmaceuticals making their half lives way longer if utilize a certain enzyme route in the liver to be excreted.

Oh yeah! Me too. I thing it's a good marketing. Actually, CBD oil taste like garbage, it's true. But I tried gummies, like from Area52.com and they are quite ok, even sweet. I think it won't change real taste of Coke much.

Next one will be StarBucks I think

100% true
