As unbelievable as it may sound, hangover proof wine is HERE!
Stress, anxiety, depression—We’re all pretty familiar with these concepts, and unfortunately many adults regularly feel their debilitating burden. However, while society is growing more comfortable discussing and accepting mental illness as a universal struggle, it’s also fair to say that the COVID-19 pandemic caught us completely off guard. Facing an unprecedented new reality, we were unprepared for the year-long battle that was about to occur. And it took it’s toll on us.
Unable to see family and friends, or participate in the activities that used to help us unwind, have caused many of us to turned to alcohol to de-stress and maintain a semblance of sanity.

While a glass of wine here and there can be relaxing, delicious, and even heart-healthy, long-term alcohol usage can have detrimental effects on your mental and physical health. The CDC seriously warns of the risks associated with long-term alcohol use in adults.
In fact, the Center for Disease Control considers excessive alcohol consumption to be one of the four primary preventable risk factors that contribute to a myriad of preventable chronic diseases.
Safety First: Alcohol vs. Cannabis
The medical community agrees that cannabis is a safer substance than marijuana. Alcohol consistently ranks as one of the most addictive substances available with an extremely high risk of overdose or death. As Newseek pointed out, Not only is cannabis less addictive than alcohol, there is absolutely no risk of overdose.
Cannabis may be healthier alternative to alcohol, but what’s the best way to consume Cannabis?
Cannabis More Than 100 Times Safer Than Alcohol, Study Finds
You are 114 times more likely to die from overdosing on alchohol than you are from cannabis, a recent study has found.
The report, published in Scientific Reports journal, compared the risks associated with 10 substances using the margin of exposure approach. This method compares a lethal dose of the drug with the dosage typically taken by recreational users. Substances tested included alcohol and nicotine, as well as illicit drugs including cocaine, heroin, ecstasy (MDMA) and methamphetamines.
It found that the mortality risk to individuals posed by cannabis was approximately 114 times less than that of alcohol. In fact, cannabis was the only substance to be classified as ‘low risk’. In contrast, alcohol posed the highest risk to individuals and was ranked alongside nicotine, cocaine and heroin as ‘high risk’.
Smoking Cannabis isn’t All that Healthy
As the popularity of cannabis grows, due in large part to advancements in science and social culture, there are still concerns amongst potential new users about smoking cannabis.
Smoking marijuana poses some health risks comparable to that of smoking cigarettes. Smoking is not an option for individuals with asthma, allergies or other respiratory issues. The feared stigma of being a “pothead.”
Ingesting Cannabis has a Dark Side
Edibles are an option for many people who are adverse to smoking cannabis, however, edibles have risks to consider as well:
Effects take a long time to “kick in” which can lead to overconsumption and an awful experience.
Many edibles are high in calories and usually heavy in sugar.
Dosages can be hard to determine
For people interested in trying cannabis, but not comfortable smoking or nervous about eating edibles, there is a new option that might be perfect: weed wine.
What is Weed Wine?
To put it simply, “weed wine” is exactly what it sounds like! It’s a delicious all natural, wine-like beverage that gets its “kick” from cannabis instead of alcohol! A water-soluble form of THC (the active compound in cannabis) is added to a non-alcoholic beverage base, allowing it to be quickly absorbed in the body—just like alcohol.
Due to the fast absorption rates, the effects of weed wine are felt in a manner of minutes—similar to your standard glass of wine. Weed wine, however, is completely alcohol-free leaving you with a 100% hangover proof beverage!
How is Weed Wine Made?
As far back as the 1940’s mechanical extraction has been used to separate the active compounds in cannabis from the plant itself, allowing for a wider variety of consumption methods. Essentially, the THC is distilled out of the cannabis plant using alcohol that is later completely removed. The end result of this process is THC in the form of oil droplets.
At this stage, the droplets are not water-soluble and are often used in baking or more traditional cannabis beverages. The problem with the THC droplets at this stage is if they are consumed, your body has to make them water-soluble via a long digestive process. Unfortunately, this can take hours and you won’t feel any effects until this process is fully completed. As a result, after not “feeling anything” for several hours you consume more (and more) and then finally when it kicks in, you have “launched yourself into outer space”. This is why cannabis edibles have not been a very popular form of consumption.

Which Weed Wine is Right for Me?
In order to choose the cannabis wine product that’s right for you, you’ll need to find a weed wine with an appealing beverage base! While there are only a few companies that produce this product in the United States, all but one company use the same process: dealcoholization.
Most weed wine makers start with a beverage base made from actual wine. The wine is then dealcoholized through a chemical process before THC is added through nanoemulsification. During this dealcoholization process, the chemical makeup of the grape wine base undergoes a massive transformation in order to ensure the product contains zero alcohol. Many of the tannins (which are responsible for wine’s flavor) are removed which leaves the wine without the great taste and mouth-feel that so many wine-lovers crave!
Sure, it’s great to have a fast acting hangover-free way to relax, but if your beverage doesn’t taste good…really, what’s the point?
Winner, Winner, Cannabernet with Dinner!
Checking more boxes than any other weed wine on the market, we liked the Sweet Dreams Vineyards product Cannabernet the best. It was the only natural, chemical-free hangover-proof cannabis alternative to alcohol not made with dealcoholized wine!
Because they started with a superfood base of pomegranates and blueberries, and not a grape-based wine, there is no need to dealcoholize the beverage. This leaves consumers with a delicious, low-calorie, full-bodied beverage that is 100% hangover free!
Sweet Dreams Vineyards also provides its customers with a wide variety of THC strengths so you are able to easily match your experience level with Cannabernet’s effects. So, not only does this product provide you with a delicious beverage that provides stress relief and feelings of euphoria, but it has:
Half the Calories of a traditional glass of wine
Is Fast Acting (like a glass of wine)
No Alcohol = No Hangover
However, even in states where marijuana is legalized for medical use, the unfair stigma that often surrounds being a cannabis user stops many people who are interested in trying it from actually trying it. . While becoming more and more socially acceptable, some folks still worry about how being spotted shopping for or using cannabis may affect their reputations.
Sweet Dreams Vineyards understands this common hesitation and, as a result, has opened a variety of locations in Arizona to meet the needs of all cannabis consumers —rookies and veterans alike! More importantly, as the result of the passage of the Arizona Cannabis Adult-Use voter initiative, the transaction is hassle free.
Arizona no longer requires a cannabis registration card!
All you need is a photo ID showing that you’re 21+
No personal information required!
No signature necessary!
Hangover proof wine is real, and it’s here!
Most things that sound “too good to be true” turn out to be such. But weed wine is not a myth—it’s a breakthrough. You can now revolutionize the way that you relax, cut down on calories and ensure that you’ll be at your best again tomorrow.
