It takes something truly special to stand out from the crowd of simple seltzers in the world of cannabis beverages. Hippie Water has done just that, positioning itself as a premium, flavor-forward option for the discerning consumer. We decided to put their lineup to the test to see if the quality, taste, and experience justify the buzz. Let's dive into our full Hippie Water review.
The Flavors: A Taste of Quality
One of the most impressive aspects of Hippie Water is its commitment to real, interesting flavors, all while keeping calories and sugar remarkably low. Each can contains 5mg of Delta-9 THC, is made with 15% real juice, and has only 25-30 calories and 4-7 grams of sugar (depending on the flavor).
Winter Groove: Pomegranate & Blood Orange
Let's start with the absolute showstopper. In our opinion, Winter Groove is by far one of the best THC drink flavors we have ever had, especially for a low-sugar option. The blend of tart pomegranate and deep, rich blood orange is perfectly balanced, sophisticated, and incredibly refreshing. It tastes like a premium craft beverage, not just a cannabis drink.
Garden Party: Peach & Lemon with Ginger
This flavor is exactly what its name suggests. It’s more mellow and soft, with the sweet notes of peach and bright lemon leading the way, followed by a gentle, warming hint of ginger on the finish. It’s a smooth, easy-sipping flavor that feels perfectly suited for a relaxing day at the beach or a quiet afternoon in the garden.
Island Getaway: Watermelon & Lime with Chili
This is certainly the most adventurous flavor of the trio. The initial taste of watermelon and lime is pleasant, but it’s quickly followed by a distinct chili kick. It's an interesting and bold combination. While we appreciate the creativity, we have to be honest: we weren't feeling this one nearly as much as the others. The spicy finish might be perfect for some, but it didn't quite hit the mark for us.
The "Feel": How's the High?
With 5mg of Delta-9 THC per can, Hippie Water is designed to provide a pleasant, functional, and social buzz. We found the effects to be wonderfully clean and consistent with the flavor profiles.
- Winter Groove: The high was very bright and uplifting. It provided a clear-headed, happy euphoria that was perfect for creative tasks or engaging in conversation.
- Garden Party: This high was also bright but felt noticeably more relaxing. It was a gentle, calming buzz that melted away stress without causing drowsiness — truly ideal for unwinding.
- Island Getaway: The high from this flavor was very chill and mellow, leaning more into a relaxed body feeling.
Pricing and Overall Value
Hippie Water is priced as a premium product, meaning a can might be a bit more expensive than some other 5mg THC seltzers on the market. So, is it worth it?
In our opinion, absolutely. The improvement in taste and quality compared to a basic, single-note seltzer is significant. You are paying for real juice, complex flavor profiles, and a craft beverage experience. For consumers who prioritize taste and quality ingredients over just the lowest price per milligram, Hippie Water delivers exceptional value.
Ethereal Gold's Final Verdict
Hippie Water has earned its place as a top-tier cannabis beverage. It’s a fantastic choice for anyone tired of bland seltzers who wants a delicious, low-calorie, and low-sugar drink with a reliable 5mg THC effect. While the "Island Getaway" flavor might be divisive, the "Garden Party" is lovely, and the "Winter Groove" is an absolute must-try.
