Coke to make marijuana drink

Coca-Cola announced its interest in a statement on Monday, responding to a report from BNN Bloomberg that said it was in talks with Canada’s Aurora Cannabis Inc (ACB.TO) to develop drinks infused with cannabidiol (CBD), the non-psychoactive chemical found in marijuana.

Coke would join a rush by major alcohol makers and a cigarette company to test the cannabis market and find partners ahead of the Oct. 17 launch of legal recreational marijuana in Canada.

Coke and Aurora, in separate statements, each said they were interested in cannabidiol-infused beverages but would not comment on any specifics or talks. Aurora’s stock soared 17 percent, while Coke’s edged up slightly.

The CBD drinks would likely aim to ease inflammation, pain and cramping, the BNN report said here&_gucid=&_gup=twitter&_gsc=gQCuZEQ.

Wells Fargo analyst Bonnie Herzog called the news “an exciting potential development” as it would take Coke into another fast-growing healthier segment following last month’s $5.1 billion deal for Costa Coffee and expand cannabis-infused drinks in the area of functional wellness products.

The CBD products likely would be different from those produced by alcohol makers, which would likely give drinkers a buzz from tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the main psychoactive chemical in marijuana.

Beer makers Constellation Brands (STZ.N), Molson Coors (TAP.N) and Heineken (HEIN.AS) are all playing in the market for cannabis products. For example, Heineken’s craft beer Lagunitas recently launched Hi-Fi Hops, a beer-flavored sparkling water with THC and CBD.

“The THC beverages probably sit better with the beer makers, and maybe CBD fits better with Coke, in terms of playing off the health trend,” said Liberum analyst Nico von Stackelberg.

Cowen analyst Vivien Azer cited growing consumer interest in CBD and said its properties lend the ingredient well to a sports recovery drink. She said she would not be surprised to hear of a similar deal by PepsiCo for its Gatorade drink. Pepsi did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the cannabis market.

Moving into this area carries little reputational risk for Coke, said Liberum’s von Stackelberg.


“If they came out with a THC-infused drink, that’s a different question,” he said.

A similar move from Pepsi with with CBD seemingly a good complement to their market share-leading Gatorade franchise.

Get back to use when they put cocaine back into Coca Cola

id buy that

So the "Jews" keep drugs illegal until they are ready to make money off of it. They through your brothers into prison they took from you to line their pockets with the prison industrial complex. The "Jew" lies to you and makes you live as slaves. All your free lives. They will not be able to hide when everyone sees them as they really are.

Holy shit! Now I can get obese AND retarded at the same time!

The only way it could be more effective is if there was a version with alcohol instead.

I just cannot imagine the demographic they're targeting here

da joooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosssssssssssssssssssssss

Fuck off you stupid nigger

Welcome to the future libertarians want.

Libertarians want Jews to fuck off and stop lobbying the government for regulations so we can live off our own land and drink milk from our own fucking cow. If a kike comes on my property I get to shoot him. Sounds pretty good to me.

Wouldn't they also let jews build Chinese factories right next to your house and if you complain, then too bad?

>Wouldn't the libertarians not respect your property rights? The Libertarians would probably even issue permits allowing arbitrary levels of pollution!
Basing environmental policy on property rights is one of the things libertarians got right without even trying. This whole "tragedy of the commons environment" shit evaporates once private property is respected.

If those Chinese factories make too much noise that carries over to my property, or if they pollute my well water, they violated NAP and I can kill them all

The only response you'll ever get.

My bad, also "something something Reddit."

When you learn to thresh the wheat from the chaff, you will find that a good half of the posters on this board aren't Zig Forumslacks at all. Most of them aren't 'shilling' for or against anything, they just like stirring the pot and keeping us agitated.

I, uh, I'm on the wrong board.

Basically

LOL WHAT A JOKE. There are few things worse for you than a can of coke or pepsi. They'll also undoubtedly use the shitty, hemp-derived CBD instead of from the potent trichomes of the flower buds. Pure marketing gimmick.

they hate this info coming out

neat!
