The best THC seltzer is the one that matches your dose and your reason for drinking it. A first-timer wants 5mg or less. Someone counting calories wants a zero-calorie can. Someone who already knows their tolerance may want 10mg or more. Below are our picks for each, based on each brand’s published specs: THC per can, other cannabinoids, calories and ingredients.
Disclosure: HempBeverages.com sells every seltzer on this list. Picks are based on published specs, not on which brands pay us more. Prices change often, so check each product page for the current price per can.

- Buzzn: 7.5mg THC seltzers made with real fruit juice, about 60 calories a can, in watermelon, strawberry and cherry.
Best functional THC seltzers: Enjoy Hemp
Enjoy Hemp builds each 10mg THC seltzer around a second ingredient: CBG (Euphoria), CBD (Bliss), CBN (Chill and Sleep), Lion’s Mane (Social) or 100mg caffeine (Energy). A functional variety pack covers Energy, Social and Sleep in one case.
Best 10mg seltzers for flavor
- Bolo: loud flavors (blue raz, sour apple, mango, waterberry) and a variety pack. A good fit if lighter seltzers taste too subtle to you.

- Alte: craft flavors such as watermelon basil jalapeño and blackberry lemon vanilla at 10mg, with 5mg cans too.
For experienced drinkers only
North Canna Extra Strength (30mg THC + 30mg CBD) and Enjoy Hemp’s 50mg seltzers are strong doses, several standard drinks’ worth of THC in one can. Treat half a can or less as a full serving and wait at least two hours before having more.
