The holiday season is officially here and it’s my favorite time of the year! From the decorations, to watching A Christmas Story like I’ve never seen it before, and eating so much delicious food. Thanksgiving this time around came with anticipation since my brother decided to host (who is an artist by day and a master chef by night).

Usually myself along with family and friends indulge in bottles of wine and alcohol as we enjoy our time together but we decided to try something different. Cannabis infused beverages have been gaining more attention lately, with a survey by NCSolutions confirming that a third of Americans are trying to drink less alcohol. The fact that alcohol drinking is decreasing while cannabis consumption is increasing, there’s clear reasons how the THC-infused drink market will hit north of $27 billion in the next 10 years. People are tired of being drunk.

So to keep up with this trend we brought over a bottle of Artet Aperitif. They offer products that are alcohol-free made “with citrus notes, backed by ginger, juniper, cardamom, among other botanicals, it’s complex and delightful.” At first sip you are immediately met with a bold sense of ginger and a lingering floral taste that keeps you guessing each flavor.

If you’re wondering how we got the dose just right, this beautifully-made bottle came with a measured pourer that is 2.5mg of THC per serving. This drink tastes great both cold or hot, on the rocks or mixed with a club soda. The possibilities to enhance your next dinner experience with this beverage is unlimited. If you want to be the star of the dinner table, bring a bottle of Artet and let’s eliminate hangovers one sip at a time. Cheers!
