Hudson Valley / THC Drinks
Pillar
Cannabis Beverages & the THC Drink Scene
THC-infused beverages are the fastest-growing category in New York's legal cannabis market — and Hudson Valley is in the thick of it, with Harney Brothers sourcing cannabis from Millerton and brands like Ayrloom, Tune, and High Peaks spreading across dispensary shelves. This pillar covers the drink scene as it's actually unfolding up here: which shops carry the best selection, which local brands are worth trying first, and why a growing share of Hudson Valley adults are swapping cocktails for cannabis beverages at Friday dinners. Flavors and occasions only — we don't do medical claims.
