THC Drinks
Where to Buy THC Beverages in Upstate NY
A dispensary-by-dispensary field guide to who carries the best THC drink selection across the Hudson Valley.
Not every dispensary in New York carries THC beverages at the same depth. Some stock twenty SKUs across six brands; others carry four SKUs from two brands. This matters when you're looking for a specific seltzer or building out a drink spread for an event. We mapped the Hudson Valley landscape by region.
Caveat: inventory changes. Hours change. This is a snapshot. When in doubt, call.
Kingston
Kingston has the Valley's widest THC beverage selection. Seven licensed dispensaries in a two-mile radius, and the competition has pushed everyone to stock real inventory.
The best seltzer selection in the Valley, full stop. Most Kingston dispensaries carry 15–20 beverage SKUs, including the full Ayrloom and Tune lines, High Peaks grapefruit and black cherry, Harney teas, and a rotating selection of smaller brands. If you're building a selection for a party, this is the destination.
A few specific notes: Uptown dispensaries tend to stock more premium and low-dose options; midtown shops carry more of the high-dose and value-tier stuff. For Harney products specifically, the uptown Kingston dispensaries are most reliable.
Hudson + Columbia County
Smaller dispensary count (3–4 active), but strong representation from premium brands. Hudson's dispensary customers skew toward the design-conscious, wine-drinking crowd, and the beverage inventory reflects that.
Expect 10–15 SKUs per shop. The Harney line is well-represented here (Millerton is just down the road, so the supply chain is tight). The hibiscus seltzer and the Earl Grey tea are usually in stock; the coffee is rotating.
Tune is more common in Hudson than in Kingston, it fits the local aesthetic. High Peaks is less common; Ayrloom is ubiquitous.
Beacon
Two licensed dispensaries in Beacon, with beverage selection that's grown considerably in 2025. Expect 10–12 SKUs per shop. Ayrloom and Tune are the anchors; Harney hibiscus appears occasionally; High Peaks is rare.
Beacon's weekend day-tripper volume has pushed the local dispensaries to stock for party-buying, cases of seltzer, multi-packs, and gift-style arrangements. If you're picking up for an event, Beacon shops are often more accommodating about bulk than Kingston shops.
Poughkeepsie
Poughkeepsie's 4+ licensed dispensaries serve the largest year-round population in the Valley, which means their inventory trends toward what sells consistently: the mid-dose Ayrloom and Tune options, less of the premium or micro-dose specialty. Expect 8–12 beverage SKUs per shop.
Best selection in Poughkeepsie for: mid-dose 5mg seltzers, flavored teas. Rare: the limited-release seasonal drops, artisanal tonic brands.
Westchester (southern Valley)
Westchester's dispensary footprint is dense (23+ active shops per the OCM directory), but beverage depth varies wildly. White Plains and Yonkers shops tend toward volume inventory; Peekskill and the smaller towns stock smaller but more curated beverage selections.
For Westchester specifically: the larger shops are the right call for common needs (Ayrloom, Tune, standard High Peaks). For harder-to-find products or brand-new drops, the smaller shops are often better because they're more opinionated about what they stock.
Rockland + Orange County
Emerging market. Dispensary count is growing (~20 active) but beverage selection is generally thinner. Expect 6–10 SKUs per shop; Ayrloom and Tune are reliable; anything else is a pleasant surprise.
If you're in Orange County and want a broader selection, the drive to Kingston (30–40 minutes) is usually worth it for bigger purchases. For a single can, any local dispensary is fine.
Delivery
Most licensed dispensaries in the Valley offer delivery within a 10–15 mile radius. For beverage orders specifically, delivery is more reliable than for flower, beverages hold up well in transit, don't require special storage, and come in easy-to-package cans.
A few notes:
- Most dispensaries require a $40+ minimum order for delivery
- Delivery windows run 1–3 hours; same-day is common
- 21+ ID is verified at drop-off
- Most dispensaries let you specify brand/SKU preferences with the order, if you want Ayrloom specifically, say so
For a party / event
Two rules for larger beverage orders (a 12+ case purchase):
(1) Call ahead 3–7 days. No dispensary keeps a full case of every SKU in stock. Call your preferred shop, tell them what you want, and give them time to stock up.
(2) Buy from one shop if possible. Inventory systems are per-shop; receipt reconciliation is per-shop; if something's off, returns are per-shop. Mixing orders across three dispensaries multiplies the logistics.
For cannabis weddings specifically, see our Cannabis Weddings in the Hudson Valley guide, it covers event-scale beverage procurement in detail.
What we'd change
The biggest gap in the Valley's current THC beverage distribution is consistency, a given SKU can be in stock at three dispensaries today and none tomorrow. Brands are still figuring out demand; dispensaries are still figuring out what to stock. In 18–24 months, we expect this to smooth out. For now: call first.
