Blood orange & rosemary THC spritz

Blood orange, maple and rosemary, poured over ice with Cann Classic Blood Orange Cardamom.

What gives it THC

Cann Classic · Blood Orange Cardamom

One 8 fl oz / 237 mL can. Added cold after the juice and ice. Match the actual can to the ingredient list below.

California adult-use example, 21+. Specified can: 2 mg THC + 4 mg CBD. This quantity is an ingredient reference, not personal intake guidance.

Blood orange does most of the work here. A small rosemary sprig adds aroma, while a little maple rounds out the juice. Build the glass cold and pour the carbonated drink last. There's no syrup to cook and no reason to reach for a shaker.

Make it step by step.

Ingredients

Tick off what you have ready.

Equipment

  • 16 fl oz / 475 mL glass
  • Measuring spoon or small measuring jug
  • Long spoon

Steps

  1. Read the can before opening it. Confirm the exact flavor, 8 fl oz size, cannabinoid amounts and local product instructions. Keep it beside a glass clearly identified as containing THC. If the label differs from the ingredient specification, use a recipe written for that product instead.

  2. Stir the blood orange juice and maple syrup together in the glass. Add ice. Press the rosemary sprig lightly between clean fingers to release its aroma; leave the woody stem intact.

  3. Slowly pour the Cann down the side of the glass. Give it one gentle stir; do not shake or whisk. Add the orange slice and rosemary sprig. Serve promptly with the labeled can beside the glass.

Ingredient notes

Timing and yield

Times and yields are estimates. Afterlo has not kitchen-tested this recipe.

Want the same flavors without THC?

Use 237 mL plain sparkling water in place of the entire canned drink. Keep that version separately identified. It will be less sweet and less spiced than the Cann version; adjust the ordinary juice and maple to taste.

The can is the reference

Cann describes its classic 8 fl oz drink as containing 2 mg THC and 4 mg CBD. Check both figures on the actual can. Hi Boys, Roadies, concentrates and other formats are not interchangeable here. The glass uses one identified can; that is an ingredient specification, not a recommendation to consume the whole drink. Added juice or ice does not remove its THC.

California, adults 21+

This example is scoped to California's licensed adult-use market. Check current local and property rules and the locally sold product. The brand's online hemp store is a different sales channel. Serve only to an informed adult who has chosen THC, with the original labeled can beside the glass. California DCC: what's legal

Keep it separate

Make one clearly identified glass at a time. Keep cannabis products locked in childproof storage, away from children and pets. Edible effects can be delayed and unpredictable; this recipe gives no repeat-serving schedule. CDC: edible cannabis and poisoning

Alcohol and driving

Use alcohol-free ingredients, including any syrup. Do not add spirits, alcoholic bitters or more THC products. Do not drive after using cannabis; the recipe does not establish when driving is safe. CDC: cannabis and driving
