The days are getting shorter but the Olala ohana (family) wants to help you hold onto summer just a little bit longer with some refreshing cannabis-infused drinks and mocktails that’ll keep you on island time, no matter what the season.
Olala is a cannabis-infused soda brand crafted for Californians, so it’s safe to say we love summers more than most. One look at our Instagram feed with its bright colors and beautiful beach scenes and you’re transported to a Hawaiian-state-of-mind.
In Hawaiian, Olala means “sun-kissed” so you know our drinks are the go-to cannabis soda for California summers. And with summer coming to an end, we know you want to soak up all the vibes which is why we made a list of seven cannabis-infused mocktails to enjoy. We modified a few alcoholic drinks by swapping alcohol for an Olala cannabis beverage and made your dosing easily adjustable to create a perfectly personalized summer mocktail.
Before whipping up your 420-friendly mocktails, we’d suggest serving each drink chilled or over ice. Avoid heating the drinks in any way because it will degrade the cannabinoids in the soda and might make them less effective.
Here are the must-try cannabis soda recipes of the summer featuring Olala’s island-inspired flavors: Mango, Guava, Orange Cream and Blue Raspberry.
Taste the summer with a mango cooler using Olala’s mango soda. Simply blend the ingredients for a refreshing cannabis-infused drink perfect for the pool or a backyard sesh.

Sugar or syrup to taste
Directions:

Our mango soda is just sweet enough to make this a delicious summer drink, but adding a bit of tart and tang from fresh citrus makes it ultra tasty.
This is the cannabis-lover’s twist on a classic cocktail: the mojito. This delicious cannabis-infused, non-alcoholic mojito is perfect for a late-night treat or a daytime refresher.

Cherry for garnish
