A new marijuana-flavored soda is being produced.

Coca-Cola once called itself "the pause that refreshes," but a new line of marijuana sodas may be known as "the pot that refreshes."

Pictured are five different flavors of Canna Cola: Doc Weed, Orange Kush, Grape Ape, Sour Diesel and Canna Cola.

Canna Cola is a new soft drink that will contain THC, the active ingredient in marijuana. The creative force behind Canna Cola, a commercial artist from California named Clay Butler, has claimed to have never smoked marijuana in his life. He just thought it would be fun to market a marijuana soft drink.

The drink will come in 12-ounce bottles that contain 35 to 65 grams of THC. Butler says that the marijuana flavor is negligible, and that other competitors with higher THC levels have a strong aftertaste that he was trying to avoid. Canna Cola will be licensed to companies in states that allow medical marijuana dispensaries (like California).

Considering that the average dose of medical marijuana is about 25 milligrams, it's no surprise there's quite a buzz surrounding the product, which is scheduled to debut in Colorado cannabis collectives in February and cost $10 to $15 per bottle.

He saw the idea of creating and marketing a marijuana soda as the perfect branding experiment.READ MORE ...
