Herbal Oasis Social Tonic was awarded in the "Other Infused Beverage Products" category, a distinction that highlights unique formats pushing the edge of THC beverage innovation. The recognition comes just four months after the brand's national launch, marking a fast ascent for a beverage positioned as a stylish, non-alcoholic alternative for social settings.
"We created Herbal Oasis for people looking for a better way to connect-as an alternative to alcohol," said Ronan Kelly, CEO of cbdM. "Winning this award validates what our community has been telling us: it tastes great, it feels great, and it fits the vibe."
Launched at the end of 2024, Herbal Oasis was inspired by the growing movement toward low-dose, social THC consumption, especially among health-conscious adults looking for alternatives to traditional cocktails or beer. Hemp-derived THC beverages are one of the fastest growing consumer beverage categories. Euromonitor International estimates sales of hemp-derived THC beverages more than doubled in 2024 and are projected to balloon to $4.1 billion by 2028.
Each can of Oasis combines hemp-derived THC, CBG, and functional mushrooms to create a vibrant, elevated experience-without regret. Oasis began hitting shelves in Alabama, Florida, and North Carolina in late March, with additional locations launching throughout spring and summer. Oasis is also available for nationwide delivery from www.herbaloasis.com.
The High Spirits Awards, founded by the creators of the L.A. Spirits Awards, evaluates products across 11 infused beverage categories. Winners are selected by a panel of experienced beverage professionals based on flavor, balance, packaging, and overall drinking experience. Medal designations range from Platinum to Bronze, with Best-in-Show honors reserved for the top of each category.
