As someone who has been alcohol-free for the past year, I’m always on the lookout for the best THC drinks. Cann has been my go-to when I need something on the chill side, while Cycling Frog has been my other favorite option for something a bit stronger. However, a new THC drink has become an instant favorite of mine: Amigos. 

The classic, two-toned, no-frills design struck me; it didn’t look conspicuous and became a new THC go-to.

Here’s why Amigos stands out among other popular, competing brands of THC drinks.

A DELIGHTFUL, NOSTALGIC FLAVOR

The first Amigos flavor tried was the pineapple soda. Within the first sip, I was taken back to my childhood, drinking pineapple Fanta—a soda I loved, but hadn’t had in over a decade. It felt so comforting, in a way that THC drinks rarely are. It also reminded me of Materva, a Cuban yerba mate soda I grew up drinking, crafted in Miami, where Amigos is made as well. Other THC drink brands I’ve tried recently have a medicinal or earthy aftertaste, so it’s always a plus when a beverage doesn’t taste like flower. 

After enjoying the pineapple flavor, I wanted to see if the strawberry soda was just as good. Thankfully, it was—if not even better. It reminded me of artisanal soda, with the strawberry flavor tasting natural instead of artificially sweetened. That’s because Amigos actually uses real fruit juice, which makes it taste much better than other leading brands. It’s 120 calories, which is about the same as a regular-sized can of soda, but that extra sugar is worth it here.

A CHILL HIGH, NO MATTER THE DOSAGE

Because it tastes like soda, I had to remember to pace myself, as both the pineapple and strawberry sodas are 50 mg. My tolerance fluctuates according to the brand, and my usual sweet spot is 10 mg. The Amigos soda cans are 16 oz, so I started with half to see how it would feel. They are made with hemp-derived THC, containing less than 0.3 percent Delta-9 THC. Amigos is fast-acting, making me feel a full-body chill within the first 20 minutes or so. After waiting an hour, I drank the whole thing. Even though it was 50 mg, which is labeled as a “mega dose,” the soda gave me a chill high—the type where I can relax and watch trashy reality TV without being reminded of deep-rooted trauma. Score! For those who aren’t used to such a high dosage, Amigos also offers a selection of tropical, cocktail-inspired flavors at 5 mg: Watermelon Mojito, Key Lime Margarita, and Cherry Limeade.

It’s the perfect THC drink when you’re looking for something on the stronger side but don’t want to sacrifice taste.
