How Are Cannabis Beverages Different From Cannabis Edibles?
The biggest difference, besides the form factor of liquid versus something you suck or chew, is how they’re metabolized in the body. Cannabis beverages use nanoemulsion technology that breaks down cannabinoids for rapid absorption, with noticeable effects in 10 to 15 minutes. Cannabis edibles are metabolized in the liver and converted to a longer-lasting, more potent form, with effect onset up to 2 hours.
