Forget the beer cooler — THC beverages are the MVP of Super Bowl Sunday 2026.
Super Bowl parties have always been about three things: great food, good company, and cold drinks. But in 2026, there’s a new player on the field — THC beverages. Whether you’re looking to skip the hangover, try something new, or just vibe differently this game day, hemp-derived THC drinks are changing how America celebrates the big game.
At 8th Wonder, we’ve been at the forefront of the THC beverage revolution, and we’re here to break down why THC seltzers and infused drinks deserve a spot in your Super Bowl spread.
What Are THC Beverages?
THC beverages are drinks infused with hemp-derived Delta-9 THC — the same compound found in cannabis, but sourced from federally legal hemp. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, these beverages are legal in most states as long as they contain less than 0.3% THC by dry weight.
Think of them like a craft beer or hard seltzer, but instead of alcohol, you get a smooth, controllable buzz from THC. They come in a variety of flavors and dosages, making them perfect for everything from casual sipping to full-on party mode.
Why Are People Choosing THC Beverages Over Alcohol?
- No hangover: Wake up Monday morning ready for work, not regretting that last beer
- Lower calories: Most THC seltzers clock in under 30 calories per can
- Precise dosing: Know exactly how much you’re consuming with each drink
- Fast-acting: Feel the effects in 15-30 minutes, similar to alcohol timing
- Social and familiar: Crack open a can just like any other drink — no stigma, no hassle
Why THC Beverages Are Perfect for Super Bowl Parties
1. Everyone Can Join In
Not everyone drinks alcohol. Whether your guests are sober-curious, health-conscious, or just want an alternative, THC beverages give everyone at the party something exciting to sip on. They’re the ultimate inclusive party drink.
2. Keep the Energy Going Without the Crash
We’ve all been there — by the fourth quarter, half the party is half-asleep from too many beers. THC beverages deliver a light, uplifting buzz that keeps the energy going through halftime, the commercials, and overtime if it comes to that.
3. They’re a Conversation Starter
Nothing gets people talking like cracking open a THC seltzer at a party. “Wait, that’s legal?” Yes. Yes it is. And it’s delicious. Your Super Bowl party instantly becomes the most memorable one on the block.
4. Pair Perfectly with Game Day Food
Wings, nachos, sliders — THC beverages complement game day food without the bloating that comes with heavy beers. Plus, let’s be honest, THC and snacks have always been a legendary combo.
How to Serve THC Beverages at Your Super Bowl Party
Throwing a Super Bowl party with THC drinks? Here are some tips to make it a touchdown:
Set Up a THC Beverage Bar
Create a dedicated station with different flavors and dosages. Label everything clearly so guests can choose their vibe — from microdose (2-5mg) for a light buzz to full dose (10mg+) for those who want to really enjoy the game.
Offer Options for Everyone
Keep regular drinks available too. The best party is one where everyone has choices. Stock your cooler with THC seltzers alongside sparkling water and sodas.
Start Low, Go Slow
If your guests are new to THC beverages, recommend starting with a lower dose. The effects kick in within 15-30 minutes, so there’s no need to rush. It’s a marathon, not a sprint — just like the game.
Chill Them Like You Would Any Drink
THC beverages taste best cold. Toss them in the cooler alongside everything else. They look, feel, and drink just like any premium seltzer or craft drink.
