Drink Drank - Weed In a Can
"SLOW YOUR ROLL" PHOENIX – There’s a new drink being sold in Arizona — but why are people comparing it to pot? It’s called Drank, and it’s a 16-ounce soda drink that tastes sort of like grape soda. It’s the opposite of an energy drink. Drank calls itself an extreme relaxation product, so much so, that some have dubbed it “weed in a can.” Brandon Rycombel sells and delivers Drank to stores. He says, “I think a lot of people use that for stress relief. That’s what we use it for.” It contains melatonin, valerian root and rose hips, a remedy that supposedly slows you down. “In our day and age, we’ve got a lot of stress. The economy is bad. People need something to help them relax, bring them down,” says Rycombel. A spokesperson says it’s an alternative — not a substitute — for marijuana. “This isn’t going to get you into any trouble,” says Rycombel. “You can buy it in the store. It’s legal.”
