Chill Out with a Spicy, Refreshing New CBD Sparkling Beverage from Upstate Elevator

The team here at Upstate Elevator Supply Co. is excited to announce the release of our latest — extremely delicious, if we do say so ourselves — CBD drink: the African Ginger & Mexican Lime CBD Sparkling Beverage. Each twelve-ounce can is sweetened with organic blue agave syrup and contains 6 mg of nanoencapsulated hemp extract. Our proprietary nanoencapsulation method encapsulates CBD into tiny micellar structures for maximum absorption, potency and stability, so your beverage stays consistent — that means you’ll never find oil floating on the top or particulate matter on the bottom.

Dylan Raap, Upstate Elevator Supply Co.’s CEO, said research and development of the CBD sparkling beverage formulation took over six months to perfect. “This product was motivated by a strong desire to create a fun, approachable and exceedingly delicious sparkling beverage centered around the CBD molecule. We took our time to really dial in the formulation and I think we absolutely nailed it.”

The recipe is a unique blend of spicy, rich ginger from the Ivory Coast and tart, refreshing lime from Mexico. This particular blend of carefully sourced ingredients is inspired by the traditional West African drink, “Gnamakoudji.” Gnamakoudji is a powerful drink made of ginger root mixed with lime and sugar that is often used as an expectorant, pain reliever and body warmer. The recipe is adapted to be perfectly balanced and delicious with a truly unique ginger zing that picks you up while the CBD chills you out.

Upstate Elevator Supply Co. partnered with Alice and the Magician, another Burlington, VT company, to develop the all-natural, GMO-free, non-alcoholic CBD beverage. Alice and the Magician is best known for its handcrafted flavor elixirs and aromatic mists, all made from natural, organic and wild-crafted botanicals. Upstate’s African Ginger & Mexican Lime CBD Sparkling Beverage is now available for wholesale purchase statewide in Vermont via Farrell Distributing.

“We are proud to partner with Upstate Elevator Supply Co. to distribute their high-quality Vermont-made CBD beverages,” says Jeff Baker, Curator of the Curriculum for Farrell Distributing. “We find the CBD beverage industry to be very exciting and look forward to growing the category here in the Green Mountain State.”
