Natural Flavors with Zero Sugar and Only 25 Calories
NEW YORK, March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Canopy Growth
Corporation ("Canopy Growth" or "Company") (TSX: WEED) (NASDAQ:
CGC), a world-leading diversified cannabis, hemp, and vaporization
device company, has entered the high-potential U.S. CBD beverage
category with the launch of Quatreau, a premium ready-to-drink
CBD-infused sparkling water. The stateside launch follows the
successful 2020 rollout of Canopy Growth's CBD-infused beverages in
Canada, where Quatreau is now the
top-selling ready-to-drink CBD beverage.
Quatreau sparkling water contains 20 mg of premium, U.S. grown
hemp-based CBD and one of four refreshing flavors. With an MSRP of
$3.99 per 12-ounce can, Quatreau is a
functional zero-sugar drink that delivers a natural, low calorie
beverage alternative at an accessible price point.
Product SKUs available at launch will include:
- Quatreau CBD-infused Sparkling Water in Cucumber + Mint
- Quatreau CBD-infused Sparkling Water in Passionfruit +
Guava
- Quatreau CBD-infused Sparkling Water in Ginger + Lime

"We have proven our beverage strategy in Canada, where we are currently the market
share leader in CBD-infused ready-to-drink beverages, said Canopy
Growth President and Chief Product Officer Rade Kovacevic.
"Beverages are fueling growth in the CBD category and we believe
this product will resonate with U.S. consumers looking for a
naturally flavored, zero sugar option."
The launch of Quatreau in America coincides with an astrological
event known as the Age of Aquarius – the zodiac's water bearer,
which brings us to the cusp of a brand-new age. To celebrate this
serendipitous event, Quatreau has partnered with iconic celebrity
astrologist Susan Miller of
Astrology Zone on a digital and social campaign.
"Astrology has made a major pop culture comeback as people turn
to the stars for guidance during what has been an unsettling,
uncertain, and stressful time for many," said Canopy Growth Vice
President of Beverages Tara
Rozalowsky. "With this campaign, we're highlighting the role
functional ingredients like CBD can play in helping people manage
their stress, find moments of calm and prioritize wellness during
this once-in-a-lifetime transitional period."
Quatreau will be sold on Canopy's one-stop U.S. ecommerce
destination, www.shopcanopy.com.
