SMITHS FALLS, ON, Feb. 3, 2022 /CNW/ - Canopy Growth Corporation

Daylight and Moonwave bring the first occasion-based cannabis
beverage portfolio from Ace Valley to the Canadian market.
Daylight, a zesty sparkling water provides a burst of uplifting
citrus flavor with a hint of ginseng, offering 2.5mg THC and 5mg
CBD, and is the perfect way to start the day. Moonwave is a berry
flavour sparkling water with a touch of lavender and vanilla
flavours, offering 2mg THC and 10mg CBD, serves as the perfect
addition to a nighttime routine. With thoughtfully crafted, bold,
natural flavours, these ready to enjoy beverages will be available
in convenient 222ml cans.
As the CBD-infused edible market in Canada evolves, sales for CBD-infused candy
have increased more than eight times in the past year1.
With growing consumer demand, Ace Valley is introducing its first
ever CBD-infused hard candy. Citrus Ginger Super CBD hard candies
feature a unique blend of sugar-free citrus fruit flavour, with a
light kick of ginger, and contain 20mg CBD and 1mg THC per candy.
Sold in packs of 10, the Citrus Ginger Super CBD hard candies offer
an on-the-go, easy-to-use format for CBD consumption.
"We're thrilled to bring the first infused beverage and hard
candy format to the Ace Valley portfolio which continues to delight
Canadian consumers with its roster of premium, ready-to-enjoy
products," said Tara Rozalowsky,
Interim Chief Product Officer. "We've developed our innovation
pipeline to meet the evolving nature of how cannabis is consumed
and the growing consumer demand for products used for different
occasions and use cases."
The new Ace Valley products build on the brand's expansive
lineup of thoughtfully curated THC and CBD-infused gummies, vapes,
and pre-rolled joints. Daylight and Moonwave infused-beverages and
Super CBD hard candies will be available for purchase in select
markets via legal recreational cannabis retail locations and
