More and more “edible” companies have garnered attention with the legalization of recreational marijuana spreading across the United States — but what about marijuana “drinkables?”

Puration, Inc., a company that specializes in cannabis extractions specifically in the food and drink wellness category, is making cannabis water a reality. They have announced the first delivery of EVERx CBD Infused Bottled Water is set for the first quarter of 2017, according to a press release.

This fitness-focused cannabis water does not contain the psychoactive compound THC, which means it will not get you high. Instead, the product is intended to be used as a pre- and post-workout supplement, with cannabinol-infused water to work as an anti-inflammatory and relieve muscle spasms.

Other fitness and wellness claims of cannabinol include heart, lung, and brain protection, nausea reduction, strain and sprain assistance, and an immunity boost, according to the company website.

The first round of the sports drink’s production will be enhanced with 10 milligrams of CBD in a 16.9-ounce bottle. The product will also utilize patented water technology by Alkame Holdings (owner of Alkame Water, a health and wellness beverage) that allows CBD to spread through cells in the body more efficiently.

The company anticipates $1 million in sales in 2017.
