Searching for a hi 5 drink usually leads to Hi5, the fast-acting cannabis beverage brand created by Massachusetts-based Theory Wellness. Hi5 is best known for flavored THC seltzers sold in 4 packs, but this brand also includes soda, energy drinks, sour chews, and beverage enhancers in selected markets. At South Shore Buds in Marshfield, adults 21 and older can check the current menu for Hi5 seltzers and related products.
The spelling can be confusing. Shoppers search for “hi 5 drink,” “Hi5 drink,” “Hi-5 drink,” and “High Five drink,” but the official brand name is Hi5. This guide uses the correct brand name while answering the questions behind all of those searches: what a Hi5 drink contains, how the fast-acting format differs from a traditional edible, which flavors exist, how serving size works, and where adults can shop for Hi5 near Marshfield, Massachusetts.
What is a Hi5 drink
A Hi5 drink is a cannabis-infused beverage from Theory Wellness. The best-known version is Hi5 Seltzer, a carbonated 12-ounce drink that the company commonly describes as containing 5 mg of THC per can. Theory packages many Hi5 seltzers in four-packs and markets them as zero sugar, zero calories, gluten-free, and made with natural fruit flavors. Adults should confirm all of those details on the current Massachusetts package because products and batches can change.
Hi5 is not an alcoholic drink. Cannabis and alcohol should not be combined, and Massachusetts does not permit alcoholic beverages containing THC or CBD. The presence of THC means a Hi5 drink can impair concentration, coordination, judgment, and driving ability even when the can resembles an ordinary sparkling water.
Who makes Hi5 drinks
Theory Wellness makes Hi5. Theory describes itself as an East Coast cannabis company involved in cultivation, extraction, manufacturing, retail, and wholesale. The company began operating under the Theory Wellness name in 2015 and debuted Hi5 in Massachusetts in February 2021.
The launch placed Hi5 among the earlier widely distributed fast-acting cannabis seltzer brands in Massachusetts. Theory subsequently expanded the Hi5 family beyond seltzer to soda, energy beverages, sour chews, and beverage enhancers. Product availability varies by state and retailer.
How much THC is in a Hi5 seltzer
Theory’s current seltzers contain 5 mg of THC per 12-ounce can. A four-pack therefore commonly contains 4 individual 5mg beverages, but the package label and testing sticker control. Theory’s support guidance notes that tested THC and CBD totals can vary by batch.
Massachusetts treats each beverage can as a defined serving package. Do not assume that a larger multipack is intended for one occasion or one person. Read the amount per can, confirm whether the container is a single serving, and keep the outer package and can labels together.
Five mg may be a standard adult-use serving, but it is not automatically a beginner serving for every person. THC response varies with tolerance, prior experience, body chemistry, food intake, other substances, and the product itself. A less experienced adult should ask a budtender about the labeled serving rather than choosing based on can size or flavor.
Why Hi5 is described as fast acting
Theory says Hi5 uses fast-acting THC compounds and describes the seltzer as designed to take effect in about 5 minutes. Its educational material attributes the faster format to nano-emulsification, a process that disperses cannabinoids into very small droplets in water. This can change how the beverage is absorbed compared with a conventional edible.
“Designed to take effect in 5 minutes” is a manufacturer statement, not a guarantee. Individual onset varies. The current Massachusetts warning for edibles states that impairment may be delayed by two hours or more. Those points are not contradictory: the product is formulated for faster onset, but an adult should still use the regulated warning as the cautious standard and avoid rapidly consuming more THC. Do not use fast onset as a reason to stack servings. Sip deliberately, wait, and pay attention to how the labeled serving affects you. Never drive or perform a safety-sensitive task after consuming THC.
Hi5 seltzer flavors
Theory’s official seltzer page currently lists a broad national or regional lineup. Not every flavor will be available in Massachusetts or at South Shore Buds on a given day. These flavors include: Peach Mango, Lime, Lemon, Black Cherry , Pomegranate, Grapefruit, Watermelon , Cranberry-Lime, Winter Mule, and Four-Twenty Loco Strawberry Margarita.
The live menu and physical package should determine all transactional copy.
Is a Hi5 drink a seltzer or a soda
Hi5 is a brand family, not a single beverage. Hi5 Seltzer and Hi5 Soda are different product lines. Hi5 Seltzer is positioned like flavored sparkling water. Theory commonly describes standard seltzers as zero sugar and zero calories. Hi5 Soda uses familiar soda styles such as Cola, Diet Cola, Lemon Lime, Mr. Pif, Orange, and Cherry Cola. Soda ingredients, sugar, calories, and flavor profiles may differ, so consumers should not apply a seltzer claim to every Hi5 drink.
The brand also offers a sugar-free energy drink with 5 mg of THC and 80 milligrams of caffeine according to Theory’s current product page. Caffeine does not cancel THC impairment. Adults with caffeine sensitivity or health questions should review the label and consult a qualified healthcare professional.
What is a Hi5 beverage enhancer
Hi5 Beverage Enhancers are concentrated cannabis-infused liquid products intended to be added to food or nonalcoholic drinks. Theory currently describes THC-only and ratio versions in selected markets. South Shore Buds has recently indexed an unflavored enhancer and a Relax 1:1 product. An enhancer requires a different serving conversation from a ready-to-drink can. Check the total THC, serving measurement, number of servings, cannabinoid ratio, and directions. Measure accurately; do not pour by eye. Never add cannabis to another person’s food or drink, and never combine it with alcohol.
Hi5 drink compared with a traditional edible
Both cannabis beverages and gummies are ingested products, but the format changes the experience. A conventional gummy usually travels through the digestive system before cannabinoids are absorbed and metabolized. A fast-acting beverage is formulated to disperse cannabinoids in water and may begin producing noticeable effects sooner. The beverage also encourages gradual consumption because a person can sip rather than eat a single piece. That does not make it risk-free or self-limiting. A can can still be consumed quickly, and the total labeled THC still matters. The most responsible comparison focuses on serving size, onset expectations, ingredients, portability, storage, and how easily the package can be secured.
Does Hi5 contain alcohol
No standard licensed Hi5 cannabis seltzer is an alcoholic beverage. The product contains THC and should be treated as cannabis, not as hard seltzer. Do not mix it into an alcoholic cocktail or use alcohol-style serving language that could blur the distinction. Cannabis beverages cannot be consumed in public merely because they come in cans. Massachusetts prohibits public cannabis consumption except in specifically licensed settings. Keep the product sealed during transport and consume only where legal.
Can you drive after a Hi5 drink
No. THC can impair driving, reaction time, attention, coordination, and judgment. A low-dose or fast-acting format does not make driving safe. Plan transportation before opening a can and allow enough time for all effects to resolve. Caffeine in a Hi5 Energy product does not make an impaired person safe to drive. Feeling more awake is not the same as being unimpaired.
How long do Hi5 effects last
There is no single reliable duration. Theory promotes a rapid onset and describes peak effects around 30 minutes in its educational article, but duration varies with serving size, tolerance, metabolism, food intake, other substances, and individual response. The product label may not predict when a particular adult will feel fully unimpaired. New consumers should avoid scheduling driving, work, caregiving, swimming, boating, or other safety-sensitive activity around cannabis use. If the experience is stronger than expected, move to a calm and safe setting. Contact Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222 for guidance about concerning ingestion and call 911 in an emergency.
How to store Hi5 drinks
Keep unopened and opened Hi5 products in their original labeled packaging and follow the storage directions on the can. Store them away from children, teenagers, pets, guests, and anyone who could confuse the can with an ordinary flavored seltzer. Do not display cannabis beverages alongside household soda or sparkling water. A locked storage area is safer. If refrigeration is recommended after opening, follow the label and do not rely on the refrigerator alone as child-resistant storage.
