Consumers of hemp-derived cannabinoid-infused beverages frequently report reducing their alcohol intake, according to survey data compiled by the beverage manufacturer Crescent Canna.
Pollsters surveyed 1,066 respondents ages 21 and older. Survey participants were culled from Crescent Canna’s consumer database. Survey results were provided to the cannabis news site Marijuana Moment.
Over 56 percent of respondents acknowledged consuming either “slightly less” or “much less” alcohol after trying cannabis-infused beverages. Another 21 percent of respondents said that they quit drinking alcohol altogether.
According to separate survey data published last year, 60 percent of cannabis consumers say that their marijuana use results in less frequent alcohol consumption. The results of a clinical trial published in September in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence find that adults drink less alcohol and experience fewer alcohol cravings immediately following their use of cannabis.
