Infused food and beverages are growing at an explosive rate, proving that the cannabis market has evolved beyond the traditional methods of consumption. It can be difficult to create a reliable, great-tasting cannabis drink in a category that is becoming increasingly competitive. How can one ensure that the taste of every sip is consistent and predictable, while also delivering a pleasing, pleasant onset? It’s a complex puzzle that few have managed to solve, but it’s one that Sōrse Technology has built its reputation on mastering.
As a leading hemp and terpene emulsion formulator, supplier and compliance lab, Sōrse is the secret ingredient behind some of the most popular cannabis drinks on the market today. Their partnership with the food, drink and topical industries allows them to remove the uncertainty from product development.
Spark of an Idea
Sōrse Technology’s journey began with a simple desire: to make the edible and drinking cannabis experience better and safer. The founders were frustrated with inconsistent dosing and unreliable results that left consumers wondering when—or if—the effects would kick in. The founders wanted a product that had a near-perfect dose and an “off ramp”, so consumers could have a predictable, enjoyable experience.
Their first product, Happy Apple was the “aha” moment. It had a delicious taste, delivered a consistent experience, and became quickly Washington State’s best-selling drink. They realized it was no easy feat to combine a stable cannabis-emulsion with a delicious taste. Those two things combined were the secret sauce, a revelation that led them to focus their business on selling their proprietary Sōrse emulsion and leaning into the food science aspect of the industry.
The World Class Team behind Every Sip
Sōrse is more than an ingredient provider; they’re a full-scale production partner. They have a team of scientists and CPG professionals from all over the world with a combined 200-year experience. These experts include some of the best-known names in the business: Scott Riefler is a chemist and has four decades’ experience. Michael Flemmens works on a patented drug and a cancer treatment.
It’s this depth of in-house expertise that sets Sōrse apart. Their labs don’t just formulate ingredients—they run taste tests and long-term studies on the finished product, testing stability over an entire year and across a range of temperatures. This results in a quality and reliability that is unmatched by most of their competitors.
This extra level of care and commitment helps brands deliver products that consumers can trust—accurately dosed and safe to enjoy. As Sōrse puts it, their mission is simple: The dose on the can should be the dose the consumer actually experiences. They ensure that the product is stable and will not change over time. This includes testing to make sure the drink matches the promise on the can, even a year after the initial purchase.
CANN and Wynk are just a few of the major beverage brands that use this technology to make low-dose products. Four of the top 10 beverages are low-dose drinks.
