Green Pharm’s Dixie Elixir

Bottoms Up
By Lynda Wheatley | April 16, 2022

Many anti-alcohol and hangover-fearing folks find THC-infused mocktails make for an equally happy hour after a long week. The hard part, however, is finding one that works efficiently, tastes good, and doesn’t require you to carry a teaspoon in your pocket. So when we heard Green Pharm in Kalkaska started carrying liquid Dixie Elixirs—a product from Denver’s highest-profile infused-products company, Dixie Elixirs and Edibles, and new to Michigan—we got very excited. The child-resistant cap of each 8.5-ounce bottle features a 15ml measurement line, which holds a 6mg serving of THC, so you can fine-tune your dosing. And despite having 100mg of high-grade THC and no artificial flavors or colors, the bottle we tried—Fruit Punch flavor—had no weed-y taste whatsoever; just a juicy, fruity, pure-cane-sugary sweetness that perked up our club soda and, after about 30 minutes, us. $20 at Green Pharm, 764 S. Cedar St., Kalkaska. (231) 384-6614
