Pop a pot pod into your Keurig machine to get a medicinal dose with your java. There may soon be a new use for your Keurig coffee maker — brewing pot.
Canadian medical cannabis producer CannTrust has created a single-serve marijuana pod called the CANNCUP.
Like other pods on the market, the CANNCUP will contain your choice of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. But these capsules will have a little extra something — dried cannabis.
Pop one in your single serve coffee machine and it will brew up a hot drink spiked with “a standardized dose of medical marijuana,” explains CannTrust CEO Eric Paul.
CannTrust wants to join U.S. companies that are already serving up pot pods.
Paul claims the marijuana won’t affect the taste, and at an estimated $3 to $4 a pod, the price will be comparable to a high-end cup of coffee. And yes, the CANNCUP is apparently Keurig compatible.
