The term “420” has one of the most interesting, legendary origin stories in cannabis culture. Back in the 70’s, a group of Northern California high school students were determined to find an abandoned cannabis crop in San Rafael. They met at 4:20pm each day to search for it, and eventually “420” became their code for getting high. The students had connections to the Grateful Dead followers, and the term soon caught on with their subculture. Now, nearly 50 years later, cannabis consumers continue to honor the plant on April 20.
To celebrate 4/20, the cannabis world’s national holiday, members of the SoRSE team have shared their recommendations for their favorite infused products to pop open at some point during the day. Whether you’re hanging out at home, opting outside, or getting together with friends or co-workers, these infused drinkables powered by SōRSE will be sure to elevate your 4/20 experience!
