Upward by Trulieve Supports Active, Wellness-Focused Lifestyles

— July 24, 2025 — Lifestyle
Building on the positive response to Onward (a premium, non-alcoholic THC beverage for those seeking a new and alternative form of refreshment,) Trulieve announced the launch of Upward, a premium THC-infused energy drink to support active and wellness-focused lifestyles.

Upward is introducing itself to adult cannabis consumers with a balance of THC and CBD in varieties like 5-milligram Lemonade, Peach Nectarine, and Strawberry Tea and 10-milligram Pink Lemonade. These low-calorie energy drinks featuring natural fruit juices deliver a boost thanks to green coffee beans and black tea leaves, offering an experience that uplifts the mind while gently relaxing the body. As such, these alcohol-free drinks for a buzz-free lift lend themselves well to different situations that call for refreshment, from quiet moments and slow afternoons to casual social gatherings.
