Forget your boring cooler and skip the old “white wine and punch” setup. If you’re throwing an event in Summer 2025—whether it’s a wellness pop-up, backyard hangout, or artsy festival booth—there’s one trend that’s taking over: the DIY Hemp Drink Bar.
And with the release of Hippie Drops, creating your own buzz-worthy experience has never been easier.
Ready to serve custom THC drinks that actually taste amazing and align with the sober-curious movement? Here’s your go-to guide.
Step 1: Stock Your Bar With the Essentials
To keep it simple and effective, here’s what your hemp drink bar should include:
Hippie Drops Packets
Offer a variety of potencies (2.5mg for newbies, 5mg for mellow sippers, 10mg for seasoned floaters). Set them in sleek bowls or glass jars labeled clearly.
Base Mixers
- Sparkling water (lime, berry, lemon, plain)
- Coconut water
- Cold-pressed juices (pineapple, grapefruit, watermelon)
- Iced teas or kombuchas
- DIY lemonade (classic or fruit-infused)
Fresh Garnishes
- Mint, rosemary, or basil
- Cucumber and citrus slices
- Crushed berries
- Edible flowers or glitter ice cubes
Glassware + Ice
Opt for eco-friendly cups, reusable tumblers, or mason jars. Keep crushed and cubed ice ready for layering drinks in style.
Step 2: Create a Simple How-To Station
Display a printed or framed sign with clear 3-step instructions:
- Choose Your Base
(Sparkling, juice, tea, etc.) - Add Your Drop
(Select dosage + flavor) - Garnish + Enjoy
(Add fruit, herbs, and ice)
Make it feel fun and interactive—think festival-meets-spa, not clinical or complicated.
Step 3: Set the Mood
Pair the drink station with:
- Soft background music or a chill playlist
- Aromatherapy mist or palo santo to elevate the vibe
- Mood lighting: fairy lights, neon signs, candles
- Optional: QR code to scan full ingredients + effects
This isn’t just a drink bar—it’s an experience.
Step 4: Educate (Without Overwhelming)
Have signage nearby explaining:
- What hemp-derived THC is
- Why it’s different from alcohol or marijuana
- What guests can expect (uplifting, light, social effects)
Let people know it’s:
- Federally legal under 0.3% Delta-9
- Alcohol-free
- Lab-tested and safe
Transparency builds trust and gets people excited.
Step 5: Give Guests the Option to Mix or Take Home
Offer sealed Hippie Drops at the bar for guests to pocket—or let them make a mocktail to enjoy onsite.
Some events even offer branded takeaway bags with:
- A few Hippie Drops
- A recipe card
- A wellness or music-themed sticker
- Discount code for online orders
Final Sip: You Just Became Everyone’s Favorite Host
A DIY Hemp Drink Bar is more than a novelty—it’s a statement. It says:
“We care about how you feel. We believe in better options. And we still know how to throw a damn good party.”
So whether you’re planning a moon circle, album release, art opening, or micro-wedding, Hippie Drops let you create connection without compromise.
