The can says 20mg. What lands is the question.

Not all THC is created equal.

Two products can both say "20mg" and put very different amounts into your bloodstream. Oral THC in an oil or gummy is only 4 to 12% bioavailable. Delta cans are built on a nano-emulsified Delta 9 Live Resin, so the body absorbs far more of what's on the label.

~3x
Peak absorption

In a published crossover trial, a nano-emulsified THC/CBD formulation produced peak blood levels about 3x higher than the same dose in an oil base. Faster onset, tighter curve, the can behaves the way the label suggests.

The science

Why the can actually behaves like 20mg.

For the curious. The short version is above. Here's the long version, with the comparison data and the molecular reason it works.

A 20mg oil-based edible

20mg on the label.
A fraction in your bloodstream.

4–12% absorbed

Oral THC is documented in the 4 to 12% bioavailability range. Most is broken down by the liver before it reaches circulation. The variability is the reason you've finished a gummy thinking nothing was happening, then ended up surprised in the credits.

The Delta 20mg Can

20mg on the can.
Far more of it lands.

~3x peak absorption

In a published crossover trial, a nano-emulsified THC/CBD formulation produced peak blood levels about 3x higher than the same dose in an oil base. The droplets cross the gut wall directly into circulation instead of getting metabolized away. Onset is faster. The curve is tighter. The same dose, every can.

Oil/gummy Delta Can
Onset 60 to 120 min 10 to 20 min
Peak level Low, late 3x higher
Variability High Low

Why size matters at the molecular level.

THC is fat-soluble and hates water. Drop it into your stomach as an oil or a gummy and it sits there, clumping, until your liver pulls it apart, a process that destroys most of it before it reaches the brain. This is called first-pass metabolism, and it's why a 20mg gummy is mostly a 20mg sticker.

A nano-emulsion shatters the same THC into droplets thousands of times smaller, evenly suspended in liquid, exactly what a 12oz can lets us deliver. Smaller droplets, more surface area, less loss. They cross the mouth and gut wall straight into circulation.

It's the same approach pharma uses to deliver cannabinoid drugs in clinical settings, and the same reason a sip lands like a sip and not a coin flip.

Label = body. 20mg of nano-emulsified THC behaves like 20mg. The number and the lift line up.

Sources. Oral THC bioavailability of roughly 4 to 12% is documented in the foundational NIH/NLM review of human cannabinoid pharmacokinetics (PMC2689518). Nano-emulsified THC/CBD reaching ~3x the peak blood level of the same dose in an oil base is reported in a 2025 crossover trial published in the Journal of Cannabis Research (PMC12166629). Delta cans are hemp-derived under the 2018 Farm Bill, multi-lab tested, COA on every product page.

What it feels like

Faster onset. Fuller-bodied. The same morning.

Because the nano-emulsion gets more of the label dose into your bloodstream, the lift is faster and the curve is tighter than an edible. Plenty of presence to carry an evening, with a fade slow enough that you wake up clear.

Onset in 10 to 20 minutes

The nano-emulsion skips the slow oil-in-stomach phase that makes edibles take an hour-plus. If you don't feel it after 30 minutes, food slows absorption, sip a little more.

Lasts 4 to 6 hours

The longer-lasting tier. Plenty of evening in a single can, fade slow, no mid-night surprise.

Half a can is the smart start

The 20mg is potent and nano-emulsified, which means more of it lands. Half a can lands like more than the same number in a gummy. Wait twenty minutes, decide.

Sleep, without the wine slump

No headache, no sluggish start, no Sunday-morning-after. The same morning whether you had half a can or a full one.

Made for staying in

Four flavors, four moods.

The day is done, the lights are low, the can in your hand was built for exactly this.

0 cal 0 sugar 0 alcohol. Every can, every night.

A lot of these are sippers who came from edibles, came from prescription sleep aids, or just came home and wanted the night back.

Made with the good stuff

Five ingredients you can pronounce.

Carbonated water. Nano-emulsified hemp extract (Delta 9 Live Resin). Citric acid. Natural flavors. A touch of stevia (the leaf). That's the whole list. Plant-based, naturally sweetened, free from artificial colors and synthetic sweeteners.

Jack Sherrie, Founder and CEO of Delta
A real founder, a real promise

After years of edibles that landed too late and oils that landed at random, Jack stopped looking for the right drink and built it. Delta is what came out: a nano-emulsified hemp-derived cannabis seltzer where the milligrams on the can actually behave like the milligrams in your body.

If the can says 20mg, the body should feel 20mg. We built the science around that.

Sipping 101

Frequently asked.

What does "nano-emulsified" actually mean?

It's the delivery format. THC is fat-soluble, which means it doesn't mix with water and doesn't absorb well from the stomach in its raw oil form. A nano-emulsion uses high-pressure homogenization to break the oil into droplets thousands of times smaller, evenly suspended in liquid, exactly what a 12oz can lets us deliver. Those tiny droplets cross the gut wall directly into the bloodstream instead of getting trapped and broken down by the liver. Same delivery science used in pharmaceutical cannabinoid formulations.

So a 20mg Delta can is "stronger" than a 20mg gummy?

The label dose is the same. What's different is how much of it lands. Standard oil-based oral THC has a documented bioavailability of about 4 to 12%, meaning 88 to 96% gets metabolized away before reaching your bloodstream. Published research on nano-emulsified THC formulations shows roughly 3x the peak blood concentration from the same starting dose. Practically, that means a 20mg Delta can delivers more usable THC than 20mg in a typical gummy or oil. Start with half a can.

What is Delta 9 Live Resin?

The good stuff. Live Resin is made by flash-freezing freshly harvested cannabis flower, preserving the terpenes, flavonoids, and cannabinoids at their peak. It's how we infuse seltzer water with THC without the hempy taste, and it's the starting material we nano-emulsify before it ever hits the can.

What's actually in a can?

20mg of hemp-derived Delta 9 THC and 2mg of CBD, in 12 oz of carbonated water with natural fruit flavors and a touch of stevia. Five ingredients total: water, hemp extract, citric acid, natural flavors, stevia leaf. No alcohol, no sugar, no calories.

How fast does it hit?

10 to 20 minutes for most sippers. The nano-emulsion skips the slow oil-in-stomach phase that makes edibles take an hour-plus. Slower if you've eaten a big meal. The onset is faster than an edible, the finish is longer and steadier than alcohol.

How much should I drink the first time?

Half a can. The 20mg is the deep tier and nano-emulsified delivery means it lands faster and harder than the same number on a gummy label. Half a can is roughly a 10mg dose. Wait 20 minutes, decide. Most regulars settle into half a can or one full can per evening. Don't drink on an empty stomach. Don't mix with alcohol.

What does Delta 20mg feel like?

Bubble bath for body and mind. A deep, full-bodied wind-down. Longer-lasting than the 5mg or 10mg, and because the absorption is more complete and more consistent than a gummy or oil, the curve is tighter: faster up, steadier through, and the back end doesn't surprise you in the credits. Onset in 10 to 20 minutes, lasts 4 to 6 hours, no morning fog.

How does 20mg compare to Delta 5mg or 10mg?

All three tiers are built on the same nano-emulsified Delta 9 Live Resin, so the absorption advantage holds across the line. Delta 5mg is the casual sip, sessionable, made for daytime. Delta 10mg is the social dose, made for the round and the dinner table. The 20mg is the deepest tier, longer-lasting, built for the slow part of the night, the bath, the book, sleep.

Is the 20mg good for sleep?

It's the tier most regulars reach for at the end of the night. The Blood Orange in particular is indica-leaning and our customer favorite for pre-sleep. Half a can, 30 minutes before bed, lights low, no screens. We don't make medical claims, but the reviews are clear about what it earns its spot for.

What does it taste like?

Like a really good seltzer. Little to no plant taste, thanks to the Live Resin. Blueberry Acai is hybrid, deep and jammy, made for the reading chair. Pink Lemonade is hybrid, tangy, made for vinyl nights. Blood Orange is indica-leaning, citrus and bitter, the slow-finish closer. Passion Fruit is bright and tropical.

Is the nano-emulsion safe? What's in it?

Nano-emulsions are a standard, well-studied food and pharmaceutical delivery format, the same approach used in some cannabinoid drug products and across the modern cannabis beverage category. Our emulsion uses food-grade emulsifiers to coat the THC droplets so they stay evenly dispersed. Every batch is multi-lab tested at certified third-party facilities for cannabinoid content, residual solvents, pesticides, and heavy metals. Certificate of Analysis is on every product page.

What's the difference between hemp and marijuana?

Same plant. The legal split is on Delta-9 THC concentration: hemp is <0.3% by dry weight, marijuana is more. We use hemp-derived, federally legal under the 2018 Farm Bill, which is why we can ship to 30+ states and stock at Total Wine, Sprouts, and Circle K.

Will it show up on a drug test?

Possibly, depending on the test. Hemp-derived cannabis is the same plant as anything you'd be screened for. If you're tested for work or sport, the safer answer is no, this isn't the can for you. We'd rather tell you that up front.

Can I have it with alcohol?

No. Stacking THC and alcohol changes the experience and isn't something we encourage. The whole point of Delta is that you don't need the alcohol. Pick one or the other on any given night.
