LEVIA, AYR Wellness’ cannabis-infused seltzer and tincture brand, has partnered with Kowloon Restaurant, the Boston area’s landmark Asian restaurant and entertainment destination, to launch a limited-edition cannabis-infused seltzer.
The LEVIA Kowloon Mai Tai seltzer pays homage to Kowloon's Mai Tai cocktail in a fast-acting infused beverage bursting with flavor. Each can features 5 mg THC.
LEVIA and Kowloon will commemorate the launch of the infused Mai Tai beverage with a celebration on June 1 at AYR’s dispensary in Watertown, Massachusetts. Guests can sample non-infused versions of the beverage and visit Kowloon's on-site food truck. LEVIA will also provide samples of the uninfused beverage at Kowloon Restaurant in Saugus during an evening of live music on June 14.
The new beverage will be available at AYR’s dispensaries across Greater Boston, as well as retail partners across the state beginning June 1.
"It brings us great pride to collaborate with one of Massachusetts’ most famous restaurants to create a one-of-a-kind cannabis beverage experience," said AYR CEO David Goubert. “Kowloon is an institution in Greater Boston, a place where so many have celebrated and spent time with friends and family. I was able to visit Kowloon and experience the welcoming and warm atmosphere during a team outing last month. We are thrilled to bring a small part of that experience to our customers with our latest seasonal LEVIA flavor.”
“The Kowloon Restaurant holds a special place in the hearts of many in the Saugus and North Shore community, Massachusetts and beyond,” added Kristin Rogers, co-founder of LEVIA Brands. “We are honored to have the opportunity to collaborate with the Wong family and this legendary establishment. By using all-natural terpenes, our team was able to find the perfect combination to honor Kowloon’s iconic Mai Tai while staying true to our unmatched refreshing, low dose, zero calorie, zero sugar, fast-acting sativa blend.”
Founded in 1950, Kowloon is a family-owned dining establishment rooted in Asian cuisine and culture. From hosting weddings to catering celebrations, Kowloon is foundational to the Boston area's cultural fabric.
"With more than seven decades in service, we are always looking for new ways to bring excitement and fun to our customers, and AYR has provided us an opportunity to do just that," said Bob Wong, co-owner of Kowloon. "As demand for cannabis-infused beverages rises, we are pleased to meet customers' evolving interests by putting a twist on our timeless cocktail. The LEVIA Kowloon Mai Tai introduces us to potentially new audiences by elevating the refreshing LEVIA seltzer with the fruit flavors of our signature cocktail for an all new experience."
