CURALEAF EXPANDS ZERO PROOF(TM) BRAND PORTFOLIO WITH LAUNCH OF STIR FAST-ACTING THC BEVERAGE MIX

Curaleaf Holdings Inc. has expanded its Zero Proof brand portfolio with the launch of Stir, a fast-acting tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) beverage mix designed to transform sparkling water into an elevated cannabis experience. Stir by Zero Proof is now available at all Curaleaf locations in Illinois, and is sold wholesale to dispensaries across the state.

Developed for new and existing cannabis consumers alike, Stir by Zero Proof offers an approachable and sociable alternative to hard seltzer with controllable dosing at five milligrams THC per sachet. The easy-to-stir beverage enhancer utilizes nanotechnology to provide a truer-to-flower experience with effects felt in as little as 15 to 30 minutes. At launch, three delicious, low-calorie and gluten-free varieties will be available, including Peach Orange, Berry Cherry and Mango Lime.

"Curaleaf is committed to delivering innovative, high-quality cannabis products in a variety of form factors to serve the needs of our patients and customers at all stages of their cannabis journeys," said Matt Darin, chief executive officer of Curaleaf. "Stir by Zero Proof is the next step in expanding our portfolio of THC-infused drinkables, a category which we believe will ultimately redefine how people socialize."

Stir by Zero Proof follows the September, 2023, launch of the Zero Proof brand's inaugural product offering, Squeeze, a beverage complement that provides a uniquely controllable and customizable experience with an easy-to-pour dispenser and compact design delivering 2.5 mg THC per dose. Both Stir and Squeeze are now available at all Curaleaf dispensaries in Illinois. Zero Proof Stir is also sold by wholesale partners across the state, including at Altius, Earthmed (McHenry) and Grasshoper Club (Southloop).
