A well-known steakhouse chain, Logan’s Roadhouse, is planning to test THC-infused cocktails at selected locations in Texas. This initiative is set for a one-night bar social event on June 8, where the cocktails will be offered at a price of $9.99 each and will become part of the regular menu afterward.
The THC beverages contain five milligrams of THC made from a hemp-derived ingredient, allowing them to be sold legally in Texas where recreational marijuana is not yet legal. Guests aged 21 and older will have the option to sample all three drinks in a tasting flight for the same price.
The cocktails to be featured include:
- Scarlet Haze: A prickly pear cocktail with lemon and lime.
- Pineapple Express: A fruit mix of pineapple, orange juice, and grenadine.
- High Tide: A blend of pineapple and coconut flavors.
According to Shawn VanWinkle, VP of Marketing at Logan’s Roadhouse, the move reflects changing consumer preferences toward low-dose THC options as alternatives to traditional alcoholic beverages.
With a growing market for THC-infused drinks expected to reach $4 billion by 2028, Logan’s aims to capture part of this trend while focusing on its reputation for great food and hospitality. Notably, there will be a restriction of three cocktails per guest, and these drinks cannot be ordered alongside alcoholic beverages.
The chain operates over 115 locations in various states, with several in Texas cities like Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and McAllen.
