Fresh Press: The Perfect Introduction to Adult-Use Cannabis in Minnesota
At the heart of our partnership is Fresh Press, 23rd State's award-winning functional cannabis beverage that's changing how people think about adult-use cannabis in Minnesota. Each can of Fresh Press delivers a precisely dosed 10 mg THC and 10 mg CBG combination, crafted to provide an uplifting, social experience without overwhelming effects.
Fresh Press stands apart in the crowded cannabis beverage market through its commitment to quality and flavor. The sparkling pear cider features natural extracts that produce complex, full-flavored drinks without excessive sugars or artificial sweeteners. This attention to craft has earned Fresh Press recognition as an award-winning product backed by real-world clinical research through the MoreBetter cohort study.
For those new to cannabis or seeking a more controlled experience, Fresh Press represents the ideal entry point into adult-use cannabis in Minnesota. The low-dose formulation allows consumers to start slowly and find their perfect vibe, while the fast onset time of 5-10 minutes means effects are felt quickly and last approximately one hour.

The Twin Cities Cannabis Revolution
The Twin Cities region has emerged as a hub of cannabis innovation, with adult-use cannabis in Minnesota representing a new frontier for responsible consumption. Island Peži's location serves the greater Twin Cities area, providing easy access for consumers throughout the region seeking premium cannabis beverages and products.
This partnership arrives at a crucial moment in Minnesota's cannabis evolution. As more consumers explore alternatives to alcohol and seek functional beverages that enhance rather than diminish their experiences, Fresh Press offers a sophisticated option that fits seamlessly into modern lifestyles. Whether celebrating with friends, unwinding after work, or simply seeking a moment of elevation, Fresh Press provides the perfect balance of potency and flavor.
Made for Celebration and Joy
At 23rd State, our products are formulated for what we call "fun-ction." Unlike heavy-handed cannabis products that can leave users feeling lethargic or overwhelmed, Fresh Press is designed to uplift and enhance social experiences. The carefully calibrated 10 mg THC and 10 mg CBG ratio creates an experience that's social and uplifting, allowing consumers to remain engaged and present during celebrations.
Our commitment to innovation extends beyond formulation. 23rd State has invested heavily in research and development, ensuring that every can of Fresh Press delivers consistent, reliable effects. The beverage utilizes advanced nanoemulsion technology for rapid onset, meaning you'll feel the effects within 5-10 minutes rather than waiting an hour or more as with traditional edibles.
