Certain psychoactive compounds, including delta-8-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-8 THC), delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-9 THC), and delta-10-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-10 THC) can be manufactured in concentrated amounts from hemp-derived cannabidiol (CBD). Under existing law, psychoactive cannabinoids may not be sold to minors and must be located in an area where minors cannot access the products. This bill would prohibit the sale of any beverage that contains any amount of psychoactive cannabinoids, except as permitted under the medical cannabis laws. This bill would also provide that delta-9-THC is specifically included in the definition of psychoactive cannabinoids for purposes of the law.
