Viola, the pioneering Black-owned cannabis brand founded by former NBA player Al Harrington, has teamed up with hemp beverage innovator Tempters to introduce a blend. By blending Viola’s deep-rooted cannabis legacy with Tempters’ expertise in functional beverages, the partnership aims to reshape how consumers experience THC through flavor, wellness, and accessibility.
The collaboration kicks off with three 10mg THC-infused Spritz drinks: Blueberry (Indica), Strawberry (Hybrid), and Citrus (Sativa). Formulated for both taste and effect, the beverages are designed to enhance relaxation, creativity, and energy, depending on the chosen blend.
“This partnership allows us to bring the best of both worlds to cannabis consumers—exceptional products that not only taste great but are created to enhance moments in a responsible, enjoyable, and sustainable way,” said Al Harrington, Founder and CEO of Viola.
The new line is available now through select national retailers, including Stew Leonard’s, Top 10 Liquor, Total Wine, GoPuff, and online at tempters.us. With plans to expand into low-dose and high-potency variations later this year, Viola and Tempter’s aim to reach everyone from first-time users to seasoned THC consumers.
This move reinforces Viola’s mission to normalize cannabis use while supporting equitable access and representation in the industry. At the same time, Tempter’s continues to push innovation in the hemp beverage category, making functional THC products more enjoyable and mainstream.
