“Orange Sunshine” a limited-edition, low-dose hemp sparkling water made for a laid-back, hangover-free summer
AUSTIN, TX – June 5, 2025 – Just in time for summer, two beloved Austin-based brands — Tejas Tonic and Cowboy Pools — have teamed up to launch Orange Sunshine, a sparkling new low-dose hemp beverage made to elevate your summer without the hangover. Terpene-boosted and vibe-checked, this all-natural, sugar-free, zero-calorie drink offers a mellow, citrusy buzz thanks to 10mg of CBD and 2mg of THC in every sleek 12oz can.
Born from a friendship rooted in community, creativity, and a shared love for the Austin lifestyle, Orange Sunshine marks the first co-branded release between Tejas Tonic and Cowboy Pools. The result? A crisp and refreshing drink designed for poolside hangs, backyard barbecues, live music nights, or wherever your summer takes you.
“We teamed up with our friends at Tejas Tonic to create a drink that embodies the easygoing spirit of Austin — something you can sip all afternoon, sugar-free and worry-free,” said Aaron and Amanda Weiss, Founders of Cowboy Pools. “Whether you’re lounging in your Cowboy Pool, catching a show, or just kicking back with friends, Orange Sunshine is your perfect alternative beverage for easy summer vibes.”
The name Orange Sunshine pays homage to both its citrus-forward flavor and a Woodstock-era spirit — a nod to the free-spirited, sun-soaked ethos that both brands share. Available as a six-pack (MSRP $24.99), the limited-edition beverage will be sold exclusively at tejastonic.com (with nationwide shipping), at select events throughout Austin, and in Cowboy Pools’ new retail showroom while supplies last, alongside the full Tejas Tonic portfolio.
Tejas Tonic remains the only brand in the Lone Star State to grow its own hemp specifically for beverage production. Consumers can feel confident that every ingredient in Orange Sunshine is locally sourced and meticulously cultivated with transparency, passion and integrity.
“This drink is our love letter to summer in Austin,” said Hilary Fox, Partner and CMO of Tejas Tonic. “Orange Sunshine is our first low-dose 12 oz. drink, and we’re thrilled to debut this limited-edition, bright and uplifting beverage made with local, organic Texas-grown hemp — especially in collaboration with our friends at Cowboy Pools, who share our passion for laid-back vibes and community-driven creativity.”
To celebrate the launch of Orange Sunshine, Tejas Tonic and Cowboy Pools are hosting a 60’s inspired psychedelic day party on Saturday, June 7 at Half Step on Rainey Street, featuring live music, a Cowboy Pool, good vibes, and plenty of Orange Sunshine to go around.
