  • Beginning July 1, 2027, requires multi-serving cannabis beverage labels to state that they contain multiple servings, identify the single-serving size, and explain how to measure one serving.
  • Beginning July 1, 2027, requires transparent or liquid-visible multi-serving beverage containers to show conspicuous serving-size lines when accurate lines are feasible.
  • Beginning July 1, 2027, requires retailers to offer a free measuring device at purchase for multi-serving cannabis beverages, supplied by manufacturers as needed.
  • Beginning July 1, 2027, prohibits marketing multi-serving cannabis beverages as single-serving products or encouraging consumption of multiple servings at one time.

Who it affects ​
