DRAM Reviews

Best of Thingtesting4.6

DRAM earns strong reviews for distinctive, botanical beverages and functional drops that many find relaxing and delicious, indicating the brand is good, while feedback flags inconsistent CBD effects and occasionally too-subtle or overly herbal flavors. Reviewers praise foraged ingredients, transparent labeling with no “natural flavors,” elegant packaging, and standout SKUs like Mushroom Cola, Cardamom Black Tea, Beauty Bubbles, Palo Santo Bitters, and Sweetgrass; drawbacks include shrink-wrapped cans, limited in-store availability, and polarizing flavor intensity.

    Honestly the ethics are what keep me coming back as much as the products. No outside investors, no hidden ingredients, no greenwashing. Just a small business doing it the hard way because it's the right way. They grow and forage their own ingredients, they compost their waste, they cut plastic wherever they can - my cans come in boxes, and they are transparent about all of it in an industry that has made opacity its default setting. They hold the line on the values they are clearly committed to. And I share those values which is why I am here. That's not a marketing strategy. That's character. I already left a review on the mushroom cola because it's my holy grail and I couldn't help myself. But this brand deserves recognition beyond any single product. This brand is built by people who actually care. You can feel it. Support brands like this. Loudly and often!!

    I found this brand and never looked back. Shae and Brady forage wild plants to make these drinks and that philosophy runs through everything they make. The mushroom cola is my holy grail — four adaptogenic mushrooms, real botanicals, literal mycelia magic in a can. It tastes like someone reimagined cola from scratch and actually got it right. The Colorado Summer is wild foraged spruce, elderberries, rosehips, and vanilla. You're drinking the actual mountains. The CBD ginger and lemongrass, the pine syrup — not a single miss across any of it. And then there's the horsetail hair oil. My hair is shinier and healthier than it's been in years and I get compliments on it constantly. I have some of these ingredients at home and I promise they did not do this on their own. Whatever magic they're doing over there in Colorado is working. Every ingredient is on the label. No 'natural flavors,' nonsense with this company - which I appreciate so much. They are holding the line on things I hope the rest of the industry remembers are worth holding. It's rare and I hope it starts becoming more common. Sending all my California love straight to Colorado for this one. The real owners of this company are Lefty and Pepe — two absolutely adorable dogs with a very prominent and very deserved presence on the DRAM Instagram. Shae and Brady are pretty great too. Shae also posts ghost stories on her highlights and that alone is reason enough to follow her. Just buy it all. You won't regret it.

    I love the adaptogenic sparking waters from DRAM, lavendar & lemon balm being my absolute favorite. I have recently tried and compared the CBD sparking water sampler 12pack and was not as impressed as I hoped. I have previously purchased several of the CBD drops, my favorite being Big Mood. This dropper bottle is also a company favorite. A little dropper bottle goes a long way! I prefer my CBD concentrated in a quick dose because it does not leave a great aftertaste in the drink.

    I bought the multipack online and loved each and every one! Overall, they are super refreshing but if I had to pick a favorite, it would be the Beauty Bubbles CBD water (so good after a long flight!) and the Lavender and Lemon Balm Herbal water. It's really hard for me to find sparkling water that I enjoy. I like to taste my water if it has a flavor in it so I shocked myself when I went out on a limb to order every flavor. I drink the water for the flavor as the CBD doesn't do too much for me. If I want a kick of CBD, I usually put in a few drops of Pepulum's CBD oil - super delicious in the Citrus and Blossom! I've been loving these pop up more around in shops and stores and hope to see them continue to grow!

    Feedback

    I'd like to see Dram introduce new flavors or even add in more seasonal flavors to their lineup. Overall, they're an amazing brand!
