CBD/ Cannabis Bev Market Could Reach $1 Billion Next Year

February 26, 2019 -- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Microcap Speculators -- As recreational marijuana legalization becomes a reality in more U.S. states, the interest in cannabis-infused drinks is on the rise. The hemp and CBD category is expected to be a $1billion market by 2020 in the U.S. according to a report by Brightfield Group.

Big beverage is looking to take advantage of that opportunity, a great example is Pepsi and their deal with Tilray.  Below are a few ways to play this blossoming market.

One potential leader in this growing market segment is Real Brands, Inc. (RLBD).  RLBD has strong management with a solid background in branding and the beverage industry and plans to expand their holdings focusing on at least three CBD Categories:  smokables, edibles and topical balms and lotions.  The Company just announced it acquired the trademarks: Humboldt Brands®, Hemp-Aid® and HempAid®.  This could point to more news in the near future, so start your research today.

Today we are highlighting: Real Brands, Inc. (RLBD), Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY), The Alkaline Water Company (WTER), HEXO Corp. (AMEX: HEXO), and Emerald Health Therapeutics, Inc. (USOTC: EMHTF).

Real Brands, Inc. (RLBD) (Market Cap: $14.232M, Share Price: $0.1075) is launching a CBD beverage called Omega Hemp™ Water.  The Company is very close to its first production run, meaning there could be major news on the way.  The audit on the horizon means this could also be another major event for investors to pay attention to.

The Company just announced that they have engaged an accounting firm that is registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to complete their two-year audit which could make the company desirable to larger investors.

The aforementioned, Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY) (Market Cap: $7.21B, Share Price: $77.39) is buying Manitoba Harvest, the world’s largest hemp foods manufacturer, for $317 million from Compass Diversified Holdings, eyeing the growing CBD food and drink market in the U.S.

______

The Alkaline Water Company (WTER) (Market Cap: $115.407M, Share Price: $3.33) recently listed on the NASDAQ and is coming off a record month of November where its sales hit more than US$3.1 million. The Company is expected to hit US$40 million in sales for this fiscal year.

The Company's key product, Alkaline88, is a big reason for its success and the strong performance is expected to continue into next year. A key area where Alkaline Water hopes to grow is in the cannabis industry where its CBD-infused water can potentially provide more health benefits for its health-conscious consumers.

______

HEXO Corp. (AMEX: HEXO) (Market Cap: $1.17B, Share Price: $5.68) is forming a joint venture with Molson Coors. The Company is partnering with HEXO, which'll likely be a top-10 producer by peak annual output.  Molson Coors gets its foot in the door in a fast-growing industry while giving HEXO the marketing leadership it needs.

______

Emerald Health Therapeutics, Inc. (USOTC: EMHTF) (Market Cap: $415.227M, Share Price: $2.9492) announced earlier this week the launch of Verdélite Sciences Inc., a wholly-owned Québec-based production subsidiary licensed by Health Canada.  Formerly known as Agro-Biotech, Verdélite currently produces high-grade dried cannabis for medical and adult-use purposes.
