As more countries begin to legalize either medical or recreational marijuana, there are many "firsts" coming about, including the world’s first-ever cannabis commercial for the cannabis-infused sparkling tonic 'Legal' drink.
The quirky 90-second commercial is set to the tune of music from indie filmmaker James Westby, who uses song as a means to explore the four flavors offered by Legal—Rainier Cherry, Lemon Ginger, Pomegranate and Cranberry CBD—as well as the traits that make each "drinkable high" unique.
The commercial is filled with humorous lines that poke fun at cannabis culture, including a section that begins as an ode to the Lemon Ginger flavor and quickly ends with: "And I just wanna say... I forgot what I was gonna say."
