Is SKÏP a Drink You Can Have at Lunch? Building Cold-Pressed CBD Into Your Day

Lunchtime is one of the most underrated moments in the day.

You've got through the morning.

There's still a lot ahead of you.

And for many people, it's the only natural pause point between the first coffee of the day and heading home later that evening.

Yet when you look around at what's available, the choices often feel limited.

  • Sugary soft drinks.

  • Another cup of coffee.

  • Or sometimes something that feels better suited to an evening than the middle of a working day.

That's exactly why more people are becoming intentional about what they're reaching for at lunch.

According to the British Soft Drinks Association, seven out of 10 soft drinks in the UK are now low or no-sugar, reflecting a growing shift towards more considered daytime drink choices.

And it's one reason SKÏP has found a natural place in so many lunchtime routines.

  • Not because it's something you need to schedule.

  • Not because it's a regime.

Simply because it's a drink that fits naturally into the middle of the day.

Key Takeaways

  • SKÏP is designed to be enjoyed as part of a normal day, including at lunchtime

  • CBD and drowsiness are not the same thing

  • Many people choose SKÏP as an alternative to sugary drinks or another coffee

  • Both CBD and Lion's Mane can fit naturally into daytime routines

  • SKÏP is designed to be flavour-first, with functionality as an added bonus

Can I Drink SKÏP at Lunch?

Absolutely. In fact, lunch is one of the moments many people naturally reach for SKÏP.

We always say SKÏP fits into your day the way any great drink should.

It's not something you have to remember to take. It's not something you need to plan your day around.

It's simply a drink you reach for when the moment feels right.

For a lot of people, lunchtime is that moment. It's a chance to step away from your desk, get some fresh air, eat something decent, and reset before the afternoon begins.

And that's where SKÏP naturally fits. Alongside your lunch. On a break. Or as part of that small pause before getting back into the rest of the day.

Will SKÏP Make Me Sleepy in the Afternoon?

This is something we're really clear on.

Calm and drowsy are not the same thing. 

Many people describe CBD as helping them feel a little more settled or at ease, while still getting on with their day.

Experiences vary from person to person, but people don't typically talk about it as feeling heavy or overwhelming.

CBD is different from feeling drowsy or sedated.

And that's one reason lunchtime works so well as a SKÏP moment.

It's a point in the day where people often want something refreshing that fits naturally into the afternoon ahead.

Is SKÏP a Good Replacement for a Fizzy Drink at Lunch?

Yes, Absolutely. 

For most people, it starts with the flavour.

Something refreshing. Something that becomes their go-to flavour.

The functionality is often secondary.

Whether that's Lemon & Basil, Elderflower & Mint, or Peach & Ginger, the first thing people tend to come back for is the taste. A lot of people discover SKÏP because they're curious about CBD, but it's often the flavour that keeps them coming back. 

The second is how naturally it fits into their routine.

Unlike many traditional soft drinks, SKÏP was created as a more considered option for modern drinking occasions.

One that feels just as comfortable alongside a sandwich, salad, or lunch meeting as it does at home.

Can I Bring SKÏP to Work?

Many people already do. One of the most common places people drink SKÏP is at work.

It might be alongside lunch. It might be during that 3 pm window when you're looking for something that isn't another coffee.

Or it might simply be that moment when the office feels a little warm, and you're ready for something cold and refreshing.

The beauty of SKÏP is that it doesn't require a special occasion. It's built to fit around the moments you already have.

Of course, if your workplace has specific guidelines, it's always best to follow them and check if you're unsure.

Which SKÏP Flavour Is Best for Lunch?

The honest answer is whichever flavour you naturally reach for.

At SKÏP, flavour always comes first. A functional drink should still be enjoyable to drink.

That's why every flavour is designed to stand on its own as a genuinely refreshing drink.

Some people love the freshness of Elderflower Mint. Others reach for the citrus notes of Lemon Basil, while Peach Ginger has become a favourite for people looking for something a little different.

Ultimately, the best flavour is the one you want to reach for again tomorrow.

Is SKÏP Filling Like a Sugary Drink?

SKÏP was never designed to feel heavy. It is designed to feel refreshing.

That's one reason it fits so naturally alongside food.

Whether it's a quick lunch between meetings or a longer break away from your desk, SKÏP complements the moment rather than taking it over.

People are increasingly looking for drinks that feel lighter and more considered throughout the working day.

And that's where SKÏP often finds its place.

Can I Drink SKÏP With a Meal?

Absolutely. Many people enjoy SKÏP with lunch, dinner, or even while hosting friends.

It's designed to sit comfortably alongside food in the same way any great soft drink would.

That's one reason lunchtime has become such a popular SKÏP moment.

It's a natural pause point. A small reset in the middle of the day.

And those moments often matter more than people realise.

Why SKÏP Fits So Naturally Into the Working Day

One thing we've noticed since launching SKÏP is how many different ways people build it into their routine.

  • For some, it's the drink they grab from the office fridge.

  • For others, it's part of their lunch break.

  • Some people choose Lion's Mane before a focused afternoon of work.

Others reach for CBD because they want to feel a little more at ease while staying fully present in the day ahead.

And perhaps that's why lunchtime continues to be such a natural fit.

According to a 2025 YouGov survey for the Portman Group, 38% of UK drinkers now consume low and no-alcohol alternatives semi-regularly, with younger adults continuing to drive the trend.

People are increasingly looking for options that feel considered, refreshing, and suited to everyday moments.

That's exactly where SKÏP belongs.

Not saved for a special occasion. Not reserved for a particular time of day.

Just a great-tasting drink that fits naturally into whatever the day happens to bring.
