SKïP vs Other CBD Drinks: What Makes Ours Different?

CBD drinks can look quite similar when you first see them in the fridge.

A can. A flavour. A number of milligrams on the front.

Look a little closer, though, and there can be quite a few differences.

The type of CBD can vary. So can the amount in each can, the serving size, the ingredients and the flavours.

At SKïP, we use 5mg of cold-pressed CBD in a 250ml can, alongside real fruit juice, botanicals and flavours including Lemon & Basil, Elderflower & Mint and Peach & Ginger.

So comparing CBD drinks means looking beyond the milligram number on the front of the can.

Key Takeaways

• Each SKïP CBD drink contains 5mg of cold-pressed CBD in a 250ml can.

• We use cold-pressed CBD because keeping more of hemp's wider natural compound profile matters to us.

• The Food Standards Agency currently advises healthy adults to limit CBD from food to 10mg per day.

• SKïP CBD drinks use real fruit juice alongside fruit, herbal and botanical flavours.

• SKïP was created as a drink first. The CBD matters, but the taste is just as important.

What Makes SKïP Different From Other CBD Drinks?

SKïP combines 5mg of cold-pressed CBD with a 250ml serving, real fruit juice, botanicals and three fruit-led flavours.

The type of CBD matters. The amount in each serving matters. So do the ingredients, the size of the drink and what it actually tastes like.

Why Do We Use Cold-Pressed CBD?

There are different forms of CBD used in food and drink.

CBD isolate is a purified form of CBD, while our cold-pressed process retains more of hemp's wider natural compound profile.

That wider plant profile matters to us, which is why we chose cold-pressed CBD for SKïP.

So when you are comparing SKïP with another CBD drink, check the type of CBD as well as the number of milligrams.

The number tells you how much CBD is in the drink. It does not tell you which form of CBD has been used.

Why Does SKïP Have 5mg of CBD Per Can?

Because we wanted the amount to make sense for the way people actually drink SKïP.

The Food Standards Agency currently advises healthy adults to limit CBD from food to 10mg per day.

Each SKïP CBD can contains 5mg.

So you can have one and know exactly how much CBD you have consumed. If SKïP is your only source of CBD that day, there is room within the guidance for another can later.

That might be one with lunch and another later in the day.

Or it might simply be one can because that is what you fancy.

Clear labelling helps here too. In June 2026, Food Standards Agency research found that 52% of people who had consumed CBD in the previous six months used packaging or label instructions to help decide on a suitable dose or serving.

One SKïP can means 5mg of CBD, making the serving easy to factor into your total CBD intake for the day.

What Should You Compare When Looking at CBD Drinks?

Food Standards Agency research from June 2026 found that, among people who had consumed CBD in the previous six months, 63% had consumed it in drink form.

But if you are looking at different cans, the milligram number is only one part of the comparison.

Why Does Flavour Matter So Much to SKïP?

Because CBD is only part of the drink.

Our current CBD range comes in three flavours:

• Elderflower & Mint

• Lemon & Basil

• Peach & Ginger

If you already know you like elderflower, start there.

If citrus is normally more your thing, Lemon & Basil probably makes more sense.

If you tend to choose fruitier drinks, Peach & Ginger is the obvious one to try.

The cold-pressed CBD is there, but there is no distinct flavour or aftertaste that it leaves behind.

Our drinks provide flavours you’ll crave, and a feeling you’ll come back for.

Why Are SKïP CBD Drinks 250ml?

A SKïP CBD can is 250ml.

For us, that works as one clear serving with 5mg of CBD.

You do not need to measure anything out or work out part of a serving. One 250ml can is one drink containing 5mg of CBD.

Pop it in the fridge to get icy cold, ready to crack open when you need that break most.

• Lunch.

• An afternoon at your desk.

• After work.

• Dinner.

• Friends coming round.

• Or simply when you need a moment to breathe.

There is a SKïP moment in every day!

Is SKïP Supposed to Make You Feel Calm Straight Away?

People experience CBD differently, so we would not promise that everybody will notice the same thing after a SKïP.

CBD is non-intoxicating, and our CBD range sits on the Daily calm side of Daily focus. Daily calm.

But calm does not mean sleepy.

We do not position SKïP as a bedtime drink or promise a particular effect.

FAQs

How Much CBD Is in a SKïP Drink?

Each current SKïP CBD drink contains 5mg of cold-pressed CBD in a 250ml can.

What Makes SKïP CBD Different?

We use 5mg of cold-pressed CBD in each can because both the type and amount of CBD matter to us. The drinks also use real fruit juice and fruit, herbal and botanical flavours, so CBD is only one part of the finished drink.

Is 5mg of CBD Enough?

People experience CBD differently, so there is no single amount that everybody will experience in the same way. Each SKïP contains 5mg, while the FSA currently advises healthy adults to limit CBD from food to 10mg per day. We would not recommend choosing a CBD drink simply because it has a bigger number on the front.

Can I Drink Two SKïP CBD Cans in a Day?

Two SKïP CBD cans contain 10mg of CBD in total. The FSA currently advises healthy adults to limit CBD from food to 10mg per day, so you would also need to consider any CBD consumed from other food or drink that day.

What Flavours Are the SKïP CBD Drinks?

Our current CBD range comes in Elderflower & Mint, Lemon & Basil and Peach & Ginger.

Does SKïP Taste Like Hemp?

That is not what we are aiming for. The cold-pressed CBD is there, but the drinks are built around their fruit, herbal and botanical flavours. The flavour written on the can should be what you notice, rather than the CBD.

Will SKïP CBD Make Me Sleepy?

We would not describe SKïP as a sleepy drink. People experience CBD differently, and we do not promise a particular effect. Our CBD range is the Daily calm part of Daily focus. Daily calm. But calm does not have to mean sleepy.
