OAKLAND, Calif., June 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Jones Soda Co.

"Partnering with KSS has allowed us to hit the ground running and ensure timely distribution and service to the top dispensary locations throughout the state."

Mary Jones is the first cannabis product portfolio to leverage 25 years of a mass market-established equity across brand, beverage, flavors, and fans. The portfolio uniquely fills a gap that exists in the market between micro-dosed, health claim-driven brands and high-potency terpene flavor profile brands by offering both new and experienced users a welcome alternative for cannabis moments and social occasions.

"We are humbled to welcome Mary Jones and the Jones Soda family to the Kiva Sales and Service portfolio. Mary Jones is a truly unique offering in the California cannabis space and brings what I believe to be the new leader in infused soda pop," commented KSS President Brooks Jorgensen. "We could not be more excited about the future of this brand."

At launch, Mary Jones will feature a line of 10mg THC cannabis-infused sodas sold in single dose, 12-oz bottles, with a four-pack carrier ideal for social occasions and sharing. All products are available in Jones' fan-favorite Root Beer, Berry Lemonade, Green Apple, and Orange & Cream flavors, with a rotating selection of seasonal and limited-edition flavors planned for future release. The Jones flavor science team designed each of these products to perfectly recreate Jones' popular mainline soda flavors, delivering crave-worthy beverages.
