Thai businesses are cashing in with cannabis-infused products like toothpaste, tea, soaps and snacks after the government legalised the plant and its extract this year, generating a wave of interest in the drug.

“It gives me a deep and comfortable sleep,” said Pakpoom Charoenbunna, 32, who buys a cannabis-infused drink from his regular milk-tea vendor.

Last month, Thailand decriminalised the entire plant. Dropping cannabis from its narcotics list has led to an explosion of recreational use. But the regulator limits the content of tetrahydrocannabinol – the active ingredient that gets users high – in any cannabis product to just 0.2%. Producers of THC-rich marijuana have taken advantage of the push to promote medical marijuana and stalls selling pot have sprung up around the country.
