Whoopi Goldberg to Launch Whoop-Tea at Cannabis Means Business 2025

Whoopi Goldberg, an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony Award-winning entertainer and entrepreneur, is set to participate in a fireside chat at Cannabis Means Business (CMB) 2025. The event, scheduled for June 4–5 at the Javits Center in New York City, will also serve as the launch platform for her new hemp-derived beverage, Whoop-Tea. Goldberg will join CNBC’s Tim Seymour on June 4 for an exclusive conversation in the Special Events Area on the CMB exhibit floor. Their discussion will focus on the rapidly expanding cannabis beverage market and the inspiration behind Whoop-Tea, a collaboration with leading cannabis beverage brand Pure Genesis.

Goldberg shared her vision for Whoop-Tea, stating, 'I wanted to create something that’s fun, relaxing, and brings people together—without the hangover. Whoop-Tea is exactly that. It’s tea, it’s lemonade, it’s THC, and it’s all about unwinding and enjoying the moment.' Her participation in CMB 2025 underscores the significant shift towards cannabis-infused products in wellness culture, offering consumers alternatives to traditional alcoholic beverages.

CMB, formerly known as CWCBExpo, stands as the premier North American trade show and conference for professionals and companies focused on growth, innovation, and business development in the cannabis industry. The event reflects the dynamic and complex nature of New York City, a global hub for business and innovation, including the cannabis supply chain.
