'Drank' stress-relief beverage called 'weed in a can'

A new beverage has hit the marketplace. But instead of a hip new energy drink, Drank is being billed as the world's first "anti-energy drink" intended to "slow your roll."

The "extreme relaxation" beverage does the job so well it is being called "weed in a can" by consumers.

Drank contains valerian root, melatonin, and rose hips, all of which are known for their calming effects.  A warning is displayed on the can that the beverage may cause drowniness and should not be consumed more than twice in a 24-hour period.

Drank’s obvious similarities to dangerous street concoctions with names like “purple drank” and “sizzurp” that combine cough syrup and soda, are causing concern among parents.
