California cannabis beverage recalls — every DCC recall for this product type

California cannabis beverages have the same recall profile as edibles: zero contamination findings in the dataset, every recall cited for label or data-pipeline failures. The DCC verbatim language is the same — "Misbranded," "Adulterated and Misbranded," "Inaccurate Labeling (Cannabinoid inflation)" — applied to printed dose math (mg THC per serving, servings per container) and to packaging-format issues like "Attractive to Children" on infused beverages that approximate non-cannabis drink formats.

The failure surface is structural: every cannabis beverage has a printed cannabinoid value, a serving size, and a packaging-format claim. Each of those flows through the same COA → ERP → label generator → printer pipeline that produces edible labels. A misconfigured field mapping, a stale COA, or a rounding error at any step lands the printed label out of agreement with the underlying lab result — and that's what the regulator recalls against.

The cannabis beverage market is small but growing. The label-pipeline failure rate is 100%. For operators preparing to launch beverage SKUs, the recall risk to manage is structural, not chemical.

Every recall on this page was published by the California Department of Cannabis Control on recalls.cannabis.ca.gov. Phenominal Consulting maintains an organized index of the portal, refreshed daily. Product types are categorized using the DCC's own "Product Type" field on each recall notice.

Category labels (contamination, label/data, mixed, other, packaging) are interpretive groupings applied by Phenominal Consulting based on the verbatim DCC reason language. They are not DCC's own classification.
