Infused Mocktails, Consumption Tips, Chicago Weed, and the latest in Cannabis News!

Good Morning Canna Fam! 😁

It brings me so much joy in putting together this newsletter and it’s come a long way since when I first started sending these out. My goal is to make these newsletters as exciting, valuable and interesting for my community as much as possible. This week’s newsletter is jam packed — we got non-alcoholic whiskey mocktails (infused ofc), tips on healthier ways to consume in 2024, and my thoughts on cannabis infused skincare. Let’s get right into it!

Dry January is Here

Dry January is here, and while this is a normal month for me, I know a lot of you are missing the social aspect of it, or simply the ability to pair your meal with a yummy drink.

Well, if that’s you, I’m here to tell you to snap out of it! Mocktails were created for a reason and you do not need alcohol to enjoy your night, or meal. Just head over to the non-alcoholic section of the menu and order the fruitiest drink you can find.

Wanna DIY it? I got you covered. I put together a list of my favourite cannabis infused mocktails. They’re super simple to make and I promise you’re going to love them!

Staying Mindful in 2024

Choosing alternative consumption practices is one of the many ways that I stay mindful about my relationship with weed. I know being mindful it’s not easy, but I hope these tips help you along the way:

If you follow me on Instagram you know I welcomed the new year in the windy city! I absolutely love this city, and during my time here I got to experience it all. From the coldest weather I’ve ever been in, to dinner with Herb Buddies, and the most expensive weed I’ve ever purchased. The best part? I captured it all! I hope you enjoy my first ever vlog :) Go give it some love here.

Cannabis In The News

A new article by netmeds broke down 5 different reasons to use CBD oil based skin products and I have thoughts. The main question here is… Does it actually work? Here’s my personal experience:

• Topicals: From personal experience using topicals, it works well with muscle creams but needs more research. I’m still unsure if it is the cannabis or other ingredients within the products that work.
• CBD for acne: I’d say my findings are inconclusive. I’d like to see more research about this. Also, definitely be careful about ingredients that are often added such as sulfates you don't want. This is something I don’t quite understand as we should be promoting clean and natural products that align with the plant.
• Bath bombs: I absolutely love them in baths in addition to magnesium salts for post workout recovery. I have nothing negative to say here!

High Times recently shared that 3.7 million pounds of weed has been wasted in Canada since legalization in 2018! Why didn’t someone just donate it to me? I’d gladly accept 🤣 All jokes aside though, this is an insane number. There are many challenges with the cannabis industry in Canada, and the wasted weed is a reflection of the difficulties with forecasting demand and sell through. Speaking from the lens of a consumer, it can be overwhelming to know which cannabis flower to purchase and trust when you walk into a cannabis store in Toronto. For the average consumer or new cannabis user, unless you know the backstory and growing practices of every brand, it’s impossible to know what’s good other than getting recommendations from budtenders. But even then, it might not always be that clear cut. The article is a great read, and here are some of my thoughts:

• There are alot of cannabis producers that are growing product that consumers don’t want. When consumers don’t buy, product sits on the shelf and expires.
• There are so many different brands and products that it is near impossible for retailers to shelf and display all brands, while also managing the sell through of every product. Especially smaller mom and pop owned brands.
• Because brands cannot advertise in Canada, it makes it difficult to even communicate with the consumer and let them know that they have product to offer! Imagine if Coca Cola was never able to pay for advertising. No onewould be drinking their sodas!
