Three mildly potent potables to combat the winter blues or, even better, if you are one of the lucky ones, enhance your cold-weather cheer.
The drinks are powered by Pruf Cultivar’s Astral Works, a high-CBD strain providing a sense of calm and a tropical, fruity taste. Sometimes, high CBD allows me to focus while enjoying a mild psychoactive experience. Other times, I want to get really, really stoned.
Happy New Year!
