Summer extinguished itself in a salty mix of sunscreen, ocean spray and tears over the weekend. It was a good run. Now, what’s next? Well, infused cold brew coffee, delicious Lime Haze, and new cartoons from the creator of The Simpsons are coming in hot. Here’s what you need to try out Aug. 13-19. We call it — ‘Hit This’.

Shopping List

Sativa to Watch — Lime Haze. Energy and the citrus taste of lime set off this Haze varietal, spotted at Kind Love in Denver, but popular from Canada to Las Vegas.

Productive Product — The Level+ Coava Cold Brew with five milligrams of THC. Part of our Cool Edibles package.
