Let’s be honest, more sex could probably help solve many of the world’s problems. Which is funny, because the same is often said for weed. But exactly which of the 10,000-plus cultivars out there are the best weed strains for sex?
Glad you asked. Leafly has the most solid signals on what weed strains help in the bedroom. A nation of stoners has shared hundreds of thousands of reviews, scoring bud for not just THC, but the ability to score itself.
‘All good weed can make you horny,’ a critic might say.
We agree. Weed that’s a turn-off won’t ever become a best-seller, for example. However, reviewers consistently rate some strains higher on the arousal scale than others.
So here are Leafly’s best strains for sex. These are the strains and terps reviewers have said are uniquely arousing, as researched and selected for favorability and availability by our experts.
Cereal Milk
Cereal Milk is a lush, creamy strain with a soft, relaxing high, making it perfect for sexy vibes. Hailing from the Cookies empire, this cross of Y Life (GSC x Cherry Pie) and Snowman, a sativa-dominant GSC pheno, gives this hybrid a perfect balance of fun and function.
This is a beautiful strain that is perfect for giving and even better for receiving. Her nugs are dense, sparkling like diamonds in the moonlight. Gassy, creamy, peppery, and potent, ditch the wine on date night and pick up some Cereal Milk instead. – Lindsay MaHarry
Moonbow
From astrology and tarot cards to the unchecked sexual magnetism of Mac Tonight (real ones know), the moon symbolizes the wild side of human nature throughout culture. Channel a little of that passionate energy with Moonbow (The Original Z x Dosidos), a banger strain from Archive that will get you in touch with your mystique.

Showing you stores nearIt’s a candy-sweet, essentially sugar-coated strain with luscious, fruity terps that hits just right when the romantic dinner is finished, and the candles start to burn low. If you’re in the PNW, we recommend this strain from Gold Leaf Gardens: it’ll get you howling. – Morgan Rosendale
Cheetah Piss
Has everyone seen Nicole Kidman in Babygirl? Her character, a CEO with carnal, feline desires, has a life-changing affair. It’s a sexy, vibrant movie that celebrates a woman’s gratification, and it reminded me while I watched it of the strain Cheetah Piss.
Cheetah Piss is somewhat of a paradox; it has a peculiar name and a jolting kind of ammonia terpene profile. But it is incredibly arousing. Like Babygirl, Cheetah Piss reminds us that we can be messy, a little nasty, and still deserve to feel good. In fact, arousal is liberating. This strain is full of tingles and touches and smiles, all precursors to a wildcat kind of night. – Amelia Williams
Blackberry Caviar
If you’re craving a berry delightful spa-level melt from the comfort of your couch this Valentine’s Day, Blackberry Caviar is your girl. Plush, indulgent, and loudly decadent, she sets the mood, getting you lit before the candles ever are.
Bred by Ridgeline Farms and available through Cookies and Redwood Roots, this indica-forward pheno from Ridgeline’s iconic Grape Gas x Lantz lineage is a full-body charmer, dialed in across every sensory register, and balanced yet potent.
The high rolls in slow and luxurious, loosening muscles and softening edges, while flavors of dark berries and crusted sugar are finished by a heady rush of gas. Relaxed, intimate, and effortlessly indulgent, it’s the kind of strain that turns staying in into the main event. – Lindsay MaHarry
LA Kush Cake
No surprise that Seed Junky has multiple creations on this list. He gets endless (and mostly warranted) praise for the vigor of his plants, their oozing, gourmand terps, and the intensity of their cannabinoids. But rarely do I see anyone writing about how horny Seed Junky can be. He favors less central branches of the Cookies families to breed and breed, honing in on a combination of a la carte flavor and a rolling euphoria.
And euphoria is just one side of the arousal coin. The biggest obstacles we experience to gratification are mental blocks, and LA Kush Cake knows how to melt them away. As one reviewer put it, it imbues us with the power of a “psychedelic sex appeal.” – Amelia Williams
Velvet Cake
Velvet Cake is exactly what the name promises. Soft and sumptuous, she’s built for sensuality, stargazing, and the kinds of night moves that make tomorrow feel forever away.
A cross of Velvet Purps and Ice Cream Cake from the regenerative luminaries at Sun Roots Farm in Mendocino, this indica-forward hybrid leads with linalool, releasing a heady grape-and-floral perfume the moment you crack the nug.
The buds themselves are blush-toned and trichome-heavy, marbled with deep purples and emerald greens. They’re so rich in purple anthocyanins (potent antioxidants) that the paper can bleed violet as it burns, reducing inflammation in the body and theoretically making you hotter with every hit.
On the palate, Velvet Cake is creamy and sweet with a lush burst of passionfruit, underpinned by those classic JahGoo jasmine/Afgoo notes lingering softly in the background. The smoke is smooth, spicy, and sweet.
The effects arrive slow and steady, relaxing the body without knocking you out, easing tension, and inviting you to sink deeper into the moment. Velvet Cake is a reminder that slow and sexy always wins the race.
The Soap
Minty, minty, minty. Most amorous acts begin with a kiss, and there is no greater enemy to a good kiss than bad breath. The Soap, another Seed Junky banger, cleanses both our tongues and our psyches, preparing us to receive the utmost pleasure. I thought I was having salacious thoughts, but some of the reviews for The Soap make me want to wash my eyes out—”made a total mess on the side of the bed”; “h0rknee”; “getting dirty,” and many more that are not fit to print here. – Amelia Williams
Wedding Cake
First comes the best weed strains for sex, then comes marriage. If you’ve ever bought weed, odds are you’ve heard of Wedding Cake. There’s a reason this strain has crushed the market since hitting the shelves. It’s great. So great, in fact, we named it Leafly Strain of the Year 2019.
This cross between Triangle Kush and Animal Mints checks all the boxes, like nose, structure, potency, yield, looks, AND high, hitting you with a classic stoner experience. You’re giggly, zoomy, languid, and above all else, holistically rushed with joy. The culmination of these super good feels makes it a great addition to bedroom activities, as well. – Lindsay MaHarry
Apples + Bananas
While the name doesn’t exactly conjure visions of intimacy, Apples and Bananas is a fabulous strain for enjoying a stress-free good time. This cross between Now N Later and Jet Fuel Gelato produces tight, potent buds that are perfect for blasting off in more ways than one. Smelling like fruity fuel and pepper flowers, her effects are euphoric, dreamy, and uplifted. – Lindsay MaHarry
L’Orange
Despite everything, French is still sexy. Tragic, we know, but we must acknowledge that calling the strain L’Orange instead of “The Orange” does make it roughly 45% more sexy, enough to bump it up from PG-13 to R. Not that L’Orange needs the extra branding; it’s an elegant strain that delivers a delightful tangy, citrus-forward flavor with a slightly cool, menthol exhale.
L’Orange comes to us from Cannabiotix, a standout indoor operation that only releases hits, and L’Orange is quite the feather in their already impressive hat. If you’re an anxious person who can suffer from a bit of performance anxiety (no shame), then L’Orange’s gentle, anxiety-relieving high will let you sink into your bliss. -Morgan Rosendale
Donny Burger (also known as Donnie Burger)
Donny Burger is a classic arousal strain that leaves you physically titillated and mentally calm. AKA, up for anything. Originally bred by Skunk House Genetics, this cross between the heady bangers of GMO and Hans-Solo Burger is definitely on the downer spectrum of the effects rainbow.
But instead of relaxing you in a sleepy-deepy way, you’re sent downtown giggling on a feather bed. It’s also great for reducing inflammation in the body, which, again, makes things run more smoothly, if you know what I mean. To enjoy DB this VD in California, check out the Donny Burger by Trinity County regenerative legends Sol Spirit Farm. Their rendition is truly excellent. No notes. – Lindsay MaHarry
