Cannabis Storage 101: How to Keep Your Cannabis Fresh

Summer in Niagara hits different. The patios are packed, the Falls are misting, and nobody wants to be huddled around a lighter in 30-degree heat. If there's one season where cannabis drinks and edibles shine, it's this one — and our beverage fridge and edibles shelf are stocked for it. Whether you're a local planning a backyard hang or a visitor building the perfect Niagara day, here's why smoke-free options deserve a spot in your summer rotation. Why Drinks & Edibles Win in the Summer There's something about a cold THC beverage on a hot day that just makes sense. No smoke, no smell, no gear to carry — just crack a can and enjoy. Drinks are also easier to dose in social settings: most infused beverages on our menu land right at 10 mg THC per can, so you can pace yourself the same way you would with any summer drink. They're also discreet and travel-friendly for a bonfire or a night in — just remember Ontario's public consumption rules (our FAQ covers the basics, and our staff are always happy to walk you through them). What's Chilling in the Honeypot Fridge Our beverage cooler rotates all season, but right now the lineup reads like a summer patio menu: Lemonades & punches — Summer in a can. Ray's Lemonade Strawberry Lemonade and Summit Pink Lemonade are exactly what a July afternoon calls for, and Punchy's Fruit Punch tastes like a throwback to summer camp — with a twist. Sparkling sodas — Crisp and sessionable. Astrolab's Interstellar Rocket Lime Live Rosin Soda brings real live rosin flavour, while XMG Zero Orange Soda keeps it zero sugar for anyone watching the sweet stuff. Tropical vibes — Closest thing to a beach vacation in a can: Cannabis Cartel's Sparkling Coconut Water with Pineapple and Green Monké Tropical Citrus , a balanced 10 mg THC / 20 mg CBD sipper for a mellower ride. Lighter options — Frootyhooty's Poppin Peach Splash Zero is an easy-drinking peach sparkler, and Collective Project's CBG Raspberry & Lime Botanical Water is perfect when you want refreshment with a lighter touch. Edibles Built for Summer Days Gummies remain the MVP of warm-weather edibles — they hold up far better in a beach bag than chocolate (trust us, an OLLI brownie is delicious, but it does not love a July afternoon in a hot car). Our soft chews shelf reads like a fruit stand right now: SOURZ by Spinach Pink Lemonade and Blue Raspberry Watermelon for classic sour-candy energy, HighXotic's TenTen Caribbean Chill live rosin gummy for tropical flavour, and Pearls Peach Mango CBD chews for a THC-free wind-down. Prefer something gentler? Wyld's Real Fruit Strawberry Gummies at 20:1 CBD:THC are a fan favourite from the Hive Jive crowd. New to edibles? The golden rule is start low and go slow. Edibles can take 30 minutes to 2 hours to kick in, so give your first dose time to work before reaching for another. Make It a Niagara Day Visiting the Falls this summer?
