Happy Danksgiving! To help you truly indulge in this year’s Thanksgiving feast, we’ve compiled this list of cannabis pairings that we think go perfectly with each dish. Starting with the turkey and working our way down to dessert, there’s something dank to consume alongside each dish. So, load up a plate and pack a bowl as we dive into these Thanksgiving food & strain pairings.

Turkey & Big Buddha Cheese

Thanksgiving Turkey Decorated with Cannabis

Starting with the star of the feast, our first Thanksgiving food is the turkey. Before you dig in though, we think you should smoke some Big Buddha Cheese. Big Buddha cheese is an offspring of the iconic original Cheese strain. This indica-leaning hybrid delivers a strong cheese flavor alongside a pungent earthy smell. As for the high, this strain delivers an intense euphoria that will help kick off your Thanksgiving feast right. As a matter of fact, this strain is so popular that it won the High Time’s 2006 Cannabis Cup!

Mashed Potatoes & Mary Jones Soda

Now, you may be experiencing the dry mouth of a heavy smoke sesh followed by heaping mouthfuls of turkey. So, you may need something to wash it all down. As you make your way over to the mashed potatoes, consider pairing them with a delicious Mary Jones Soda. Mary Jones Soda comes from the same team that makes the classic Jones Soda but with an infused twist. Each sip is a testament to the unbeaten, award-winning flavors that they’ve carried since 1996. Each batch is perfectly dosed for consistent effects and comes in classic Jones’ flavors like Rootbeer and Green Apple.

Green Bean Casserole & GMO

Green Bean Casserole Topped with Cannabis

Moving along to our next Thanksgiving food, we think you should pair your green bean casserole with a side of GMO. GMO is a potent indica-dominant hybrid that crosses Girl Scout Cookies with Chemdawg. This strain produces a euphoric high with mentally uplifting effects. Additionally, GMO delivers a body high that will have you feeling unwound and relaxed. You can expect loud flavors from GMO, like its garlic-forward taste and pungent diesel aroma. These dank garlic notes pair perfectly with the flavors of any good green bean casserole.

Cornbread & Purple Cream

Now that the high from Mary Jones Soda is probably creeping its way in, we’ve chosen a strain that is a little less potent for this next course. Up next on our Thanksgiving food & strain pairing list is cornbread, which we think pairs best with Purple Cream. Purple Cream is an indica-dominant hybrid with a mysterious genetic profile. This strain delivers a moderate physical high that will help your body relax and unwind. In terms of flavor, Purple Cream is smooth and creamy with a similar but more floral aroma. These creamy notes pair nicely with a side of cornbread as the high delivers a mild case of the munchies that may have you going in for seconds.

Pumpkin Pie & Blackberry Pie

Finally, we end this Thanksgiving food & strain pairing list with dessert. So, we think you should pair your pumpkin pie with a side of Blackberry Pie. Blackberry Pie is an evenly balanced hybrid that delivers a super powerful high to end the night with a bang. The high builds slowly, starting in the head with a sense of euphoria. As an influx of creativity takes hold, you may even feel a touch of motivation that will help you get through the load of Thanksgiving dishes you’ll need to clean soon. As these effects build, your body will be lulled into a state of relaxation with a hunger that will only be satiated by some delicious pumpkin pie. In terms of flavor of this strain, you can expect delicious notes of fresh blackberries and nuts. As for the aroma, this strain smells dank and earthy with a spicy berry overtone.
