Your Guide to a Thoughtfully Infused Holiday

Infuse Your Holiday Celebration Without Overcomplicating It

Bringing cannabis into your holiday doesn’t have to be the main event. In fact, some of the best ways to infuse your day are subtle and smart. Tinctures are an easy add-in for mocktails or warm seasonal drinks. Flavored options like wild cherry or cream soda add character to beverages, while unflavored tinctures mix in seamlessly without drawing attention.

If dessert is your favorite course, swap in an infused blondie or brownie as a twist on the classics. You can cut them into shareable bites or use them as toppings for ice cream sundaes. Looking for something low-key? Discreet options like gummies can be enjoyed without fanfare, whether you're hosting or just hanging out on the couch post-meal.

For something refreshing, try infused beverages like cola, ginger beer, or CBD sparkling waters. These can be served alone or mixed into creative mocktails (without needing a bartender).

Not all cannabis use requires consumption. Topicals like bath bombs, infused epsom salts, or high-potency lotions and balms are perfect for relaxing after hosting, traveling, or just taking time for yourself. Keep them on hand for guests too. They make a great addition to the guest room or a thoughtful holiday care package.

Smart Holiday Use Starts with a Plan

The holidays are a great time to enjoy cannabis, but a little prep can go a long way. If you’re enjoying edibles, start low and go slow. It’s always better to enjoy the moment than to overdo it, especially when effects can take over an hour to kick in. Keep infused items clearly labeled and stored away from non-infused dishes to avoid any surprises at the dinner table.

Make sure to keep cannabis products out of reach of kids and pets. Store items in a cool, dry place and avoid mixing them with other foods in your fridge or pantry.

While cannabis is legal in Oregon for adult use, public consumption is still not allowed. Make sure guests know the rules if they’re visiting from out of state. And if you’re offering cannabis as part of your hosting experience, let people know exactly what they’re consuming and how it might affect them.

Whether you're a first-time host or a seasoned planner, thoughtful cannabis use helps everyone have a smoother, safer holiday. Looking for the right products to match your celebration style? Stop in and talk with our team for personal recommendations and safety tips.

Give Back While You Celebrate

The holidays are a time to reflect on what we have and remember those who are struggling. Right now, the Tualatin Food Pantry is serving more households than ever before. They’re providing essential groceries, fresh produce, and support to families and individuals across the area. The need is real, and the pantry is feeling the pressure.

Northwest Cannabis Company has been hosting a donation bin to support this local cause. And while we’ve seen generosity from our customers, the shelves at the pantry could still use our help. If you’re visiting us this month, consider bringing a donation. Non-perishable food items like canned goods, pasta, and rice go a long way in helping a neighbor in need.

Every donation matters, and your support helps build a stronger, more compassionate community.

Bring a donation with you next time you stop in, and help us continue supporting the Tualatin Food Pantry in their mission to fight hunger.
