Looking for the best weed for parties? Not all strains are created equal. Our budtenders recommend sativa strains like Sour Diesel and Jack Herer for uplifting effects and mental clarity without the heavy, sedating body high.

Let’s be blunt: not everyone wants to fall in line for shots or a fancy (i.e., overpriced) cocktail when heading out. Now that we understand more about the varying degrees of cannabis effects, we are also seeing a simultaneous decrease in alcohol consumption across Canada.

More people are choosing cannabis over alcohol while on a night out. When looking for the best weed for parties, it is important to remember that not all cannabis strains are created equal. 

Forget hangovers and awkward “hangxiety.” Here are some of the most energizing weed strains fit for a daring night out.

6 Energizing Weed Strains to Elevate Your Night  

Here are some of the most energizing weed strains to boost your party meter.

1. Jet Fuel Gelato 

Got a big night planned with the crew? One of the best weed for parties is Jet Fuel Gelato. Just like its name, this potent hybrid strain contains moderate THC levels (usually 22%). It offers a quick onset that can leave you feeling energized, euphoric, and chatty. Its gently energizing, mood-lifting profile is perfect for highly social events.

Available in pre-rolls or flower, Jet Fuel Gelato from Sun Valley Farms will sit nicely inside your pockets as you gallop from one venue to another.

2. Animal Face

With a staggering 30% THC content, this flavourful hybrid is the genetic offspring of Face Off OG and Animal Mints. It definitely tops the list of energizing strains. This sativa-dominant strain can help you feel creative, energetic, and focused. These cerebral effects can be handy when speaking to random people you have just met. Best of all, it provides a clear-headed high without the immobilizing body high.

Get charged up by copping this pre-roll 3-pack of Animal Face from Carmel Cannabis.

3. Banana Bread 

With a flavour profile akin to its pastry counterpart, this cross between Purple Kush and Vietnamese Black has a high THC content that can send you into a hyper-yet-calm state. 

Not every party needs to be a rager, and certain strains like Banana Bread are great for more laid-back social gatherings, such as dinner parties or birthday picnics in the park. This strain can offer a more relaxed effect for those who want to feel uplifted while staying chill.

4. Ghost Train Haze 

Thanks to its dominant terpenes, terpinolene and hazy pinene, the pleasant aroma of this strain is an added benefit to its powerful, energetic effects. 

As its uplifting abilities creep in, you may notice a spike in creativity. When you’re thinking of what to do next, Ghost Train Haze is definitely an ideal go-to sativa choice!

5. Strawberry Cough 

If you really want to feel socially engaging, this popular strain is a clear-cut choice. It’s a high-sativa strain often used for its energizing effects, which entice you and your friends to keep your creative juices flowing.

Want to hop on this party (s)train? Pick up a convenient pack of Strawberry Cough cartridges by Back Forty for a long-lasting, zestful mood at an alcohol-free night out. 

6. Orange Tingz 

The dense, bright buds of this strain look as enticing as its commanding citrus aroma. The bright orange pistils and frosty trichomes are signs of how potent and terpene-filled these cannabis cultivars are.

The main effects of Orange Tingz can give you a much-needed euphoric push for a vibrant and exciting night. If you’re looking for sativa strains that help you elevate mood, this 3.5g flower from 7ACRES will be a good addition to your party night crew.
