The Original Lemonnade (sometimes stylized as LemonNade) is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain of cannabis with a lot of mystery surrounding it. We do know that the strain is the product of famous rapper Berner’s love for cannabis. He’s quite large in the Cali cannabis scene, as he ran a cannabis club and is also friends with famous cannabis consumer and rapper Wiz Khalifa. He is reportedly also responsible in some part for many of the Cookies strains on the West Coast.

The genetics behind this strain are intentionally withheld from the public, to keep the strain proprietary. The Original Lemonnade is one of a few citrus-inspired strains released in “drop” style events which promote exclusivity for the products. This exclusivity, however, means that accurate data about these strains is hard to come by. Not to mention the very “normal” name of Original Lemonnade is quite easy to confuse with other popular strains such as Lemon OG, which only further obfuscates accurate information about this strain. We do know that this light and uplifting high is best when experienced during the daytime or morning hours.

Despite their Sativa dominance, The Original Lemonnade buds typically grow in tight, compact popcorn and peanut shapes. These semi-dense buds are often forest green in color, with innumerous drab orange hairs winding around and through the flower. The surface of this flower is coated with a serious coating of milky-white trichomes which make the bud look nothing short of frosty. As the name suggests, the primary aroma and flavor produced by this bud is that of lemony citrus. The official website for the strain suggests the aorma to be like that of freshly squeezed lemons, while the flavor is a much sweeter taste with a bit of lemon citrus flavor that fades in the exhale.

The Original Lemonnade is a strain we’d recommend consuming during the morning or daytime hours, as its light and heady effects are best experienced when you’re wide awake. This high is often described by consumers to be transcending and uplifting, as it provides a number of beneficial cerebral effects. As soon as you take a few hits of this flower you’re sure to have a stupid grin spread from ear-to-ear as your mood becomes instantly elevated. In this blissful state you’ll feel quite focused on the task at hand as any doubts and anxieties waste away under the weight of this powerful strain.

Those that have reviewed this strain have noted that it gives them not only the focus needed to accomplish their goals, but the necessary energy to do so on days where getting out of bed is a hassle. Some have also noted that this strain has become essential in fighting insomnia, as the “come down” from this high is quite physically relaxing.
