Pink Lemonade

Pink Lemonade is hybrid flower, with weights beginning at 1 g and ending at 28 g. Leafly describes a Pink Lemonade strain crossed from Lemon Skunk and Purple Kush, and AllBud lists the same two among its parents.

Several crosses share the Pink Lemonade name

Our Pink Lemonade strain guide traces the name most often to Lemon Skunk and Purple Kush, and says several different crosses share it. Leafly’s page notes that a different cross, Strawberry Fields x Sunset Sherbet, is also marketed as Pink Lemonade. AllBud’s Pink Lemonade is 80% indica and 20% sativa, which it labels indica dominant hybrid.

Lemon, grapefruit and a minty tea note

Leafly describes a fruity aroma with a minty, tea-like note, with lemon and grapefruit flavours coming through on the exhale; its flavour tags are grapefruit, lemon and citrus. One Leafly reviewer says it tastes much like pink lemonade without an overwhelming lemon note, and smells sweet. In our Pink Lemonade guide, Steven De Guzman’s tip is to breathe out slowly through the nose so the citrus comes through.

AllBud describes sweet, sugary fruit with lemon-candy accents and a touch of mild earth, over an aroma of sour earth, sharp citrus and a hint of berry fruitiness.

Small, frosted buds

Leafly quotes growers describing small buds heavily frosted with trichomes, with jade-green leaf and bronze hairs. AllBud describes spade-shaped, bright, light mint-green buds wearing a thick, frosty coat of golden-toned trichomes over light orange hairs.

Ocimene first, and the effects reviewers report

Leafly’s dominant terpene is ocimene, followed by pinene and myrcene. Leafly’s reading is 18% THC with 1% CBG and above-average potency, and AllBud’s range is 17% to 22%.

On Leafly, focused, energetic and creative lead the feelings reviewers report. AllBud’s text describes an energetic boost that feels euphoric and slightly focused, though easily distracted, later settling into a dreamy, introspective, creative mood, and it calls the effects surprisingly cerebral for an indica-dominant strain. Health Canada’s lower-risk use guidelines carry one driving figure: at least 6 hours after cannabis.
