The best CBD edibles in Canada
When cannabis edibles—a category that includes drinks, gummies/soft chews, chocolate, baked goods, tea, dissolvable powder or strips and fizzy drinks—started hitting Canadian shelves in 2019, most companies put their THC goodies out first. THC is psychoactive (it gets you high, sis!) but CBD, the other cannabinoid you’ve probably heard a lot about, doesn’t. CBD has anti-inflammatory and relaxing properties that make it a popular choice for people who are new to weed, or who just aren’t interested in getting buzzed.
I get a lot of requests for recommendations on CBD edibles, so I made it official with this list. Edibles with absolutely zero THC are hard to find, so some of these technically have a touch of THC in them, but I’ve noted which ones do, and I promise it’s such a tiny amount that it’s not noticeable.
I’ve linked to some of the big provincial retailers for easy online shopping, but you can find these products at your local dispensary, too.

Aurora Drift Peach Serene CBD Soft Chews
These popular gummies are hard to get your paws on, so if you see them in stock, jump! They were the first CBD-only gummy I tried and really feel more relaxed when I take them. They’re fruity, but they do have a little bit of a weedy taste.
5 pieces, 10mg of CBD each, $11 at Ontario Cannabis Store.
