Vegan-Friendly Edibles From Your Denver Dispensary


August 22, 2018

When it comes to edibles, there are dozens of delicious items available at your local weed shops in Denver. However, if you follow a special diet, finding edibles can be particularly difficult. Even with veganism on the rise, finding edible cannabis products that contain no animal-based ingredients can still take a bit of effort. To make things a bit easier, we’ve put together a few great categories to consider when heading to the dispensary.

Hard Candies

Though gummi candies are one of the most popular cannabis infused sweets available, they’re not the only ones. If you have a passion for fruit flavors and a desire to enjoy a nice high, consider trying cannabis infused hard candies. The options made by Canyon Cultivation are both delicious and come in fun flavors like strawberry lemonade and sour watermelon. Best of all, they’re completely vegan and made from non-GMO ingredients.

Infused Coffees

Everyone loves a daily cup of coffee, but did you know you could enjoy your favorite beverage with a dose of cannabis? Bring home a bottle of cannabis infused coffee and dress it up however you want. Add coconut milk for a creamy and rich late, serve it on ice to beat the heat on a summer afternoon, or opt for decaf to enjoy your high after a delicious dessert. As long as you don’t put dairy-based creamer in your coffee, you’ll be able to enjoy a delicious vegan-friendly beverage and high.

Chocolate

Sure, many of the infused chocolate bars on the market are made out of milk chocolate, but there are still a fair number that opt for delicious dark chocolate instead. The Dixie Dark Chocolate Bar from Dixie Elixirs is vegan and made with a rich and decadent dark chocolate that both vegans and non-vegans are sure to love. A word of caution—if you’re considering other chocolate bars, take care to read the ingredient labels. Not all dark chocolate is milk-free and some infused bars use milk in their fillings.

Flavored Tinctures

Believe it or not, flavored tinctures exist and are a delicious way to get high without smoking or hitting the sugar high some other treats can cause. You’ll be able to choose between flavors like cinnamon and vanilla or fruity concoctions like watermelon and strawberry. The tinctures are perfect for individuals wanting complete control over the amount of THC ingested at any given time as the liquid can easily be dispensed drop by drop.
