4 Cannabis-Based Mother's Day Gifts for the Chill Mama in Your Life
After all, the best Mother's Day gifts are the ones that help mom catch a break — even for a fleeting moment of relaxation.
Kim Kardashian is preparing for the arrival of baby No. 4, so she bought a minivan. JK! She had a CBD-theme baby shower. That's because nothing says relax-I-got-this like cannabis, and there's also no buzzier ingredient du jour. (With due respect to celery juice and collagen.) So this Mother's Day, show the cool mama in your life that you care about her peace of mind with the best — and most celebrity-endorsed — cannabis-based gifts out there. (And then reward yourself with one for yourself — no judgement.)
1. Kurvana Vape Pen
Kurvana recently launched a new line of vape pens focused on full-spectrum CBD combined with all-natural fruits and botanicals. You may have seen it on influencers' Instagrams from such parties as the Revolve Festival during Coachella — and yes, even on Kim's Instagram. That's because, when Kourtney Kardashian launched her new lifestyle site Poosh, she included personalized Eucalyptus Mint Kurvana CBD pens in the gift bags for celebs in honor of the unveiling. Kurvana is exclusively available at California state-licensed retailers, and it's the best-selling vape pen in MedMen locations; as well, a nationally available hemp-derived product will be available online soon.
2. Grön Cannabis Chocolate
The online marketplace HelloMD (which thoroughly vets every product partner to ensure safety, which should be some comfort to Dr. Oz) provided the gift bags at Kim's shower. (HelloMD also had doctors present at the event — just in case.) Included with the goodies was Grön cannabis chocolate — and you can scoop up a dark chocolate cannabis bar as a gift for $20. Think hand-crafted, fair-trade sourced, 72 percent cacao dark chocolate infused with organic hemp extract and topped with freeze-dried raspberries. And the bar presents beautifully as a gift, too — almost like a little piece of edible, chill-inducing artwork. (Fun fact: Grön also provided a chocolate fountain at Kim's CBD shower!)
3. Mr. Moxey's Mints
Or how about something she can keep in her purse for those moments when she might just be thinking, "I need a chill pill — and a breath refresher — stat." Mr. Moxey's mints were also in Kim's gift bags from HelloMD, and they come in varieties like peppermint and cinnamon, with both relaxing and energizing varieties available.
4. VENA Wellness CBD Tinctures
The gold standard of Real Housewives' cannabis brands? Tamra and Eddie Judge's new CBD product line, VENA Wellness. Eddie recently told The Feast that the CBD tinctures ($44.95) are among his favorite gifts to give loved ones from the collection — but then again, the capsules are great too... "Just drop the CBD oil under your tongue and it absorbs just a little bit faster than the capsules," Eddie said.
