Cannabis edibles have moved far beyond the basic pot brownie. Today’s infused cannabis products include gummies, drinks, and other options made with different THC levels, cannabinoid ratios, flavors, and serving sizes.
This variety gives you more control over your experience. You might choose a low-dose gummy, a CBD-to-THC blend, or a resealable drink that can be divided into multiple servings. Understanding the differences can help you choose the right Illicit product for your preferences.
What Are Infused Cannabis Products?
Infused cannabis products are foods or drinks made with cannabinoids extracted from cannabis. THC is the main intoxicating cannabinoid, but infused products may also contain CBD, CBN, or a blend of several cannabinoids.
At Illicit, we make two main types of cannabis infused products:
THC edibles like caramels, candies, and gummies in different potencies
Power Chords cannabis shots in resealable bottles
These products offer smoke-free ways to consume cannabis, but they differ in serving size, onset, cannabinoid content, and overall experience.
How Are Cannabis Gummies Made?
Cannabis gummies are made by incorporating a cannabis extract into a gummy mixture. In licensed production, the extract must be distributed evenly so that each piece contains the amount of THC or other cannabinoids shown on the label.
Illicit’s All Natural Gummies contain 10 mg THC per piece and 100 mg per package. Fruity Pebbles combines tropical fruit with candy-like notes, while Triple Berry features strawberry, raspberry, and blueberry flavors.
These gummies provide a typical 10 mg serving, but we also make products for those who prefer lower or higher potencies. Always check the label to understand how much THC is in the entire package and in each gummy.
THC Infused Edibles Come in Different Potencies
The dosage of THC infused edibles can vary considerably. Illicit gummies come in multiple strengths, ranging from low-dose options to high-potency products intended for experienced adults.
Our Low-Dose Anytime Gummies contain 2.5 mg THC per piece and 50 mg per package. Strawberry Kiwi offers a sweet, tropical flavor, while Green Apple delivers a tart alternative. The smaller serving size makes these products suitable for people interested in microdosing or gradually learning how edibles affect them.
Other Illicit gummies contain considerably more THC. Our higher-potency products are intended for adults who already understand their tolerance, not beginners selecting their first edible.
Before consuming a gummy, check:
THC per piece
Total THC in the package
Number of pieces in the package
Suggested serving size
Additional cannabinoids
Traditional gummies may take 30 minutes to two hours to produce noticeable effects. Start with a small serving and allow enough time before deciding whether to consume more.
What Are Ratio Edibles?
Some infused cannabis products combine THC with CBD, CBN, or other cannabinoids. The ratio on the label tells you the relative amount of each cannabinoid in the product.
Illicit Wild Strawberry Daytime Gummies have a 5:1 CBD-to-THC ratio, while its Mango Anytime Gummies contain a 10:1 CBD-to-THC blend. Both formulas contain more CBD than THC, giving adults alternatives to conventional THC-dominant gummies.
Peaches & Dream features a 2:2:1 ratio of CBN, CBD, and THC. When three cannabinoids appear in a formula, check both their order and the milligrams of each one per serving.
Your tolerance, metabolism, recent meals, and previous cannabis experience can all influence how a ratio product feels. Treat every unfamiliar cannabis infused formula as a new product, even if you have tried other gummies.
What Are Cannabis Infused Drinks?
Cannabis infused drinks are another great smoke-free alternative to flower and vapes. Illicit Power Chords are concentrated, fruit-flavored THC shots that can be consumed on their own or mixed into another nonalcoholic beverage.
Our Power Chord flavors include:
Sour Apple
Grape
Cherry Limeade
Berry
Anytime (Unflavored)
Peach Mango
Tropical Punch
Lemonade
The 2-ounce versions contain 100 mg THC per bottle, while select 4-ounce bottles contain 200 mg THC. These high-potency bottles are intended to provide multiple servings for most adults.
Because each bottle is resealable, you can measure a smaller portion and save the rest for later. Always check the THC content and serving measurements rather than assuming the entire bottle represents one dose.
Do Cannabis Infused Drinks Work Faster Than Gummies?
Many cannabis infused drinks use emulsions that break cannabis oil into very small droplets. This can allow the body to process the cannabinoids differently than it processes a traditional gummy.
As a result, drinks may begin producing effects sooner than conventional THC infused edibles. However, onset still varies based on the product, serving size, metabolism, recent meals, and individual tolerance.
Neither product is automatically better. Your preferred option depends on how much THC you want, how you would like to consume it, and how long you are comfortable waiting for effects.
How to Read an Edible Label
Always check the labels when comparing infused cannabis products. Start with the THC amount per serving, then check the total amount in the package.
You should also look for:
CBD, CBN, or other cannabinoid amounts
The order of cannabinoids in a ratio
Serving-size instructions
Ingredient and allergen information
Storage recommendations
Batch and testing information
Do not use package size to estimate potency. A small Power Chord bottle may contain 100 mg THC, while one Low-Dose Anytime Gummy contains 2.5 mg. Always read the complete label to prevent accidentally consuming more THC than intended.
