There’s something charming about the humble preroll. It’s simple, it’s fun, it’s a self-contained sesh, and the fun factor is even higher when it’s a playful sativa wrapped up. That was the mindset that led me through a weekend afternoon after finding the Orange Soda Preroll by Progressive Treatment Solutions on the Consume Chicago menu.

Orange Soda is a sativa leaning hybrid cross of Jilly Bean and Chem D. This preroll tested at 19.31% THCa, 0.64% THC, and 20.44% total cannabinoids. The most abundant terpenes were b-myrcene, a-pinene, and limonene.

The aroma opened with (and was almost completely dominated by) the scent of fresh orange peel. The rest of the aroma took some real exploration to sniff out, and I eventually identified notes of lavender and cinnamon lurking beneath the heavy orange.

The flavor gave up its secrets with a lot less resistance. I found fresh hops, cinnamon, and cedar alongside the tangy orange taste promised by the strain name.

Orange Soda provided a hit of energy both mentally and physically. The headspace after half of the 1 gram joint was clear and spacious, allowing me to think clearly and quickly without running away into anxiety or paranoia.

The body high was light and highlighted by waves of tingly euphoria at its peak.  I could see fitting Orange Soda into my work schedule easily or starting my day as part of a joint and coffee combo.
