I reached for my GPen, slipped in the Cookies’ Grenadine Gio Pod and settled onto my couch. I took my first long puff of the day and felt immediately uplifted by the taste alone. This Grenadine Gio Pod tasted like fresh oranges drizzled with honey and finished with slightly herbal and earthy undertones. The mouthfeel was pleasant and smooth, and there was virtually no icky aftertaste.

Needless to say, I continued to happily puff away until I felt just the right amount of high. Already feeling my mood elevate a tad, I cued up some Marvin Gaye and started my usual Sunday cleaning ritual.

To test the efficacy of this tasty THC vape, I decided to start with my most hated task: the dishes. As I scrubbed away that morning’s breakfast potatoes, I found myself swaying and crooning along with my playlist (much to my neighbor’s chagrin, I’m sure) and my troubles were a distant memory. My mind felt clear and creative, while my body felt energized yet relaxed—you could almost say I was enjoying doing the dishes with this vape in hand.

“I knew I was high when my plants seemed to encourage me along the way, cheering for me as I watered each one with care.”

Now fully rooted in my happy place, I made the trek to my basement to get some laundry started. On my way back up, I could hear the soul music trailing through the hallway as I lazily made my way up the stairs and finally re-entered my apartment.

The descent to my basement was more strenuous than I anticipated, so it was definitely time to re-up on my Cookies GPen. I took a few more long, sweetly herbaceous puffs and was sufficiently high for the next step of my regimen: tending to my plants.

Even though it’s a task I look forward to each week, it felt so much nicer with the added bonus of vaping. I danced from plant to plant, gently pruning the leaves and spraying them with a delicate mist of fresh water. I knew I was high when my plants seemed to encourage me along the way, cheering for me as I watered each one with care.

When I came to the last plant, I looked around with a pleased smile on my face. Everything was brimming with life, neat and tidy, and perfectly organized for my week. I was so at ease that I almost forgot about my early morning woes—and my laundry. Back down to the cave I went, and back up I trudged.

“I was so at ease that I almost forgot about my early morning woes—and my laundry. ”

With a full basket of laundry in my hands, I burst into my front door as Teddy Pendergrass sang a romantic tune. I dumped the basket on my bed and deemed it was time for a few more puffs of my vaporizer to really finish my Sunday activities on a high note. I took a few more drags and all seemed right in the world. Sorting my laundry was a breeze, and I was ready for the grand finale: light up a little sage and cleanse my space.

With windows and doors open, I went from room to room, citing my intentions for the week and energetically ridding my space of any lingering bad ju-ju. I don’t even know if I’m doing this right, but it just feels good, especially when high.

After I let the sage work its magic, I dramatically collapsed on the couch, satisfied with both my work and the Grenadine Gio Pod.

However, I couldn’t help but notice that my high seemed to always slip away as quickly as it flooded in. I often found myself throughout the day, reaching for a couple more drags to achieve the same initial buzz. Aside from a little dry mouth, that is one of the only negatives about this flavorful vape.

The flavor and pleasantly chill high are definitely the standouts in this product that will have you coming back for more. The high is not groundbreaking in its effects, but it leaves you feeling exactly what you would expect from a hybrid: relaxed, energized, and ready to take on anything. When all is said and done, consider me a fan—especially on Sundays.
