You deserve to be high, even if going for a walk afterward means you’ll suffer from heat stroke.
That said, thanks to the cannabis renaissance, there’s no lack of ways to get high this summer and beat the heat. Lucky for you, we’ve tested the products and know the hacks to ensure you’re chill in every way possible. The next time the heat just won’t let up and you need to check out and cool off, try one of these cannabis products instead.
