December is officially in full swing: holiday lights, cozy sweaters, crowded calendars, and that familiar end-of-year energy that makes everything feel just a little extra. And here at Perfect Union, that means one thing: helping you pick the perfect cannabis treats to keep the season bright.

One question we hear all the time this time of year?

“Do cannabis drinks work faster than gummies?”

Great question. And since we love a good holiday breakdown (and a good holiday beverage), we’re diving into the difference between sipping and snacking, how they compare, what they’re great for, and which options you might want to add to your December lineup.

The Case for Cannabis Drinks: Festive Sips With a Faster Kick

Cannabis beverages have gone from “interesting experiment” to “actual holiday essential.” Brands like 5G Pop, Uncle Arnies, and Keef have pushed flavor and functionality into a whole new lane, giving California shoppers an option that’s easy, tasty, and seriously convenient.

Here’s the general idea:

Cannabis drinks are absorbed more quickly than traditional edibles because they begin breaking down in the mouth and stomach before taking the full digestive detour. The experience is still different for everyone, but many people say they feel drinks sooner than gummies.

Holiday Drink Spotlights

5G Pop – Full Flavor and Festive Vibes

If you love nostalgic soda flavors but want a modern twist, the 5G Pop line is basically made for you.

Think classic, fizzy, ice-cold sips: Root Beer, Orange Soda, Grape, Cola, and more reimagined with 10 servings in every 100mg can, it’s built for sharing, pacing, or keeping the good vibes rolling all night. Perfect for holiday hangs, gift exchanges, or those nights when you want something tasty that doesn’t slow you down.

Uncle Arnies – Crowd-Favorite THC Drinks

Uncle Arnies is the drink you pick when you want big flavor and easygoing vibes.

Popular picks include:

  • Cherry Limeade – tart + sweet + tropical fun
  • Iced Tea Lemonade – bright, smooth, refreshing
  • Watermelon Wave – juicy, fruity, pure summertime energy in winter

These 10mg THC drinks are made for a good time: holiday parties, game nights, movie marathons, or simply turning December into your own personal staycation.

The Case for Gummies: Flavorful, Portable, and Totally Snackable

Gummies are the classic for a reason. They’re portable, discreet, consistent, and available in just about every flavor and vibe you can think of. They typically take longer to kick in than drinks because they go through the digestive system, but once they land, the experience tends to feel longer-lasting and steady.

Two gummy lines shining bright this holiday season are Kanha FX and Camino, both with curated blends and terpene-forward flavors perfect for festive nights and winter weekends.

Spotlight: Kanha FX Gummies Tailored, Flavorful, and Function-Forward

Kanha FX takes gummies to a premium level with formulations designed around specific experiences like uplift, relaxation, sleep support, creativity, and more. Just terpene-rich, clean, consistent edibles made for recreational enjoyment.

The whole line is bursting with bold fruit flavors and high-quality cannabis oil, with options for newcomers and seasoned edible fans alike.

They’re a go-to when you want:

  • A steady edible experience
  • Predictable dosing
  • Fun flavor + effect combos
  • A tasty little treat while wrapping presents or winding down

If gummies are your chosen holiday ritual, Kanha FX fits beautifully into December plans.

Spotlight: Camino Wild Cherry Exhilarate Sativa

If December has you bouncing between parties, celebrations, and late-night plans, Camino Wild Cherry Excite gummies are the sidekick you’ll want in your pocket. Each piece delivers 5mg THC paired with bright, sativa-like terpenes and a juicy, sweet-tart cherry flavor that’s basically built for nights when the energy is high and the vibe is playful.

These gummies are crafted for those moments when you want your spirit lifted, your creativity sparked, and your enthusiasm turned up a notch without reaching for a cocktail. Whether you’re staying in for a flirty night on the couch or heading out for a dance-til-you-drop kind of celebration, Wild Cherry Excite fits right in.

It’s perfect for:

  • Holiday parties
  • Nights out
  • Creative projects
  • A little added pep during peak December social season

Plus, Camino is known for designing flavors and blends for every occasion, so it’s easy to explore the line and find your personal “sweet spot.”

So… Which Comes On Faster?

Generally:

  • Cannabis drinks often kick in faster for many people.
  • Gummies often have a longer, steadier experience.

But timing varies from person to person, so the best choice depends on your vibe.

Go with Drinks If You Want:

  • A quicker onset
  • A festive beverage in your hand
  • Something session-friendly and shareable
  • A fun alternative to alcohol at parties

Go with Gummies If You Want:

  • A consistent, reliable edible experience
  • Easy dosing and portability
  • Flavor-forward treats
  • Something you can enjoy anywhere, anytime

Honestly? December is the perfect month to keep both on hand.
