November Favorites: Budtenders’ Highly Recommended Picks

by | Oct 30, 2025

November’s rolling in and so is the comfort. The days are shorter, the hoodies are thicker, and there’s something about this season that makes good weed feel even better.

The VRC crew has been deep in cozy mode, and this month’s Budtender Picks reflect that. We’ve got zesty drinks to perk you up, sweet edibles that feel like dessert, and flower that hits with flavor and strength. Every pick is meant to keep you lifted while the temps drop.

Let’s get into VRC’s November Budtenders’ Picks.

Lil Davinci’s November Pick:
Alpine Splash by NOT YOUR FATHER

Close-up of “Not Your Father’s” cannabis-infused beverages on a store shelf, featuring Alpine Splash (lemon-lime flavor) and Cherry Cola, each labeled with 100mg THC and infused with live resin.

A crisp lemon-lime cannabis-infused drink made with live resin for a smooth, full-spectrum high. Each can packs 100mg THC and 100mg caffeine, delivering an uplifting yet balanced experience that’s both energizing and relaxing.

The flavor is clean, zesty, and refreshing without being too sweet. Effects kick in around 20–40 minutes and last 3–5 hours. Potent but smooth, it’s perfect for daytime use, creative sessions, or social hangouts.

If you’re new to 100mg beverages, start with a quarter to half a can, you’ll still feel it.

Sincerely,
Davinci

Tedi’s November Pick:
Berry Tempting 10mg by MADE

The MADE Flight Bites Berry Tempting are indica-strain gummies. A strawberry gummy layer over a chocolate disk makes for a delectable lil’ treat!

Like Pringles, “you can’t eat just one!”

With calming effects, a potential for couch-lock may occur depending on consumption amount. Enjoy!

David’s November Pick:
Japanese Grapez by KINGSTONE ROYAL

For flavor lovers: if you love grape/candy-fruit profiles, this could check the box. With some premium fuel/diesel components, it may behave differently than a pure candy-grape strain.

High-potency infused flower that I can’t put away!

The diamond-encrusted/THCA infusion may provide enhanced flavor, aroma, and effect compared to standard flower.

That’s the vibe this month: smooth, flavorful, and built for chill season. From the citrusy buzz of Alpine Splash to the mellow body high of Berry Tempting, all the way to infused flower that stays burning long after the last leaf falls… this lineup is solid.

The holidays are coming, so now’s the perfect time to stock up, unwind, and enjoy the calm before the chaos. Swing by VRC, grab the good stuff, and let’s make this November one to remember. Alternatively, you can shop online or check out some of our sweet deals this month while you’re here.

You bring the playlist. We’ve got everything else.
