Quick Answer
Why are New Yorkers choosing cannabis edibles over cocktails?
Many New Yorkers are switching to low-dose edibles because they are discreet, smoke-free and portable, which suits strict smoking rules in apartments and public spaces, and they come without a hangover or the empty calories of cocktails. The sober-curious movement is also pushing demand. A 2.5 to 5 mg gummy is a common social dose; wait for the full onset before taking more. Nuna Harvest in Mount Vernon offers microdose gummies, CBN sleep bites and THC drinks.
New York is a city that knows how to celebrate. But lately, more people are putting down the wine glass and
picking up a microdose gummy instead. Why? For busy New Yorkers, low-dose edibles are an easy, discreet
way to unwind — without the hangover.

They’re discreet, portable, and easy to dose. Add the sober-curious movement, and it’s no surprise that
