Blue Sherbert strain guide
Blue Sherbert is a hybrid of Blue Cookies and Sunset Sherbet, sometimes listed as Blueberry Sherbet. People know it for a blueberry and citrus smell and an uplifted, relaxed feel. It's not as widely documented as its parents.
Where does Blue Sherbert come from?
Blue Sherbert crosses Blue Cookies, a blueberry-scented strain from the Cookies family, with Sunset Sherbet, the berry and citrus hybrid behind Gelato. One strain database credits The Plug Genetics as the breeder, while another database calls its origin unclear and points to the San Francisco Bay Area.
The spelling varies: you'll see Sherbert and Sherbet. Don't confuse it with Blue Sunset Sherbert from Barney's Farm, which is a different cross of Sunset Sherbet and Purple Punch.
What does Blue Sherbert smell and taste like?
Blueberry comes first, backed by mixed berry and a bright citrus note. Some people also notice flowers, wood, pine or a little gas under the fruit.
One strain database lists myrcene as its main terpene, with pinene and limonene after it. Myrcene gives the earthy base, pinene the touch of pine and limonene the citrus lift. The taste is usually sweet and fruity, with a soft, creamy finish from the Sherbet side.
Blue Sherbert effects: what people report
People most often describe Blue Sherbert as uplifted, euphoric and relaxed. Some mention feeling creative or focused at first, while others mostly notice a calm, happy mood.
These are experiences people report, not promises. How it feels depends on the product, how much you have and your own tolerance. Dry mouth, dry eyes and dizziness are the most common complaints.
How strong is Blue Sherbert?
Few sources publish a THC figure for Blue Sherbert. One strain database lists it at about 19% THC with essentially no CBD, which puts it in the moderate to high range.
Because the published data is thin, the label on your product is especially important here. Start with a small amount and wait before having more.
