I tried Mood's Purple Punch THCa Flower recently and loved it. Some strains are meant to energize, while others exist to bring your body back to baseline, soothe sore muscles, and calm the mind.

Purple Punch from Mood’s Soothing collection falls into the latter category—a delicious dessert strain that’s just as flavorful as it is effective.

After a tough leg day at the gym, I knew I needed something potent yet smooth to help my body recover.

My plan was simple: a slow, relaxing smoke session, deep stretching, and a solid homemade meal to refuel. The moment I opened Mood’s Purple Punch bag, I knew I had picked the perfect strain for the night.

Trying the Purple Punch Strain

When I unzipped the heat-sealed packaging, an intense aroma of tart Kool-Aid, earthy blueberries, and vanilla rushed out. The buds were dense, resinous, and coated in trichomes, with deep purple and bright green hues intertwined.

Before rolling up, I took a moment to break apart the flower in my grinder. The stickiness of the buds made it clear that this was a fresh, well-cured batch. Each turn of the grinder released even more of its rich aroma, filling my space with notes of grape candy, herbal spice, and creamy vanilla.

I rolled a fat joint, took my time lighting up, and inhaled slowly and deeply. The first pull was incredibly smooth, enlivening me with a sweet, fruity flavor that felt like inhaling blueberry muffins with a hint of OG Kush spice.

Purple Punch is a cross of Larry OG and Grand Daddy Purple strains.

Flavors, Aromas, Visuals

Flavors

Purple Punch is a delicious dessert strain through and through.

It delivers a combination of creamy vanilla, sweet grape candy, and earthy blueberries, with a spicy OG Kush kick on the exhale. The flavor is complex yet balanced, making every hit just as enjoyable as the last.

Aromas

The complex aroma of Purple Punch is nothing short of intoxicating.

Expect a strong scent of tart Kool-Aid, blueberries, and vanilla with subtle herbal undertones. As the buds break apart, the sweet and earthy notes intensify, giving you a preview of the flavorful experience ahead.

Visuals

Purple Punch’s resinous buds are as visually stunning as they are potent. The flower is densely packed, drenched in trichomes, and streaked with deep purple and dark green tones.

Bright orange hairs add a beautiful contrast, making this strain an excellent choice for those who appreciate top-tier bud aesthetics.

Strength & Effects Of This Delicious Dessert Strain

By the time I reached the halfway point of my joint, the high was in full effect.

A warm, euphoric sensation crept up from my spine, melting into my shoulders and thighs—exactly where I needed relief after an intense workout.

Instead of an immediate couch lock, the high unfolded in waves.

The first stage was cerebral, with a light, blissful head buzz that cleared away any lingering stress. I felt present, uplifted, and tuned into the music playing in the background.

Then came the body high, a slow, deep relaxation that settled into my muscles, relieving tension and soreness. My post-gym aches dissolved, and I could feel my breathing naturally slow as my body adjusted to a calmer state.

This wasn’t a strain that knocked me out immediately—it helped me feel the perfect balance of relaxation and awareness, making it ideal for evening recovery without complete sedation.

The Perfect Pairing: Stretching, Cooking & Unwinding

Once my body fully embraced the high, I rolled out my yoga mat and started a slow, focused stretching session.

Purple Punch enhanced every movement, allowing me to appreciate every step as I deepened my stretches and released tension I didn’t even know I was holding.

After stretching, it was time to refuel.

Cooking while blissfully relaxed is one of life’s simple pleasures, and Purple Punch made it even better.

The strain’s calming and euphoric effects turned meal prep into a sensory experience, enhancing both flavors and enjoyment.

For dinner, I made seared salmon with garlic parmesan, roasted sweet potatoes, and steamed broccoli.

As the aromas of roasted garlic and buttery salmon filled the air, they mixed with the lingering scent of sweet Purple Punch smoke—creating an unforgettable atmosphere.

The meal itself tasted even more delicious than usual, and the combination of rich, savory flavors and soothing cannabis effects made the experience truly satisfying.

By the time I finished eating, my body felt completely relaxed, my mind at ease, and I was ready to sink into the couch and enjoy the rest of my evening.

The one-two punch of euphoria and deep body relaxation makes it a perfect strain for unwinding.
