Strain: Cereal Milk
Type: Hybrid
 
Cereal Milk is a roughly 50/50 indica/sativa hybrid that has become a standout favorite in the modern cannabis scene since its debut around 2019. Bred by Powerzzzup Genetics in collaboration with the iconic Cookies brand, this cultivar delivers an unforgettable sensory experience that lives up to its nostalgic name.
 
Genetics & Lineage
Cereal Milk is created by crossing Y Life (a cross of Girl Scout Cookies × Cherry Pie) with Snowman (a sativa-leaning phenotype of Girl Scout Cookies). This elite Cookies-family lineage combines the sweet, dessert-like qualities of GSC with the fruity, cherry-kush notes of Cherry Pie, resulting in a potent and flavorful hybrid that's become a staple among connoisseurs.
 
Appearance
The buds are dense, tapered, and heart-shaped, featuring olive-green to light green hues with minty undertones. They're generously coated in frosty white crystal trichomes, often accented by vibrant dark orange pistils (hairs). The flowers appear heavily resinous, giving them a sticky, sparkling look that's visually striking and indicative of high potency.
 
Aroma & Flavor Profile
Cereal Milk earns its name with one of the most distinctive terpene profiles in cannabis. The aroma hits with a loud, sweet blast reminiscent of the leftover milk in a bowl of sugary breakfast cereal — think creamy vanilla ice cream, sweet milk, and hints of fruity cereal grains. Subtle notes of lemon zest, cinnamon, gas, and earthy undertones round out the bouquet.
On the palate, it delivers a smooth, creamy inhale with dominant flavors of sweet vanilla milk, fruity cereal, and ice cream, often followed by a subtle berry or citrus tang on the exhale. Many users describe it as tasting remarkably close to Fruit Loops or sugary cereal milk — decadent, dessert-like, and incredibly moreish.
Dominant terpenes typically include caryophyllene (earthy, peppery), limonene (citrusy), and myrcene (herbal, relaxing), creating that signature creamy-fruity-gas combination.
 
Effects & Potency
With a THC content that typically ranges from 18-25% (often landing in the 21-23% range for top phenotypes, and some testing even higher), Cereal Milk is a potent option best suited for those with some tolerance. CBD levels remain low, usually under 1-1.2%.The high begins with a euphoric, uplifting cerebral rush that brings happiness, mental clarity, creativity, and sociability — perfect for daytime or evening use without heavy sedation. As it settles in (often described as a "creeper" that builds gradually), a soothing body relaxation emerges, melting away tension while keeping the mind engaged and happy. Users frequently report feeling calm yet focused, giggly, relaxed, and blissfully content — ideal for social settings, creative pursuits, or unwinding after a long day.
