Whether you are using regular weed or CBD weed, this recipe can work with either! 

 

The Health Benefits of Cannabis Tea

Why bother with cannabis tea when you can simply roll one up? We all know that cannabis has countless health benefits. However, smoking is most definitely not the most healthy way to consume THC. Aside from the fact that your lungs are steering clear of smoke and your body is getting additional hydration, here are some health benefits of cannabis tea.

 

Take a sip instead of a ‘chill pill’: First off, the relaxing effects of a hot cup… You cannot beat it! It’s a great way to unwind after a long day. Cannabis tea is a fantastic alternative to other toxic options for relaxing. Ditch your after-work wine and brew up something more suitable for the mind, body and soul.

Pain Management in a Cup: Secondly, the pain and inflammation management. If you’re dealing with anything from PMS to chronic back pain, cannabis tea delivers cannabinoids straight to the body’s receptors, offering targeted relief in the most gentle manner.

Sip Into Slumber: Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, improved sleep. For restless sleepers, cannabis tea can be a soothing nightcap, helping to calm the mind and body for a deeper sleep. Suffering from insomnia? Do yourself a favour and brew up some of this tea!

These are just some of the benefits that make consuming cannabis via tea a desirable option, especially for those looking to alleviate symptoms without having to spark up. Okay, enough about the benefits! Let’s move on to the 5 step recipe we’ve got for you.

 

The Concoction: Crafting Your Own Cannabis Tea

Brewing your own pot-infused tea doesn’t require a lengthy process and certainly doesn’t need to be as complex as rocket science or witchcraft. Here’s a delightful and easy recipe that’ll prove you can take good care of yourself with minimal effort.

 

Ingredients for Cannabis Tea:

 

• 1 gram of cannabis buds for milder tea or half an eighth for any day you have to adult, to a quarter of an eight for those much-needed “chill the f*ck out” weekends
• 1 teaspoon of butter or coconut oil
• Choice of tea (the more flavorful the better to mask the Cannabis taste-get creative here)
• Honey or sweetener of your choice (optional)

 

How to Brew Cannabis Tea: 5 Easy Steps!

Step 1: Decarboxylate Your Cannabis

This step is key to activating the cannabinoids which will give your tea its potency. Preheat your oven to 240°F, grind your cannabis finely, and spread it on a baking sheet. Make sure your ground-up cannabis is very spread out and none of it is piled on top of one another. Pop it in for 25-30 minutes until it’s light brown.

 

Step 2: The Cannabis-Infused Your Oil

In a saucepan, mix your teaspoon of oil (we recommend coconut oil) or butter with the decarboxylated cannabis. Let it simmer on low heat for around an hour, stirring occasionally.

Step 3: Regular Tea Routine

As your oil simmering comes to an end, it’s time to brew your choice of tea. In a separate pot, boil water and let your tea steep for the recommended time. Get creative with this by adding other sleepy herbs that can work synergistically with your THC, such as Valerian or Ashwagandha.

Step 4: The Perfect Pour

Strain the cannabis oil into your brewed tea, mix it up, and pour yourself a luxurious cup of Cannabis tea.

Step 5: Sweeten the Deal

Finally, add honey or your sweetener of choice to conjure up a delicious beverage that will tingle your taste buds and your mind. Life is short, enjoy something sweet!

 

 

 

 

 

Tips for Customizing Your Cannabis Tea Adventure

There are endless ways to customize your cannabis tea experience. Here are a few:

Flavour Fusions: Let’s talk about favlour pairing. Consider infusing your tea with additional flavours by adding a twist of lemon, a dash of lavender, or a pinch of cinnamon. Each one complements the cannabis flavour profile, turning your tea into a sensory adventure. Or experiment and look into nature for inspiration and cultivate the perfect cup for the season! Winter, spring, summer and autumn all claim their own spices and herbs. Sync with the seasons with your next cup of Cannabis tea!

Grow Your Own Goodies: For the green-thumbed enthusiasts, you can grow your own Cannabis plants at home with high-quality cannabis seeds. The variety of cannabis seeds available means you can tailor your tea to fit your mood. This is definitely a next-level tip but a great one nonetheless!

Potency Play: Adjusting the strength of your brew is as simple as changing the quantity of cannabis or the strain you use. Some sips may require a robust effect, while others might want to keep it light. It’s all about setting the mood! Additionally, if you are simply seeking out the benefits but have got some business to take care of, opt for CBD tea. You can use the exact recipe and instructions above but simply switch the cannabis out for CBD weed.

In Conclusion: It high Time for a Tea Revolution
