Weed + Watermelon? Summery Cannabis Recipes to Try

DIY Edibles for July by Flora Terra Dispensary, Santa Rosa

Nothing says summer in Sonoma County like backyard barbecues, sunshine, and fresh watermelon. But what happens when you add a little cannabis to your seasonal favorites? You get weed-infused treats that taste like summer and feel like vacation.

At Flora Terra, your go-to Santa Rosa dispensary, we’re big fans of DIY cannabis recipes — especially when they’re simple, refreshing, and perfect for sharing (responsibly). Here are three summer cannabis recipes that’ll turn heads at your next BBQ or chill-out session.

1. Watermelon THC Gummies

Juicy, sweet, and slightly nostalgic — watermelon gummies are the ultimate summer edible. Here’s a simple version you can infuse at home.

What You’ll Need:

• 1 cup watermelon juice (freshly blended + strained)
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp honey or agave
• 2 tbsp unflavored gelatin
• 1–2 ml cannabis tincture (like Chemistry 1:1 THC:CBD)
• Silicone gummy molds

Instructions:

1. In a saucepan, heat the watermelon juice, lemon juice, and honey over low heat.
2. Slowly stir in the gelatin and whisk until fully dissolved (no lumps).
3. Remove from heat, stir in your tincture, and mix thoroughly.
4. Pour into molds and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
5. Enjoy responsibly — label them and keep out of reach of kids and pets!

Dosing Tip: Start low and calculate based on your tincture’s potency. Divide total mg by number of gummies for accuracy.

2. Infused Lemonade (Cannabis-Style Arnold Palmer)

Beat the heat with a citrusy, cannabis-infused twist on a summer classic.

What You’ll Need:

• 1 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 cup honey or sugar
• 3–4 cups cold water
• Ice + fresh mint (optional)
• Cannabis tincture or water-soluble THC (try Uncle Arnie’s Iced Tea Lemonade 10mg for a shortcut)

Instructions:

1. Mix lemon juice and honey/sugar until dissolved.
2. Add cold water and stir well.
3. Stir in your cannabis tincture or add a measured dose of a pre-infused beverage.
4. Pour over ice, garnish with mint, and sip slowly.

Pro Tip: Want to serve a crowd? Make a batch and use low-dose servings (2–5mg THC) to keep things friendly.

3. Campfire S’mores with KIVA Chocolate

Keywords: cannabis edibles, weed s’mores, KIVA chocolate, summer cannabis treats

Planning a bonfire or beach night? Skip the Hershey’s and swap in KIVA Cannabis-Infused Chocolate Bars for next-level s’mores.

What You’ll Need:

• Graham crackers
• Marshmallows
• KIVA Milk Chocolate or Midnight Mint Bar (5mg per square)
• Skewers or a campfire stick

Instructions:

1. Roast your marshmallow until golden and gooey.
2. Sandwich it between two graham crackers with 1 square of KIVA chocolate.
3. Let the chocolate melt, then enjoy your infused dessert under the stars.

Pro Tip: Start with 1 square per s’more (5mg THC), and wait at least 1 hour before consuming more.
