Why Cannabis-Infused Popsicles?
Cannabis-infused popsicles are the perfect treat for hot summer days. They offer a discreet and tasty way to enjoy the benefits of cannabis while staying cool. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, having a picnic, or just relaxing at home, these popsicles will provide a refreshing burst of flavor and a pleasant buzz.
What You’ll Need
Before we dive into the recipe, let’s gather the essentials. Here’s what you’ll need to make your cannabis-infused popsicles:
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of your favorite fruit juice or smoothie mix (we recommend fresh, organic options for the best flavor)
- 1-2 teaspoons of cannabis tincture (available at Flora Terra)
- Fresh fruit slices (optional, for added texture and flavor)
- Sweetener to taste (honey, agave, or sugar, if your juice isn’t sweet enough)
- Popsicle molds and sticks
Equipment:
- A blender (if using whole fruits or making a smoothie base)
- Measuring spoons
- Mixing bowl
- Popsicle molds
Step-by-Step Recipe
- Choose Your Base: Select your favorite fruit juice or smoothie mix. Popular choices include orange juice, lemonade, watermelon juice, and mixed berry smoothies. If you’re feeling adventurous, mix and match different fruits for a unique flavor combination.
- Infuse with Cannabis: Add 1-2 teaspoons of cannabis tincture to your juice or smoothie mix. Start with a lower dose if you’re new to edibles or unsure of your tolerance. Remember to check the bottle for dosage and adjust according to the number of popsicles you’re making.
- Sweeten to Taste: If your base isn’t sweet enough, add honey, agave, or sugar to taste. Stir or blend until well combined.
- Add Fresh Fruit: For an extra burst of flavor and a delightful texture, add fresh fruit slices to your popsicle molds. Berries, kiwi, and mango chunks work particularly well.
- Fill the Molds: Pour your infused mixture into the popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion. Insert the popsicle sticks.
- Freeze: Place the molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.
- Enjoy: Once frozen, remove the popsicles from the molds and enjoy! Store any extras in the freezer for a quick and refreshing treat whenever you need one.
Tips for a Perfect Experience
- Dosage Control: If you’re new to cannabis edibles, start with a lower dose and see how you feel after one popsicle. Edibles can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours to take effect, so be patient and avoid consuming too much too quickly.
- Flavor Pairings: Experiment with different fruit combinations to find your favorite flavor. Some great pairings include strawberry-lemon, mango-peach, and blueberry-lime.
- Hydration: Remember to stay hydrated, especially during hot summer days. Cannabis can sometimes cause dry mouth, so keep a glass of water nearby.
