Cannabis Tea

Ingredients:

• 1 gram of decarboxylated cannabis (or more, depending on desired potency)

• 1 cup water

• 1 tablespoon coconut oil, butter, or another fat source (to help extract the cannabinoids)

• Tea bag of your choice (optional)

• Honey, sugar, or other sweeteners to taste (optional)

Equipment:

• Saucepan

• Strainer or cheesecloth

• Teapot or mug

Instructions:

1. Decarboxylate the Cannabis:

   • Preheat your oven to 245°F (120°C).

   • Break up the cannabis into small pieces and spread it evenly on a baking sheet.

   • Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. The cannabis should be golden brown. This process activates the THC and CBD in the cannabis.

2. Boil Water:

   • Bring 1 cup of water to a boil in a saucepan.

3. Add Fat Source:

   • Add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, butter, or another fat source to the boiling water. This step is crucial because cannabinoids are fat-soluble, and the fat helps to extract them from the cannabis.

4. Add Cannabis:

   • Once the fat has melted and mixed with the water, add the decarboxylated cannabis to the saucepan.

5. Simmer:

   • Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

6. Strain:

   • After simmering, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a teapot or mug, separating the liquid from the plant material.

7. Optional: Add Tea Bag:

   • If you prefer, you can add a tea bag of your choice to the strained cannabis tea for additional flavor. Let it steep for a few minutes according to the tea’s instructions.

8. Sweeten to Taste:

   • Add honey, sugar, or other sweeteners to taste if desired.

Notes:

• Dosage: Start with a small amount of cannabis and see how it affects you before increasing the dosage.

• Storage: Leftover cannabis tea can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Reheat before drinking.

• Effects: The onset of effects from cannabis tea may be slower compared to smoking or vaping, typically taking 30 minutes to 2 hours to feel the effects.

Enjoy your cannabis tea responsibly and ensure it is clearly labeled and stored away from children and pets.
