Ingredients
  

  • 500ml tequila
  • 3.5 - 7g cannabis

Instructions
 

  • Decarboxylate your weed to activate the THC. If you do not want to infuse the psychoactive effects into your tequila then skip this step. If you do not decarb first, you will only infuse the aromas and flavour profile of the weed into the tequila.
    Decarb instructions: Preheat your oven to 240F/115C. Spread your cannabis in an even layer onto an oven dish or tray then cover with foil. Place into the preheated oven for 40 minutes then remove and allow to cool down before removing the foil.
  • Grind or crumble the decarboxylated cannabis then add it to the bottle of tequila. If you are infusing a small amount, you can use a glass mason jar instead of a bottle. Make sure the bottle/jar is tightly sealed then shake it for 2-3 minutes.
  • Put the bottle/jar in a dark area like a cupboard and let it infuse for up to 1-2 weeks. Shake it vigorously each day to help extract the cannabinoids and terpenes from the weed. The longer you allow the weed tequila mixture to infuse, the more pronounced flavour profile and psychoactive effects.
    If you don't want to wait that long for it to infuse, you can do a fast infusion on the stove that only takes a few hours. Heat the weed tequila mixture on a low temperature for 3 hours and monitor it to make sure it does not exceed 60C. Stir occasionally. High temperature can evaporate the alcohol content and destroy cannabinoids. Use a cooking thermometer if needed.
  • Use a cheesecloth, fine strainer, or coffee filter to remove the cannabis plant matter from the tequila once it is finished infusing. Let the weed infused tequila cool down before storing if you used the heated fast infusion method. Your weed tequila is now ready! Enjoy.
