Cannabis Infused Honey
A step by step guide on how to make cannabis honey at home. Cannabis infused honey is great for infusing cocktails and other foods & drinks.
Ingredients
- 7 grams cannabis (use more or less depending on desired potency)
- 250 ml honey
Instructions
- Decarboxylate the cannabis to activate the THC & CBD. Spread it evenly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and cover with foil. Place into oven preheated to 240°F (115°C) for 30-40 minutes. For a more in depth decarboxylation guide, click here.
- Combine the honey and ground decarboxylated cannabis in a saucepan or double boiler.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer on a low heat and let it infuse for at least 1 hour (up to 6 hours). Do not let it boil - high heat can damage the cannabinoids.
- Once infused, take the cannabis honey off the heat and allow to cool down. When cool, pour the mixture through a funnel lined with cheesecloth to strain the cannabis material out of the infused honey.
- Store in a cool dark area like a cupboard or refrigerate. Best used within 1-2 months.
Notes
Instead of directly combining the honey and cannabis, you can make a cannabis "teabag" out of cheese cloth. Let that simmer in with the honey then simply remove it at the end. Saves you straining out the weed from the honey.
Use more or less cannabis in this recipe to achieve your desired potency.
Always start with a small amount when testing the potency of your edibles.
