How To Make Cannabis-Infused Honey

Making cannabis-infused honey is a great way to enjoy the benefits of marijuana with various meals and snacks. Honey is a natural sweetener and has many health benefits of its own. When you combine the two, you get a delicious and healthy treat that will help you relax and unwind. In this post, we will show you how to make your own cannabis-infused honey at home!

Cannabis-Infused Honey Recipe

CBD or THC honey is created by gently heating cannabis with honey. It’s anti-inflammatory, integrating the anti-inflammatory properties with both high-CBD hemp plus honey. It’s very simple to create and has a distinct sweet flavour with herbal notes. Preparing cannabis-infused honey is less difficult than you would imagine. Let’s get started on our recipe.

Canna-Honey Ingredients:

• • 1 cup honey 
  • 1 gram decarboxylated cannabis (or more/less depending on desired potency) 
  • Crockpot 
  • Cheesecloth 
  • Jar for storage

Canna-Honey Directions:

1. 1. Add honey and cannabis to crockpot.
   2. Stir well and set temperature to low heat (around 200 degrees Fahrenheit).
   3. Cook mixture on low heat for 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally.
   4. Once finished cooking, use cheesecloth to strain mixture into a jar.
   5. Store in a cool, dark place and enjoy as needed!

Canna-Honey Tips:

Start with 1 gram of cannabis and increase/decrease as needed based on desired potency. If using fresh, un-decarboxylated cannabis, cook for 4-5 hours on low heat. Be sure to label your infused honey so you know how strong it is! Cannabinoids are fat-soluble, so adding a bit of coconut oil to the mixture can help increase the potency.

THC is the main psychoactive compound in marijuana. It is what gives users the feeling of being “high.” THC has been shown to have a variety of potential health benefits, including:

• • Reducing anxiety and depression
  • Relieving chronic pain
  • Reducing inflammation
  • Helping sleep quality
  • Increasing appetite
