What Is Cannabis?

Cannabis is a naturally occurring plant. It contains many different compounds, called cannabinoids, that work with the body's endocannabinoid system to bring about different effects. One of these compounds is THC.

THC is the compound that brings about the high cannabis is traditionally associated with. When making weed tea with the purpose of getting high, you'll want to make sure that your ingredients include THC.

Consumption Methods

Before you start making cannabis-infused beverages, you should be aware of all of the different consumption methods available.

Edibles and smokable products are some of the most popular when it comes to cannabis, but there are also tinctures and concentrates available. If you're looking for localized relief, you may even want to try a lotion that contains cannabis.

In today's world, there are so many different edibles to choose from! If you're not sure which edible option is the right one for you, grab some boiling water and get ready to try cannabis tea!

The Many Benefits of Cannabis

Cannabis has many different health benefits, and understanding the effects of cannabis is important before you use it for the first time. Understanding the traditional benefits that cannabis provides can be a helpful way of narrowing down your options and deciding if weed is the right addition to your health and wellness routine. 

Everyone experiences different benefits from cannabis, but there are a few common benefits that many people note. One of the biggest reasons why people use cannabis is for pain. Cannabis can be extremely helpful at reducing pain and helping with inflammation, which can not only help with symptoms but actually target the root cause of them.

Pain relief isn't the only option why you should consider cannabis! Many people report that it helps them feel more relaxed, while others take it to enhance creativity or help with sleep.

Exploring the many benefits of cannabis-infused tea is a great way to understand if this option could be right for you, so let's go over what you need to know in order to make weed tea at home.

Making Cannabis Tea

Let's dive into everything you need to know about making cannabis tea. This is a great option and one that's perfect for a cozy day at home, so take a look at the following instructions for making cannabis-infused tea.

For the purposes of this article, we'll be speaking about how to make cannabis tea from raw bud. With that being said, you can easily make cannabis tea by mixing a premade cannabis product into your cup.

Preparation

The first step required when making cannabis tea is figuring out the dosage that you want. One of the great things about making tea at home is you can control the dosage, so think about how much THC you want in a cup of your tea and then do the required math to figure out how much cannabis should go into a kettle of this tea.

If you're starting off with some unprocessed cannabis flower, then you'll need to start by decarboxylating it. Through the decarboxylation process, the chemicals in the cannabis are converted to THC, which is the psychoactive compound that will get you high.

If you don't decarboxylate your ground cannabis, then you'll most likely be missing out on many different positive effects and you may not have a great experience. Because of this, it's best to take the time to properly prepare your cannabis before transforming it into weed tea.

Making Cannabis Tea

Once your ground cannabis has gone through the decarboxylation process, it's time to make your tea!

Start by grabbing a tea bag (we recommend herbal tea!) and then boiling some water. While you're waiting for your water, gather some form of fat (such as butter or coconut oil).

Once your water is boiling, it's time to add your fat of choice. You'll want to wait until the fat has completely dissolved. At this point, you can add in your cannabis and turn down the heat so that the water is simmering. 

After about fifteen minutes, you can remove your pot from the heat and strain out the cannabis material. Ready for the last step in the weed tea preparation process? Add your tea bag and let it steep!

At this point, you'll have a cup of warm, delicious cannabis tea. Don't be afraid to play around and try out other options, such as adding milk or sugar to change the taste of the tea.

Consider Your Edible Options

For a quick and easy cup of calm, simply add a few drops of your go-to THC tincture to your morning tea or coffee. This is a great option if you want to enjoy the therapeutic effects of cannabis without much effort. You can also use a CBD tincture if you want to forego the “high” that comes with consuming THC.
