DIY Cannabis Infused Edibles
Firstly, let’s take a step into the kitchen. Yes, that’s right! You can whip up delicious edibles in the comfort of your own home with our potent cannabis products. Start by making a cannabis-infused butter or oil, which can substitute regular butter or oil in most recipes. When infusing, it’s essential to keep the temperature just right, as overheating or undercooking can impact the THC activation in your edibles.
Utilize those culinary skills to develop a batch of brownies, cookies, or even savoury dishes like infused pasta or steak. Remember, the key to a successful DIY cannabis edible is to start slow and low, increasing the amount as you become more comfortable with the dosing.
DIY Skin Products with Cannabis
Did you know that cannabis is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, making it excellent for skincare? With a few ingredients and an ounce of creativity, you can make your own cannabis-infused lotions, balms, or oils. Utilize our cannabis oils – mix them with carrier oils like coconut or almond oil to create moisturizing body oils or hand creams.
Consider blending cannabis oil with essential oils for customized scents. Choices like lavender or chamomile can prove relaxing, thereby bolstering the stress-reducing properties of cannabis. So, why wait? Start mixing your personalized skincare line today.
Create your Own Cannabis Tinctures
Last, but definitely not least, why not try your hand at making your own cannabis tinctures? Tinctures are a great way to consume cannabis, especially for those who prefer a smoke-free option. To create tinctures, soak cannabis flowers in high-proof alcohol, allowing the cannabinoids to infuse into the liquid.
This process can take a few weeks, but the wait is worth it! The end product is a potent concoction that can be added to food or drinks or taken sublingually. Remember, homemade tinctures should be stored in a dark place to retain their potency.
With Altius Dispensary, the possibilities for DIY cannabis projects are truly limitless. Take your creativity to the next level by checking out a wide range of our top-quality cannabis products. Whether you’re from Lake Villa, Mundelein or beyond, we’re here to help you explore and elevate your cannabis experience.
