So how about a Cannabis Margarita? That sounds like a nice cocktail, right? The Margarite is a classic cocktail that everyone around the world knows. But by adding marijuana you give this classic a unique and modern twist.
You increasingly see drinks such as cannabis cocktails as an alternative to drinks that contain alcohol. From mai tais, pina coladas, mojitos and you name them all. They can all be made from cannabis instead of alcohol.
Do you not really like cocktails? Then you have to admit that margaritas are yummie. And if you add marijuana to it, then you know for sure that you will experience a completely new sensation!
The classic margarita cocktail is made from a mix of tequila and refreshing lime juice. A perfect match with cannabis, right? Are you ready to mix this sensation yourself? Of course you are ready for that!
Below you will find a delicious recipe for a marijuana margarita. This recipe is not only delicious, but it is also very simple. It all starts with infusing the tequila with marijuana. Once you’ve done that, it’s time for step two, mixing the cocktail. Finally we have some styling tips for you! Because, like any cocktail, a margarita must look summery! So read on and get your cocktail shaker!
First: decarboxylate your cannabis
The substances in cannabis, such as THC, must first be shaken awake. If you consume raw cannabis, the substances are not active, right? Suppose you eat cannabis raw, it will not get you high. This is because there is no process of decarboxylation. Without this process, your cocktail will not trigger a high.
Fortunately, decarboxylating cannabis is very simple. It comes down to heating your plant material. Just as you do when smoking or vaping cannabis. Only now do you first heat the cannabis so that the substances become active. And once they are active, you add them to the cocktail. Still follow? No? That’s OK, just follow the steps below.
Heat the oven, at 150 ° C. Remove cannabis from your storage jar and divide it over an oven plate. Put it in the oven for half an hour. The cannabinoids are awake after half an hour, they are now active! If you add it to your drink now it will cause a blissful buzz. That’s all! Simple, right?
And now we are going to mix that wonderful cannabis margarita …
What do you need?
- Tequila
- A pot or pan with a lid
- 3 limes
- Honey
- Marijuana, top residues, cutting residues or ground buds
- Margarita glasses
- Blender
- Ice
- Little salt
Here we go…
Fill your pan or jar with cannabis. Fill up to half without fat. You can use all kinds of plant material, provided it is decarboxylated. Did you do that? Sweet. Now pour tequila on it. White tequila is recommended. Put the lid on the jar and shake well. If you use a pan, mix well with a spoon.
Your patience is now being tested. Place the pot in a quiet, cool and dark place and let it stand for 2 weeks. Two weeks? Yes, two weeks. It’s a long time, we know. But the waiting is rewarded, really, trust us. Shake or stir the contents of the jar well once in a while.
After those two weeks you remove the plant material with a sieve. You can use a coffee filter. Does your tequila have a nice golden color? Perfect! Then you know you did well. If you use white tequila then you can see whether the cannabis has infused properly. With brown tequila, that difference is harder to see. White tequila takes on the color of cannabis much better, which ultimately contributes even more to the experience.
Ready to mix your drink? Yes? Well, what are you waiting for?
- Take out your blender and fill it with ice cubes. Add 5 tablespoons of honey.
- Press 3 limes. Also pour the juice into the blender.
- Now add a quantity of cannabis tequila to your own taste. The more you add, the stronger the effect will be! So maybe you should be a little careful the first time! The more tequila (and cannabis) the more intense your margarita! Blend everything.
How can you serve your margarita?
Margaritas should be served in cold glasses. So if you really want to do it perfectly, put your cocktail glasses in advance in the fridge. And then the edge of salt. That is part of it! Some people prefer not to have it, but it is the margarita way to go. First moisten the edge a bit with water and dip the glass in the salt (on a plate).
Finishing touch
Now cut a lime into slices. And slice them in up to the middle. Slide a slice of lime over the edge of each glass. Nice and tropical, right? If you really want to finish it to the last detail, grate some zest of a lemon and sprinkle it on top. Beautiful as a decoration!
Hopefully you’ve got inspired by these summer activities. And don’t forget to try one of those cannabis strains we’ve mentioned at the top of this article. Enjoy the rest of this summer!
