Important Edible Safety Note
Cannabis drinks can take longer to feel than inhaled cannabis and may last longer. Potency depends on the CBD tincture, the amount used, how evenly it is mixed, and the serving size. Start with a low serving, wait before taking more, label infused foods clearly, and store them securely away from children, pets, and anyone who could mistake them for non-infused food. This recipe is for adults in places where cannabis use is legal; follow your local laws.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sparkling water
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 slices cucumber
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 dropper CBD tincture
Equipment
- Glass and stirrer
Before You Start
Measure the CBD tincture into the cucumber-lemon glass, stir with ice, and serve while the garnish stays crisp.
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Stir all ingredients in a glass over ice for 20–30 seconds, until cold and evenly mixed.
- Garnish with cucumber or lemon and serve cold.
- Portion into 1 drink.
Dosing and Portioning Notes
Potency depends on the strength of your CBD tincture, the amount used, how evenly it is mixed, and the final serving size. If the CBD tincture is not labeled with usable potency information, dosing cannot be calculated from the recipe alone. Use the listed 1 drink to plan measured portions, and calculate dose from the labeled infusion strength before eating.
Tips for Best Results
- Stir the CBD tincture with lemon juice and honey before topping with sparkling water so it disperses evenly.
- Use thin cucumber slices for more aroma without crowding the glass.
- Serve immediately over fresh ice while the tonic is cold and lively.
Storage and Serving
Serve immediately. For safety, make only what you plan to serve and do not store infused leftovers.
Keep infused food counted, clearly labeled, and secured until serving. Do not leave infused food on counters, tables, or anywhere children, pets, or guests could reach it by accident. Discard anything that was left out, unlabeled, unattended, or cannot be clearly identified.
