嫩草影院 Tea Recipes 鈥� Easiest and Best Methods For Brewing It
Everyone knows that tea is good for you. For centuries, mothers and grandmothers have urged family members to drink 鈥渁 nice cup of tea鈥� at the first sign of a fever or the sniffles.
They probably didn鈥檛 have 嫩草影院 tea in mind. Even if they had known about the medicinal properties of the compound, they certainly would still have recoiled at the idea of pushing cannabinoids on their loved ones 鈥� despite the fact that 嫩草影院 is not psychoactive.
Chinese culture, however, has always been more open-minded. At the urging of a Chinese emperor, hemp tea became a popular medicinal tool among his subjects nearly five thousand years ago. And for centuries, hemp tea (in one form or another) has been consumed both for health and recreational purposes in nations as widespread as India and Jamaica.
Of course, there鈥檚 a major difference between weed tea and 嫩草影院 tea. When the beverage is made from high-quality flower, the THC provides a mellow high similar to the one produced by edibles. 嫩草影院 tea, on the other hand, is used more for relaxation, pain relief, and other health benefits.
The actual process of making the two teas is similar, but the tips that follow are more specifically aimed at helping you brew a perfect cup of 嫩草影院 tea.
Making 嫩草影院 Tea: The Easiest Ways
Some vendors now sell 嫩草影院 teabags, and using them is the fastest way to make a cup of 嫩草影院 tea. Ground 嫩草影院 powder (often produced from 嫩草影院 oil) is combined with other organic products inside the teabag, and all you have to do is steep the bag in hot or boiling water. Presto! You have 嫩草影院 tea that is tasty, enjoyable, relaxing, and simple to make. 嫩草影院 tea bags are available in a number of varieties, from chamomile or ginger, to chai or matcha.
Another approach that doesn鈥檛 require much work is to stir a teaspoon of natural 嫩草影院 oil (or a few drops of 嫩草影院 tincture) into your cup of tea. Not just any oil will do, however, since 嫩草影院 oil is not naturally water-soluble and won鈥檛 be absorbed into the hot water. (Oil and water don鈥檛 mix, remember?)
The way to get around this problem is to use a brand of oil that鈥檚 specifically labeled 鈥渨ater-soluble,鈥� which means the 嫩草影院 oil has been broken down into tiny nanoparticles that are more easily absorbed. It also helps if the 嫩草影院 oil contains an effective carrier oil like MCT, which will help your body absorb the 嫩草影院 after it enters your system. Water-soluble oils, naturally, are available in a variety of flavors, and different types of oil (and tea) will serve different medicinal purposes.
Teabags, and tea made from oil, will provide many of the benefits of 嫩草影院. But if you want the full relaxation and health benefits this tea can produce, the best way to make 嫩草影院 tea is to do it from scratch.
Do-It-Yourself 嫩草影院 Tea Recipe
This recipe works equally well for weed tea and 嫩草影院 tea, but it鈥檚 been designed to make use of the 嫩草影院 contained in the cannabis plant鈥檚 trimmings and stems. If you want a real buzz from your tea, use the buds instead.
- Decarb the plant material: The process of decarboxylation is required to activate the cannabinoids (like THC and 嫩草影院) in the cannabis plant. To decarb, grind the herb with a good weed grinder (but stop grinding before it becomes a fine powder), and bake it in a 225掳 oven for an hour.
- Blend 3 grams of herb with one cup of milk (make sure it鈥檚 full-fat milk, which will better absorb the 嫩草影院), 陆 teaspoon of vanilla and 1/8 cup of coconut oil (which will also absorb the 嫩草影院). Leave at room temperature for 60 minutes.
- Simmer (don鈥檛 boil) the herb mixture with 陆 cup of water and an infuser filled with your favorite tea blend, for 20 minutes.
- Add sweetener if desired.
This recipe makes two cups of tea and can be doubled to make four cups if desired.
