Hot summer days are de-energizing and lack excitement. There are fewer chances to step out with your wet hair, beach shorts, and sunshades to get your summer kick in the post-pandemic blues. However, classic cannabis treats and weed drinks are there to sail you through warm weather.

Cannabis treats to satisfy cravings

A cannabis treat on a hot summer day is relaxing to beat the heat and satisfy specific cravings. While ready-made cannabis edibles like cookies and gummies are increasingly popular and readily available, cooking weed edibles is a joyful and rewarding process. Browsing the internet for a weed is basic, whereas buying a weed-infused ice lolly is more interesting. So, if you are feeling the heat pangs, here are some CBD-infused treats and beverages to help you chill out in the hot summer months.

1. Weed Lemonade:

A refreshing lemon drink is most satisfying to quench summer thirst. Drinking a zesty pitcher of medicated lemonade is better, though. The preparation is easy and needs a few minutes to enjoy your first sip. Pair your drink with a weed joint from Just Cannabis for an enhanced experience.   

Ingredients:

1 and 3/4 cup white sugar

8 cups water

1 and 1/2 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)

THC syrup (preferably vegan-friendly)

How to make:    

In a saucepan, combine all the sugar and one cup of water and bring it to a boil. Make sure the sugar completely dissolves and leaves no residue. 

Take off the mixture from the flame and let it cool down.

Slowly add the THC syrup to the dissolved sugar and keep stirring the contents to prevent any lumps.

Now refrigerate the mixture until chilled.

Transfer the chilled sugar water and lemon juice to a pitcher.

Add remaining water to the pitcher and mix it up.

You may add a few lemon wedges and ice cubes for a garnish-and-serve.  

2. Cannabis-Infused Fruit Salad:

There is nothing like eating assorted fresh fruits to combat the summer heat. Get summer fruits of your choice to make a healthy Cannabis salad. It is a no-fuss, simple-to-make recipe with no greasy oils and warm spices.

Ingredients:

Kiwis, strawberries, blueberries, bananas (chopped)

THC syrup

Dried fruits (optional)

How to make:    

Arrange the fruits of your choice in a bowl.

Pour a teaspoon of THC syrup over the fruits and mix it well for uniform fruits’ coating.

Add other toppings like melted chocolate or chopped nuts (cashews, almonds, peanuts) and shaved coconut on top.

Refrigerate for a few minutes, or eat it right away.

3. Cannabis-Enriched Greek Yogurt:

Yogurt is a gut-friendly, low-carb refreshing snack. It adds considerable health value to a meal. Add cut fruit slices or whole fruits and a few drops of THC syrup to take your yogurt to an extra dimension.

Ingredients:

Greek yogurt

Berries of your choice (example, strawberries or raspberries)
