Tips for Infusing Cannabis into Cocktails
Before we dive into mixing, here are some savvy tips to elevate your cannabis-infused cocktails:
Choose Quality Ingredients: Grab those primo cannabis-infused products with natural flavors and organic ingredients to boost your sippin' game.
Experiment with Flavors: Mix 'n match different strains and flavors that vibe with your cocktail style. If you want to get scientific about it, you should research what terpenes are included in your cannabis product - so they can blend seamlessly with your cocktail vibe.
