CBD Infused Drinks - The Best CBD Infused Drink Recipes
What are CBD Infused Drinks?
CBD drinks are drinks that have been infused with cannabidol (CBD). People consume CBD for a variety of reasons, and the benefits are wide-ranging. These drinks are commonly based off of traditional alcoholic drinks. But, there are many other drinks you can make with CBD like Coffees, Smoothies, and Spritzers!
Drinking CBD is also an easy way to feel the benefits of CBD in a quick, delicious way. By using water-soluble CBD, the absorption and onset happens much quicker than other methods like taking gummies. It's also a fun way to incorporate your daily CBD regimen into your routine!
Why Type of CBD is Best in Drinks?
When making any kind of CBD-infused drink, you want to try to stick with a water-soluble CBD. If you use CBD oil, there is a high probability of the CBD oil separating from the rest of the drink since water and oil do not mix. We offer 2 forms of water-soluble CBD. Our Root Therapeutics Water-Soluble CBD, and our THC-Free CBD Isolate are both great options for any of these recipes. But, if you're looking for a little more fun, we also carry water-soluble Delta 9 syrups that are delicious!
How Much CBD Should I Add?
One thing that is important to always remember that dosage is always dependent on the user. Everyone has a different tolerance and "sweet spot" that works for them. So, we recommend finding what works best for you in terms of dosage. If you are unsure where to start, we recommend starting at 3-5 drops and increasing/decreasing your dosage each time to find your "sweet spot".
