Mix Yourself a Cannabis Cocktail
Skip the booze, embrace the THC
THC cocktails are a great alternative if you’re avoiding alcohol or just looking to play around with the possibilities at cocktail hour. Austin-based Hometown Hero, maker of a whole host of cannabis-based products, shares a couple of recipes for THC cocktails that use their Delta-9 THC Agave Syrup. The potency’s up to you: 1 teaspoon = 5 mg THC, 1 tablespoon = 15 mg THC. Find more recipes online here.
