Introduction
Cannabis milk, or weed milk, is a dairy-free alternative to regular milk that is made with cannabutter or cannabis-infused oil. It can be used in any recipe that calls for milk, from cereal and coffee to baking and cooking. You can even make your own cannabis-infused dairy-free milk at home!
Cannabis milk has a variety of uses, both culinary and medicinal. For example, it can be used:
To make cannabutter or cannabis-infused oil
As a dairy-free alternative to regular milk
In any recipe that calls for milk, from cereal and coffee to baking and cooking
To make topical preparations like salves and ointments
As a base for tinctures and other extracts
Cannabis milk is also a good option for those who are unable to consume dairy products or are looking for a healthier alternative to regular milk. When made with whole milk, cannabis milk contains all the same nutrients as regular milk, including calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D. When made with skimmed milk, it contains fewer calories and fat.
One of the main benefits of cannabis milk is that it allows you to get all the benefits of cannabinoids without having to smoke or vaporize cannabis. This is especially beneficial for those who want to avoid the potential lung damage associated with smoking or vaporizing weed. Additionally, since weed absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract is less psychoactive than when inhaled, cannabis milk is a good way to consume cannabinoids for those who want the medicinal benefits without the high.
What You Will Need
-1 cup of whole milk
-1/8 ounce of cannabis flower or 1 gram of hash
-A stovetop or electric double boiler
-A clean cheesecloth
-A glass jar with a lid
Cannabis milk is a potent weed drink that can be used in all kinds of recipes, from coffee and tea to cereal and even oatmeal. Learning how to make cannabis milk is relatively simple, and all you need is some whole milk, cannabis, and a double boiler. The resulting drink will be potent, so be sure to start with small doses and work your way up as needed.
Step One: Decarboxylate Your Cannabis
The first step to making cannabis milk is to decarboxylate your cannabis. Decarboxylation is the process of heating your cannabis to activate the THC. This step is important because it allows your body to absorb the THC from the cannabis. You can decarboxylate your cannabis in a number of ways, but we prefer the oven method.
To decarboxylate using the oven method, preheat your oven to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, spread your ground cannabis evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes. Once the time is up, remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cannabis to cool.
Step Two: Combine Cannabis and Milk in a Saucepan
Once your cannabis is decarboxylated, it’s time to combine it with milk in a saucepan. We recommend using whole milk for this recipe, but you can also use other types of milk such as almond milk or soy milk. Add 1 cup of milk for every 1 gram of decarboxylated cannabis.
Step Three: Heat Milk and Cannabis Mixture on Stovetop
Now it’s time to heat up your milk and cannabis mixture on the stovetop. Place the saucepan over low heat and stir continuously until everything is combined. You don’t want to boil the mixture, so make sure you keep an eye on it and stirring frequently.
Step Four: Strain Milk Through a Cheesecloth or Coffee Filter
Once everything is combined, it’s time to strain your milk through a cheesecloth or coffee filter into a container. This step is important because it will remove any unwanted plant material from your milk.
Step Five: Store Your Cannabis Milk in an Airtight Container
Now that you’ve strained your cannabis milk, it’s time to store it in an airtight container in the fridge. It will last up to 5 days in the fridge. When you’re ready to use it, simply add it to your favorite recipes or enjoy it as is!
Step Two: Infuse the Cannabis Into the Milk
In order to make your cannabis milk, you will need to infuse the cannabis into the milk. This is typically done using a double boiler. If you do not have a double boiler, you can create one by placing a heat-safe bowl on top of a pot of simmering water.
Place the milk and cannabis in the upper part of the double boiler. Stir gently and occasionally, taking care not to let the mixture boil. Allow the mixture to simmer for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
After infusing the milk, strain it through a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth into a clean bowl or pitcher. Be sure to squeeze all of the liquid out of the cannabis before discarding it. Your cannabis milk is now ready to use in any recipe that calls for milk!
Step Three: Strain the Cannabis
Strain the cannabis using a cheesecloth or coffee filter into a large bowl. You can add more milk to the mixture if you want, but make sure to strain it again. You can now add the cannabis milk to your coffee, tea, or cereal, or use it in any recipe that calls for milk!
Step Four: Enjoy!
Now that your cannabis milk is all finished, it’s time to enjoy it! You can use it in any recipe that calls for milk, or you can just drink it straight up. Cannabis milk is a great way to get your daily dose of cannabinoids, and it’s also a delicious and healthy treat. Thanks for following along, and we hope you enjoy your homemade cannabis milk!
