Cannabis Cocktails Anyone?

surprisinglives.net/cannabis-cocktails/

I have  definitely been spending too much time online, which in my case means hanging out with my boring old U.S.A marketing-type “friends.” Yesterday evening as I was perusing a well known Toronto publication I came across a big spread promoting 5 delicious Cannabis Cocktail Recipes!
What! Yeah, really. Have I missed something here? Well, it seems I haven’t missed a big change in the law or anything just a lot of unrest from the Canadian cannabis community. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also promised to legalize Pot so that has everyone in a haze of expectation. Pun intended.

Apparently, “nowadays in Toronto, you can find doctors, clinics and dispensaries in almost every neighborhood offering to hook you up.” –NOW 
So for those of you that are still wondering about how to make delicious cannabis cocktails here are a few recipes courtesy of Now.

THE CANNABIS COCKTAIL: ST GERMAIN’S ORCHARD

Pairs well with fall’s favourite fruit, fresh apples.
Directions:
For this recipe, you’ll need to “de-carb” ¼ ounce ground cannabis first. De-carbing activates the weed’s psychoactive ingredients.

  • Spread your cannabis on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet and bake at 115°C for 30 minutes.
  • Place the de-carbed weed in a Mason jar, add 2 cups gin (or your fave vodka or rum) and store in a cool place for 10 days, giving it a shake or stir every couple of days. Strain through cheesecloth or coffee filter. To make your drink
  • Pour 1 ounce St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur into a champagne flute.
  • Add 1-ounce gin-infused cannabis and 3 ounces apple juice.
  • Top with Perrier or club soda and garnish with
  • an apple slice.

THE CANNABIS COCKTAIL: THE TIFF TRIP HOME

Become light on your feet with this spicy cocktail.

Bring 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar to a boil in a saucepan, add your de-carbed cannabis, 4 whole cloves and 4 sprigs fresh rosemary and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain syrup through cheesecloth.
To make your drink

  • Pour 2 ounces gin into a goblet.
  • Add 1-ounce cannabis-infused rosemary and clove simple syrup.
  • Top off with ½ ounce Perrier or club soda plus a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
  • Garnish with fresh rosemary and lemon.
