Easy Cannabis Tincture Recipe

When making cannabis tincture, whether THC or CBD, with alcohol it is best to go with the strongest alcohol you can get your hands on. Turning your cannabis flower into cannabis tincture is super easy and requires little effort. Some people argue that it is ready in just a few minutes, however, for maximum potency it is best to allow it to sit for at least a few days. Store in a cool, dark place to maintain optimal potency. Some people like to burn the alcohol off in a crockpot however I use cannabis tinctures strictly for cooking so the alcohol burns off, anyway. Be cautious if you choose to burn the alcohol off from the cannabis tincture as it is likely to cause a fire.
