Cook Time: 1–3 hours

Yield: 1 cup

Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
-
1 cup Raw, cloudy honey (The natural wax content helps bind the cannabinoids)
-
1/8 oz (3.5g) CBD flower, ground and decarboxylated
Kitchen Tools
-
Small saucepan
-
Rubber spatula or spoon
-
Fine-mesh strainer
-
Cheesecloth and rubber bands

Latex-free gloves (optional)
Step-by-Step Directions
-
Warm the Base: In your small saucepan, combine the honey and decarboxylated CBD flower over medium-low heat.
-
Infuse: Allow the mixture to maintain a bare simmer for at least one hour. Stir occasionally to ensure the cannabinoids bond properly with the honey. (You may extend this up to 3 hours for a deeper infusion.)
-
Prepare Filter: Secure a double-folded piece of cheesecloth over a large, clean bowl using rubber bands.
-
Strain: Carefully pour the warm CBD honey through the cheesecloth filter.
-
Extract: Once strained, remove the cheesecloth and squeeze it firmly to extract every last drop of your infused honey.
-
Pro-Tip: This can be a sticky process! If you are preparing this for others, use latex-free rubber gloves to keep things sanitary.
