-
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients
-
2 cups Fresh strawberries, quartered

Pro-Tips for Success
-
The Stoner Strategies Secret: Use a high-quality, local honey if possible. The floral notes of raw honey complement the herbaceous profile of the basil and the earthy tones of the cannabis honey better than mass-produced versions.
-
Storage: Keep your strawberries covered in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This mixture stays fresh for up to 3 days, making it an excellent edibles recipe to prepare ahead of time for a brunch or dinner party.
-
Versatility: If you want to add an extra layer of texture, sprinkle a few toasted pine nuts or slivered almonds over the top right before serving.
