It’s time for tea—high tea, that is.
As cannabis increasingly wafts into the mainstream, we’re finding THC and CBD infusing many of our favourite snacks and drinks. It was only a matter of time before tea caught the buzz. Ideal for low-key days and cozy evenings on the couch or in the tub, here are a few of our favourite local brews (and infusion ideas) to elevate tea time.
Hint: Wait at least 15 minutes for the teas to take effect. For added sweetness and a bit more buzz, try spooning in a teaspoon Honey Bee’s cannabis-infused honey.
Skyline Boulevard
Fancy a cannabis-infused rooibos? Or, perhaps, a peppermint hash tea for a fresh start to the day? Oakland-based Skyline Boulevard has plenty of options that will breathe life into your everyday tea collection.
Each tea blend is made with lab-tested and Bay Area–grown hybrid kief (the resin glands of the cannabis plant that contain the terpenes and cannabinoids that make each strain so unique). Each single-use tea bag has up to 30 milligrams of THC, but kief being fat-soluble, you can tweak the potency of your cup by adding fat-free milk for a lower dose or full-fat milk or cream for a heartier cup. Steep each bag as you normally would: three minutes for an eight-ounce cup of green or oolong tea; one to two minutes for chamomile, passion fruit, and other herbal blends.
