What Can I Expect When Consuming Cannabis Drinks?
When you consume Cannabis in the form of drinks, you’ll most likely feel the alcohol first, then an hour or more later, you’ll feel the effects of Cannabis.
Just be cautious for those who are beginners or novices, because using alcohol and cannabis together magnifies the effects. BIG time.
If you’re experienced with getting crossfaded (being high and drunk at the same time) then this should be a breeze of a buzz!
#1. Cannabis Egg Nog
I used to absolutely hate egg nog. I couldn’t even be near it – but over the years, I’ve played and adjusted ingredients, but with Cannabis? OMG – so yum.
Did you know? Medieval monks in Britain were known to drink “posset”, which was a warm ale punch with eggs and figs.
Over the years, this beverage has merged into the traditional and common-day egg nog. Who knew?!
Here’s the recipe, enjoy!
Cost: 20-25
-
Electric Mixer
-
Bowls
-
Whisk
- 5 Egg yolks
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 4 tbsp Cannabis Butter melted
- 1 1/2 cups Heavy Cream
- 1 1/2 tbsp Vanilla
- 5 Egg whites
- 2 tbsp Sugar
- 1 pinch Freshly grated nutmeg per cup
- 1 pinch Cinnamon per cup
- 1 ounce Rum per cup Spiced is nice, regular is good too.
-
With your electric mixer, beat the yolks. While the mixer is running, add the sugar in a stream. When the sugar has dissolved add the milk, cream, Cannabutter and vanilla. Mix until well blended.
-
In a separate mixing bowl whip the egg whites until they reach soft peaks. Add the remaining sugar and beat until stiff.

Then, hisk the egg whites in, and chill.

Add your 1 ounce of rum per glass, and fresh nutmeg on top!
