Yo, Sid here. Just whipped up a batch of infused honey and honestly, it’s a game-changer for morning tea or just drizzled over some hot toast.
Since honey is mostly water/sugar, and THC is fat-soluble (not water-soluble), you need a carrier fat to bind everything together. I use a little coconut oil here to make sure it actually extracts and bonds properly.
Ingredients:
* 7 to 10 grams of your favorite flower (coarsely ground)
* 1 cup of organic coconut oil
* 1 cup of raw local honey
Steps:
1. Decarb: Don't skip this. Spread your ground flower on a lined baking sheet and bake at 240°F (115°C) for 30–40 minutes. This converts the non-psychoactive THCA into active THC.
2. Infuse the fat: Put your coconut oil and the decarbed flower in a double boiler. Simmer on low (160–200°F / 70–95°C) for 2 to 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Strain it through a cheesecloth.
3. Blend: Warm your honey slightly, then whisk in your infused coconut oil until it's completely smooth and emulsified. Pour into a jar.
Quick heads up on dosing: start low and go slow. Aim for about 5–10mg of THC for a single serving if you're new to this. Keep in mind that edibles take 30–90 minutes (sometimes even longer) to kick in because they have to process through your liver. Do not double down too quickly—that’s the easiest way to have a bad time. Label your jar clearly and keep it far away from kids and pets! Enjoy. — Internet of Pot
