Cannabis Infused Milk
What you will need;
🍵 Milk (preferably with a higher fat content, like whole milk) **Note: You can also use heavy cream, or coconut milk as an alternative to milk. Plant based options will work too!**
🍵 ½ a gram - 1 gram of your preferred cannabis (per quart of milk) **Note: ensure it has been decarboxylated first**
🍵 1 Medium Saucepan
🍵 An airtight liquid storage container (mason jar)
🍵 Cheesecloth
🍵 And of course, a stovetop!
Instructions:
1. Finely grind your decarbed cannabis into a powder. (Finer the grind, better infusion)
2. With your milk in a saucepan on low heat, add your ground cannabis
3. Stir your mixture frequently to avoid scorching. Let milk simmer for between 30 minutes to 1 hour (the longer it simmers, the stronger it gets)
4. After 30 minutes, remove your mixture from the heat and let sit for 10-15 minutes
5. Get your cheesecloth ready by placing it over a large mason jar. Pour your milk into the mason jar, letting it be strained by the cheesecloth
6. Make sure to properly label your jar to indicate that it is a cannabis product. Keep away from children.
*You can also freeze the mixture into ice cube forms for later use!*
