What is cannabis tea?
Cannabis tea is made from the leaves, flowers or stems of the cannabis plant. The brewing process releases valuable cannabinoids such as THC and CBD. In contrast to other forms of consumption, the tea is particularly gentle and is ideal for people who prefer a mild and long-lasting effect.
Depending on how it is prepared, the tea can have different effects. While a pure CBD tea has a relaxing effect and reduces stress, a tea containing THC provides a more intensive effect.
Whether you want to enjoy your tea for pain relief, to support your sleep or simply to relax, the possibilities are endless.

Preparation of cannabis tea
Preparing cannabis tea is very simple. All you need is dried cannabis flowers or leaves, hot water and a fat such as milk or coconut oil, as cannabinoids are fat-soluble. Crush the flowers or leaves and add them to hot water together with the fat.
Allow the tea to infuse for about 13 minutes to extract the active ingredients optimally.
Alternatively, you can also use ready-made tea blends that have been specially developed for making cannabis tea. These blends often contain additional herbs such as chamomile or mint, which round off the taste and offer additional health benefits.
The effect of cannabis tea usually sets in after 30 to 90 minutes and can last up to eight hours. As the cannabinoids are absorbed via the digestive tract, the tea has a slow but lasting effect. These properties make it ideal for the long-term relief of complaints such as chronic pain, sleep disorders or other health problems.
It is important to find the right dosage to achieve the desired effect. Start with a low dose and increase it slowly if necessary.
Your doctor or pharmacist can help you determine the ideal dosage for your individual needs.
