Cannabis Drink Recipes to Try in 2023

National Mocktail Week occurs the second week in January and pays homage to those who abstain from alcohol. A mocktail is similar to a cocktail, minus the alcohol. Perhaps one of the most well-known mocktails is a Shirley Temple.

In honor of National Mocktail Week, we’d like to share some easy-to-follow recipes for some of our favorite mocktails. And, if you are so inclined, you can easily customize them to include your favorite ingredients – like cannabis.  

Armed with your favorite cannabis tincture, you are only a few simple steps away from enjoying a refreshing and relaxing concoction. As far as how much of the tincture you should include – it is recommended beginners stick to ¼ of a dropper or less per serving. A standard dropper will have 1 mL, so about 0.25 mL.

Those more experienced with tinctures may use up to ½ of a dropper per serving (0.50 mL).

All recipes have been modified to create 1 serving!
