We start by choosing the right ingredients for your CBD herbal tea
CBD flowers are the base of your herbal tea. Opt for strains rich in cannabidiol, including Harlequin and ACDC, known for their calming and slightly sedative effects.
Make sure that the flowers are well dried and that they come from a quality hemp crop, with less than 0.3% THC, which is the case for the entire 321CBD range.
You can add some complementary herbs that promote sleep and relaxation such as lemon balm, lavender or chamomile. They will reinforce the soothing effect of the herbal tea.
Finally, opt for filtered water, or use bottled water with low mineral content to preserve the purity and subtle taste of the ingredients in your CBD herbal tea, especially if you live in an area that experiences low mineral content. hard and limestone.
We prepare the ingredients for the CBD herbal tea
Measure approximately one gram of CBD flowers per cup. Use a grinder or your hands to lightly crush the dried flowers, being careful not to turn them into a fine powder to optimize the extraction of the active compounds without losing any material.
Mix the crushed flowers with your chosen herbs. Use a ratio of approximately three quarters CBD flower to one quarter complementary herbs.
Infusion of CBD herbal tea
Bring the water to a temperature close to boiling, around 90 to 95 degrees Celsius. This is the best temperature to extract the cannabinoids and flavors from the herbs without burning the ingredients delicate.
Pour hot water directly onto the CBD and herb mixture placed in an infuser or directly into the cup. Let everything steep for 8 to 10 minutes for full diffusion of the relaxing properties and flavors. Meanwhile, cover the cup or teapot to seal in the heat and volatile aromas.
Filter and consume your CBD herbal tea
Remove the infuser containing the CBD flowers and herbs. If you brewed directly into the cup or teapot, pour the liquid through a fine strainer to filter out any plant residue.
To extract the maximum amount of active ingredients, gently press the herbs against the strainer with a spoon. Make sure the filtered liquid is clear and free of particles before tasting.
We advise you to consume your CBD herbal tea approximately two hours before bedtime, to give cannabidiol and other active ingredients time to enter the bloodstream.
