The popularity of marijuana edibles
Marijuana edibles have grown in popularity in recent years. Although legal cannabis dispensaries offer a variety of options, from THC-infused candy to cannabis chocolates to marijuana lemonade, one of the most popular foods to pair with cannabis is ice cream. In this article, we’ll show you how to make marijuana ice cream at home without the need for expensive or specialized equipment.
Benefits of marijuana edibles
Marijuana edibles offer a different experience than smoking cannabis. Although the effect may take about an hour to kick in, edibles provide a powerful, long-lasting trip. In addition, they are a discreet option to consume cannabis without generating strong odors. They can also be an alternative for those looking to reduce their cigarette consumption. In some places where cannabis is legal, the sale of edibles may be restricted, so making them at home may be the best option.
Preparation of cannabis whipped cream
To make marijuana ice cream, it is advisable to use cannabis-infused cream instead of cannabutter or cannabis oil. This is because both THC and CBD are fat-soluble. Cannabis whipped cream can be made by decarboxylating cannabis and then mixing it into the cream. There are different methods to infuse the cream, such as boiling it with cannabis or using a double boiler. Once the cream is infused, it can be used to make marijuana ice cream.
Marijuana ice cream recipe
A simple recipe to make marijuana ice cream is as follows:
Ingredients:
– Condensed milk
– Vanilla
– Salt
– Cannabis whipped cream
Instructions:
– In a medium bowl, mix the condensed milk, vanilla and salt. If you want to make chocolate ice cream, also add cocoa powder.
– In another refrigerated bowl, beat the cannabis whipped cream until firm peaks form.
– Add about half of the cannabis whipped cream to the condensed milk mixture and mix well. Then, add this mixture back to the whipped cream and mix until well combined.
– Put the mixture in an airtight container and freeze it for at least 3 hours.
Additional Tips
– You can personalize your marijuana ice cream by adding additional ingredients and flavors, such as chocolate pieces or mint leaves.
– It is important to consider the potency of the cannabis whipped cream, as this will affect the potency of the ice cream. If you use a larger amount of cannabis, the ice cream will be stronger.
– Remember to start with a small portion of ice cream and wait to evaluate its effect before consuming more.
