TINCTURE INFUSION GUIDE:
For best results, use a properly prepared cannabis tincture (alcohol- or glycerin-based).
QUICK DECARBOXYLATION REMINDER (if making your own tincture):
* Preheat oven to 240°F (115°C).
* Break cannabis flower into small pieces and spread on parchment-lined baking sheet.
* Bake 40–45 minutes until lightly browned.
* Cool completely before infusing into high-proof alcohol or vegetable glycerin.
Potency Tip: Test your tincture strength in advance. A standard dropper (1 ml) from a 20mg/ml tincture = 20mg THC total for the recipe (10mg per glass).
INGREDIENTS:
* 20mg THC total cannabis tincture
* 4 oz fresh lime juice
* 2 oz agave nectar
* 2 oz hemp seed milk or hemp-infused water
* 3-4 fresh jalapeño slices
* 1/2 cup sparkling water
* Rim: Sea salt, chili powder, and hemp hearts
* Ice cubes
* Garnish: Lime wheels and an extra jalapeño slice
INSTRUCTIONS:
* Prepare the rim by mixing sea salt, chili powder, and hemp hearts on a small plate. Run a lime wedge around the rim of two rocks glasses and dip them into the mixture.
* In a cocktail shaker, muddle the jalapeño slices with the agave nectar to release the heat.
* Add the fresh lime juice, hemp milk, and the cannabis tincture (20mg total).
* Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for 15 seconds to chill the ingredients and emulsify the tincture.
* Fill the rimmed glasses with fresh ice.
* Strain the mixture evenly into the glasses.
* Top with a splash of sparkling water for a crisp finish.
* Garnish with a lime wheel and a jalapeño slice.
CHEF’S TIPS:
Hemp Depth: The hemp seed milk adds a subtle creaminess and nutty flavor that grounds the sharp lime.
Heat Level: For more heat, leave the jalapeño seeds in while muddling. For a milder version, remove them entirely.
Emulsification: Shaking with the agave and lime ensures the cannabis tincture is evenly distributed throughout the drink.
Glassware: Serve in chilled rocks glasses to keep the drink cold and the salt rim intact.
Vegan Friendly: This recipe is naturally vegan and gluten-free.
Serve immediately while ice-cold. Enjoy the Spicy Lime Margarita responsibly 🧂🌶️
