Dosage Information
This recipe utilizes 1 teaspoon of cannabis-infused honey. Dosage depends on the potency of your specific infusion. For a standard 10mg experience, ensure your honey is infused at a ratio that delivers this amount per teaspoon.
Ingredients List
1 teaspoon cannabis-infused honey
2 teaspoons loose-leaf Earl Grey tea or 1 high-quality tea sachet
8 ounces filtered water
4 ounces organic whole milk or oat milk
1/2 teaspoon pure Madagascar vanilla bean paste
1/8 teaspoon dried culinary lavender (optional)
A pinch of sea salt
Decarboxylation Instructions
Preheat a laboratory-grade oven or sous-vide bath to 240°F. Place broken cannabis flower in a sealed mason jar. Heat for 40 to 60 minutes to convert THCA to THC. Ensure the flower is cooled completely before proceeding with honey infusion.
Infusion Instructions
Combine decarboxylated cannabis and local raw honey in a double boiler. Maintain a constant temperature of 160°F for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure even distribution. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth while warm. Store in a glass jar in a cool, dark environment.
Preparation Instructions
Bring filtered water to exactly 208°F. Place the Earl Grey tea and optional lavender in a warmed ceramic mug or steeping vessel. Pour the hot water over the tea and steep for exactly 5 minutes to extract full tannins without bitterness.
While the tea steeps, combine the milk and vanilla bean paste in a small saucepan. Heat over medium-low, whisking constantly until the milk reaches 155°F and develops a micro-foam texture. Do not allow the milk to boil.
Remove the tea sachet or strain the loose leaves. Stir the cannabis-infused honey and a pinch of sea salt into the hot tea until fully dissolved.
Slowly pour the frothed vanilla milk over the tea base. The foam should rest elegantly on the surface.
Chef Tips
For a professional presentation, use vanilla bean paste instead of extract to provide visible vanilla bean specks and a deeper flavor profile. Always warm your mug with hot water prior to preparation to maintain the ideal serving temperature of the latte.
