Recipe 1: CBD-infused whipped coffee

One of the most popular ways to consume water soluble CBD products is by adding them to coffee. If you’re looking for a new coffee based drink to include in your repertoire, trying out this South Korean beverage is the perfect place to start. Traditionally known as ‘Dalgona Coffee’, named after a Korean sugar candy, this drink is commonly referred to in western culture as ‘whipped coffee’ after being popularised on TikTok and other social platforms in recent years. This recipe produces a strong, sweet, creamy iced or hot coffee beverage, making it the perfect CBD-infused pick-me-up. 

 

Ingredients 

Here’s what this recipe calls for:

• Two tablespoons of instant coffee
• Two tablespoons of sugar
• Two tablespoons of boiling water
• Approximately 400ml of milk or a milk substitute
• Ice (optional)
• Your desired dose of Entourage Aqua Water Soluble CBD

 

Instructions

Here’s how to make the perfect CBD-infused pick-me-up:

1. First, add the two tablespoons of instant coffee, two tablespoons of sugar, and two tablespoons of boiling water to a mixing bowl. 
2. Now, use a standard whisk or an electric mixer to whip the mixture until it’s thick and fluffy.
3. For the iced version, add the milk to a glass with ice, leaving enough room to include the whipped mixture on top. For the hot version, heat the milk to a desirable temperature and pour it into a mug, again allowing enough room for the coffee mixture.
4. Once your milk is ready, add your desired dose of Entourage Aqua Water Soluble CBD to it and stir.
5. Now you can spoon the whipped coffee mixture onto the milk.
6. Finally, mix all of the drink’s constituents together thoroughly.
7. Enjoy!

 

Additional tips

Here’s some extra tips to consider when making your whipped coffee:

• To add to the flavour profile of this beverage, try using vanilla or hazelnut milk in place of or in addition to regular milk. 
• Adding vanilla essence to the whipped coffee mixture also produces delicious results - but make sure to add it after the mixture is whipped and then stir it in. 
• Some people enjoy adding whipped cream on top once the rest of the drink is mixed together for some extra indulgence.

 

Recipe 2: CBD-infused raspberry margarita

A margarita is a classic and popular cocktail that is fairly simple to make. There are many variations of the classic margarita, including fruit infusions.

3. Now it’s time to shake the constituents together thoroughly until they’re mixed well.
4. The next step is to rim the margarita glass by wetting the rim with lime juice or water and rolling it in salt or sugar. This step is optional and down to personal preference as some people prefer not to have a rim on their glass.
5. Next, add the cocktail mix to your margarita glass through a strainer to keep the ice and raspberry seeds in the shaker.
6. To garnish the cocktail, add a thin slice of lime to the rim of the glass.
7. Finally, enjoy this delicious CBD infused cocktail!

 

Additional tips

Here are some additional tips to consider when making this cocktail:

• You can choose to add more than raspberries to this recipe if you’d like a more diverse fruit infusion.
• If you can’t decide between a salt or sugar rim, you could mix the two together, or have half the rim with salt and the other half with sugar.
• To add to the finished look of the cocktail, you can include raspberries in the garnish in addition to the lime slice.
