Mixing Drinks & Cooking with CBD Tinctures

The benefits of CBD are numerous and have the potential to round out your life and assist in your wellness journey. Luckily, those benefits aren’t hard to come by. There are many different methods you can incorporate CBD into your lifestyle, and one of the easiest ways is through food and drink. It’s simple, it’s fast, and it can be really fun. 

How you do this is by adding a few drops of a Full Spectrum CBD Tincture into… well, anything, really, but some ideas are better tasting than others! This article is here to give you a leg-up on the deliciousness. 

ICHOR’s CBD tincture is mint flavored, it works best with desserts. Read on and take notes for the best mint chocolate brownies you’ve ever tasted.

MINT CHOCOLATE BROWNIE CBD TINCTURE RECIPE

Here’s what you’ll need:

• 1 ¼ cup of all-purpose flour

• 1 tsp kosher salt

• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

• 1 ½ cups chocolate chips

• 1 cup (2 sticks) butter – cut into 1 inch pieces

• 1 ½ cup granulated sugar

• ½ cup packed brown sugar

• 5 large eggs – at room temperature

• 1 ½ tsp of pure vanilla extract

• 6-7 drops of CBD oil

First, preheat your oven to 350, then butter a 9×13 inch baking pan and line it with parchment paper. 

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and cocoa powder. 

Set a large, heat-proof bowl over a saucepan of barely-simmering water to create a double-boiler. To that, add butter, chocolate chips, and your Full Spectrum CBD Tincture. Stir occasionally until the chocolate and butter are melted and smooth, then remove the bowl from heat. 

After that, whisk in sugars and stir until combined. 

Add eggs one at a time and stir well between each addition. Then, stir in vanilla. 

Add flour mixture to chocolate mixture. Fold in dry ingredients with a rubber spatula until everything is combined. 

Pour batter into the pan you prepared, and bake for 30 minutes – until a toothpick can be inserted into the center of the brownie and come out with only a few moist crumbs. Let them cool completely in the pan before cutting or removing. Then, enjoy!

MOJITO MOCKTAIL CBD TINCTURE RECIPE

A drop of CBD oil can be just as tasty (and just as effective) in a drink. Here’s a minty recipe for a mocktail that you’ll want to try as soon as possible.

What you’ll need:

• A few mint leaves
• 1 wedge of lime
• A sprinkling of sugar
• Ice
• 1 drop of CBD oil

This one is simple. First, start off with a glass that’s short and sturdy. Mix around the mint leaves and the lime at the bottom of the glass to combine the flavors. After that, add sugar and more lime and mash it up. Fill the glass with ice and top it up with club soda or seltzer water, then add your CBD oil. Enjoy!
