Uncover the perfect summer indulgence: CBD Ice Cream Sensations! This step-by-step guide reveals the secrets to crafting creamy delights with the soothing benefits of CBD. From decarboxylation to freezing, embark on a journey to make your own refreshing CBD ice cream at home.
Here is a step-by-step recipe for making CBD-infused ice cream:
- Decarboxylate the CBD: Place the desired amount of CBD flower or concentrate in a sealed mason jar and heat it in a water bath at 185°F (85°C) for 3 hours. This process activates the CBD.
- Make the cannabis-infused cream: In a saucepan, combine the decarboxylated CBD and heavy cream. Gently heat the mixture, stirring frequently, until the CBD is fully incorporated. Use cheesecloth to strain the mixture and get rid of any plant material.
- Prepare the ice cream base: In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. If you want to make chocolate ice cream, also add cocoa powder.
- Whip the CBD-infused cream: In a separate chilled bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the CBD-infused cream until stiff peaks form.
- Combine the mixtures: Gently fold about half of the whipped CBD cream into the sweetened condensed milk mixture. Then fold the combined mixture back into the remaining whipped cream until well blended.
- Freeze the ice cream: Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and freeze for about 3 hours, or until firm.
- Serve and enjoy: Scoop the CBD-infused ice cream into bowls or cones and add any desired toppings, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or fresh fruit.
Remember to start with a small amount of CBD and adjust the dosage to your preference. Enjoy your refreshing and relaxing CBD-infused ice cream!
