CBD drinks are lovely refreshing drinks with cannabidiol in them. And they are becoming more and more popular. These food supplements make taking CBD not only easier, but tastier than with oil or capsules, for instance. We love these 7 lovely recipes for drinking CBD.
1. CBD iced tea: refreshing and summery
CBD iced tea combines the classic taste of cold tea with a few drops of CBD. These drinks are perfect for warm days and often offer natural flavours such as lemon, peach or forest fruits. Many of our customers say they drink CBD iced tea mainly in the afternoon.
Making it yourself: First brew a strong tea (black, green or herbal) and let it cool completely. Then add the dose of CBD oil you want (start with 10 to 15 mg) and mix it in well. Add ice cubes, lemon juice and honey to taste if you like.
2. CBD sparkling water: subtle and elegant
For lovers of carbonated water, CBD sparkling water is an excellent choice. These light, refreshing drinks usually contain natural flavourings and a mild dose of CBD. They are ideal if you want to try a CBD drink without a strong taste.
The advantage of sparkling water is that it is quickly absorbed by the body.
Making it yourself: Simply use sparkling water from the bottle or make it yourself with a soda maker. Add your CBD oil drop by drop and stir gently. For extra flavour you can add a splash of natural fruit juice or a few drops of citrus.
3. CBD fruit drinks: sweet and tropical
CBD fruit drinks combine plenty of flavour with a dose of cannabidiol. From mango and pineapple to strawberry and watermelon, these drinks completely mask the natural taste of CBD and taste like ordinary fruit juice.
Many users choose CBD fruit drinks as a healthy replacement for ordinary soft drinks, especially because they often contain less sugar.
Making it yourself: Mix your favourite fruit juice (freshly squeezed or from the bottle) with CBD oil. Use a blender or shaker to mix everything well. For extra freshness you can add fresh fruit and let the drink infuse in the fridge. And would you like to go further? With a CBD fruit drink you have a good base for making your own CBD sweets too.
4. CBD coffee: for the coffee lover
CBD coffee combines the energetic kick of caffeine with CBD. That may sound contradictory, but many users experience it as a good balance.
We recommend trying CBD coffee in the morning to see how you respond to this combination. Some people like it, others prefer CBD without caffeine.
Making it yourself: Brew your coffee as usual and let it cool a little (CBD is absorbed better in liquids that are not boiling). Then stir your CBD oil into the coffee. Would you rather make a latte? Then add a splash of warm milk after mixing in the CBD.
5. CBD smoothies: healthy and nourishing
CBD smoothies combine cannabidiol with healthy ingredients such as fruit, vegetables and sometimes protein. These thick, nourishing drinks are perfect as a meal replacement or pre-workout drink.
The great advantage of CBD smoothies is that they often contain other healthy ingredients as well, such as antioxidants and vitamins.
Making it yourself: Throw your favourite smoothie ingredients into the blender (banana, berries, spinach, oats, yoghurt). Add your CBD oil and blend everything to a smooth consistency. The other ingredients completely mask the taste of CBD.
6. CBD lemonade: familiar taste with a twist
CBD lemonade brings the familiar taste of citrus with a modern twist. These drinks are usually lightly sweet and have a refreshing sour taste that masks the earthy taste of CBD well.
Perfect for a summer afternoon in the garden or when you fancy something refreshing after a workout.
Making it yourself: Squeeze fresh lemons and mix the juice with water and a little honey or stevia to taste. Add your CBD oil and stir well. For extra freshness you can add mint or basil.
7. CBD kombucha: probiotics and CBD in one
For real health enthusiasts, CBD kombucha is an interesting option. These fermented drinks combine probiotics with CBD.
Kombucha already has a unique taste of its own, so the addition of CBD usually goes unnoticed.
Making it yourself: Buy ordinary kombucha in the shop and add your CBD oil just before drinking. Mix gently so as not to disturb the natural carbonation too much. You can also use flavoured kombucha for an extra taste experience in your own unique CBD drink.
