Cannabis-infused Lavender Lemonade Pops

August 20, 2021

It’s been incredibly hot here in Colorado Springs. And hot, sweaty, summer days call for icy, refreshing, popsicles.  When I was a kid, that’s all I wanted in the summer during the day. One thousand popsicles please, mom, thank you.

Now that I’m older, I still love a frosty popsicle on a hot day, but my palette has evolved and requires something a little more flavorful and well rounded than those sugar water pops I inhaled as a kid. And if it could have a bit of a cannabis infusion, I wouldn’t complain.
I love making infused popsicles. I find that the slower consumption through the mouth works better for me when medicating. I get the best effect. 

For this recipe, I used a quick tincture. I just quickly decarbed my flower for 15 minutes in an oven that was preheated to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Then I added 4 grams of decarbed flower to 4 ounces of Everclear in a mason jar, and shook the jar for 10 minutes. 

Ingredients:

• 4 Lemons, juiced (equivalent to 1/2 cup juice)
• 1 3/4 cup Filtered Water
• 1/3 cup Sugar
• 1 tbsp Lavender Flowers
• Popsicle Molds
• Tincture, as much as needed for your dose.

Recipe: 

1. In a medium saucepan, add filter water, sugar, and lavender flowers, and bring to a simmer. Just enough to melt down the sugar and fully incorporate it into the water. Remove from heat and let the flowers steep. Longer is better but at least 1 hour. 
2. Strain out the lavender flowers from the syrup into a large glass measuring cup. 
3. Add the fresh lemon juice, tincture to the lavender simple syrup, and blend well.
4. Divide the lemonade mixture evenly between the molds.
5. Freeze for 4 + hours, or overnight. 
6. Enjoy once frozen.
