Do you want to learn how to brew marijuana tea? Although marijuana is usually inhaled, it can also be ingested. Marijuana tea can be brewed for a potent beverage. Please note that unless you have been approved to use marijuana for medicinal purposes, consumption of marijuana in any form, even tea, is a criminal offense in almost all U.S. states.

Marijuana is an herb, and, as such, can be used to make a herbal tea. A tea made with marijuana and water will have only mild psychoactive effects, however, as the active ingredient in marijuana, THC, is not water soluble.

1. 1 cup water per person
2. 2 tablespoons of dried, not fresh, marijuana per serving--shake is fine
3. Tea strainer
4. Lemon wedge (optional)
5. Honey (optional)
6. Milk (optional)

Boil your water in a small saucepan or a teapot. While the water is boiling, fill your tea strainer with the marijuana, and place it into a mug or tea cup. When water has reached a boil, turn off the heat and pour the water into the cup, completely saturating the weed. Let it steep for 20-30 minutes before drinking. Flavor with freshly squeezed lemon juice, a tablespoon or two of honey and/or sugar, or milk if desired. You may also experiment with other fruit juices, such as orange, lime or cherry to sweeten your marijuana tea. Reheat if needed, using the stove or microwave.http://www.thestonerscookbook.com/recipe.php/recipe/marijuana-tea-weed-tea

Variation: You can also brew one of your favorite types of coffee along with the marijuana to make the flavor more palatable, if desired. Add milk and sugar to further enhance the taste.

Marijuana teas can be mixed with any other herbal tea of choice. This can create a better tasting beverage. Once the marijuana tea has been prepared in either water or milk, additional herbal teas can be steeped into the beverage. The tea may need to be reheated in order to allow the tea to brew properly. The drink can be sweetened with spoonfuls of sugar or honey, to suit the desired taste.

Marijuana is still illegal under federal law, although it is legalized for medical use in fourteen states.

Please do not think that just because it is legal in your state that you can freely smoke. You must have a medical card that allows you to smoke marijuana.
