Cannabutter is one of the most popular ways to consume cannabis. It can be used in a variety of recipes or simply eaten on its own.
The therapeutic effects produced by cannabis depend on a process called decarboxylation similar to smoking a joint or a pipe, where the cannabinoids (primarily THC and CBD) must be activated through heat. It is a simple process that allows infusions without further cooking.
Canna butter causes subtle feelings of comfort and euphoria and It is a lovely addition to a delicious meal.
