- Use a tea infuser or cheesecloth to avoid bits of cannabis in the tea.

We are sure you are a perfect cook! Nonetheless, do remember to pay attention to the amount of Cannabis Tea you consume: it should always be modified based on the strength of your product and the potency you desire. Dosing homemade edibles can be tricky, so it is strongly recommended to start with one portion of a serving. After one or two hours, listen to your body and decide whether to consume more. It is not recommended to drive or operate any machinery when taking edibles. Use responsibly!
