CBD Drinks
CBD'd Strawberry Mojito
Like all things stoner, we're going to keep this drink simple. In a cocktail shaker, start by adding some drops of a CBD tincture like Lord Jones' Lemon flavored tincture . Then add a handful of chopped strawberries, some mint, and some lime slices. Muddle that together. If you're going to add rum, do it now and shake it together. Fill a glass with ice and pour the strawberry mixture into it. Top it with a strawberry flavored soda water and enjoy.

Peppermint Mocha CBD Latte
Instead of paying over $10 to get your CBD pick-me-up, you can make it at home for next to nothing. Start with a shot of espresso or a really strong cup of coffee. While that's brewing, in a coffee cup whip together about a tablespoon of your favorite brand of mocha , a few drops of peppermint CBD tincture with a bit of coffee, leaving room for milk. If you have a milk frother , froth your milk now and pour it on top. Then do a chef's kiss.
