    Benefits of CBD 

    The benefits of this chemical are well known yet highly disputed. While many claim to have proof that CBD can mitigate swelling and relax anxiety or stress, others deny these statements. However, what we can tell you is that CBD has the potential to: 

    • Treat epilepsy 
    • Reduce the symptoms of post-traumatic-stress-disorder 
    • Mitigate opioid and other drug cravings 
    • Lower swelling and pain 

    What is CBD Honey? 

    This is simple a new and improved honey that packs lots of potential health benefits. Essentially, the honey is the same, the only difference is the infusion of CBD. This step determines the potency per mL.  
    CBD honey is an excellent source of: 

    • Protein
    • B-vitamins 
    • Magnesium 
    • A, C, and E vitamins 
    • Essential fatty acids 

    Did you know that there’s a wide variety of uses for honey? Try using it to top your toast, as a healthier dressing alternative, or to glaze a ham! One of our favorite ways is to sweeten cocktails, which are equally enjoyable no matter the weather!  
    Any mouth-watering recipe you find and want to try you can do so with our CBD honey sticks! Simply add to your drink and stir or sprinkle over fruit. Also, if sticks aren’t what you’re looking for, maybe you’d prefer CBD honey tinctures.

    • Topically 
    • Under the tongue

    Common CBD Honey Questions  

    Is Making CBD Honey at Home Easy? 

    While the process of making CBD may seem like a simple task, producing quality results is an entirely different matter. If you wish to use CBD honey, the best option by far is to purchase a product on the market. 
    Making CBD takes a vast amount of knowledge and isn’t for everyone. With so much information buzzing around, separating fact from fiction in the cannabis world is hazy at times. Here are some obstacles you may not expect at first. 
    Honey absorbs water-soluble solutions much more efficiently than crystalline or oil-based matter. To the untrained eye, unintentionally selecting the wrong choice is quite easy. 
    Secondly, potency is key, not just a money-saver. If you’re goal is to save money this simply isn’t the way. While CBD is effective and our bodies naturally welcome it, the correct dosage is crucial. If there isn’t enough concentration in your bloodstream, the effects will be negligible at best. 
    By choosing commercial products from a reputable source, you have the option to select the potency you need. This solves the first issue of improper dosing. The second issue lies in how much you take. While we all have tolerances, make sure to adhere to the label on the product.  

    Will My Pets Be Okay if They Eat CBD Honey? 

    Unfortunately, it depends on your pet. Dogs can safely tolerate CBD and honey without concern. Often, owners use honey as a means a delivery method to calm a dog down during thunderstorms or fireworks. 
    Alternatively, while cats tolerate CBD, some may have issues with honey. While it can improve immune systems in some feline friends, in others they may develop digestive problems. 

    Dopest Cocktail Recipes! Delicious CBD-Infused Cocktails 

    What’s your favorite drink? Pina Coladas? Screwdrivers? Manhattans? Whichever you’d prefer, they all make savory popsicles. Besides the necessary ingredients, you’ll need a popsicle mold and sticks. To save money in the long run, consider reusable sticks. 
    After combining the ingredients, either stir in a packet of CBD sticks or stir in several drops of CBD honey tincture. Either way, once fully shaken or stirred, pour the liquid into the molds but don’t forget the sticks! On the other hand, try pouring them into an ice cube tray. This way, your next drink won’t become water down. 
    Here are some of our favorite mixers!
