Who doesn’t like to start their day with a steaming cup of coffee? Some of us here like to have flavored coffee every morning. CBD enthusiasts, however, have a different question which may sound strange.
Is it okay to drink coffee infused with CBD?
If you ask us, we would say a more appropriate question would be if it’s okay to mix CBD and coffee.
We have heard of cases where people actually tried this combination while the majority of CBD lovers opt not to. Cannabidiol or CBD is supposed to help people relax while coffee just pumps you up for the day, right? So you are not supposed to mix both, right?
The short answer is no.
The combination of CBD and coffee is magical. At KC Smokz, we recommend all of our CBD customers to try this magical brew at least once.
Mixing CBD and Coffee
A mix of CBD and coffee boosts you physically, mentally and spiritually offering the best benefits of both its ingredients. However, technically speaking, a combination of these two raises a lot of questions and is a subject of debate primarily due to the fact that these two substances are opposites when it comes to properties and effects. So it’s no surprise why many people think this would just confuse our biological system.
The solution is simple though. All that matters is the proportion. With the right proportion, CBD can enhance that boost you get from coffee without increasing your heart rate or leading to anxiety problems. CBD is not psychotropic.
Which CBD product should you use
You can use CBD oils which come in olive oil and hemp seed variants. The former is pure cannabidiol and quite strong, while the latter is meant to enhance flavors. Always store them both in cool, dark places away from sunlight. CBD oils are generally preferred to mix with coffee.
But if you don’t want to use oils, you can go for CBD crystals instead. There are also CBD edibles you can eat along with a normal cup of coffee.
The proportions
If you are using CBD oils, you can easily prepare the magical brew. Simply make a cup of coffee with the beans you like and then add a few drops of CBD oil into it. We recommend starting with 10mg per cup first. See how it goes for you. If you don’t feel the effects, go for 20mg per cup next time. You need not be concerned as nothing bad will happen if you do this; not even an upset stomach. Because you are essentially mixing oil with water, you will notice the oil on the surface.
You can also use CBD-infused coffee beans in which case, you need only brew the drink to consume it. If you use CBD-infused coffee beans, you won’t be able to increase the CBD dose per cup however.
That’s it. Try it out and let us know your experience. Remember, you won’t be getting any jitters from this and neither will you get high. What you will get is a sense of calmness and relaxation but full of energy. You can ask your doctor if you still think this is a bad idea.
