CBD Spiked Cocktails
CBD spiked cocktails – do we have your attention?!? Here is a fun way to get CBD oil into your system and daily routine.
Goop recently hopped on-board the CBD bus and published a guide to CBD spiked cocktails, which sounded like a good idea to us, so we tried it! Take a look at the GIN + CHRONIC recipe and let us know what you think!
CBD is typically associated with feelings of relaxation, while alleviating nausea, anxiety, and other physical ailments.

(This last step is important. We like to drop the oil down an ice cube or under a flower and let it migrate as a whole, because as you know oil and liquid don’t mix. If you make the mistake of mixing it, your drink will NOT be pretty! And… we like things pretty!!)
