What is weed wine?

When you think of wine you’re most likely thinking of the bottles you buy from the store that are made out of various fruits. You might be surprised to learn that weed wine is actually pretty close to your traditional bottle of wine.

Wines made with weed are made from grapes and then infused with weed. There are many ways to infuse weed into wine from cold in-barrell processes to putting the concoction in a plastic jug.

No matter what the method is the idea here is to infuse the cannabinoids and terpenes from the plant itself into the wine mixture. If you think of how herbs can be infused into wine (such as mint and thyme to name a few) it’s the same age-old process.

Even though the process seems simple there is a lot of planning that goes into each bottle. Just like master winemakers choose each grape they bottle carefully winemakers that infuse their vint with weed choose each strand carefully.

Lighter wines such as moscatos will have sativa strands that are fruity and have citrus-heavy terpenes. On the other side of the spectrum, heavier wines such as merlots will have pungent and bold indicas.

Medical marijuana wine recipe

The recipe provided here is a quick and easy one, not requiring too many steps. It is ideal for times when you need a quick and easy drink. So here are the ingredients and materials you`ll need for the process:

A bottle of your favorite wine
A half ounce of weed
Crockpot
Pan
Foil
Cheesecloth or strainer
Grinder

Directions

Simply follow the steps outlined below to make a tantalizing marijuana wine:

The first thing is decarboxylating your weed. This means the weed is activated to exert its effect. In this case, the CBDATHCA molecules are converted by the action of heat to CBD/THC
To do this, first, line up the pan with the foils. Break up the buds into smaller bits and place them on the pan. Be sure to spread them out evenly on the pan. Next, cover it up with another strip of foil and introduce it into the oven. Heat the cannabis buds for 110 minutes at a temperature of 230°F.
Now, allow the heated cannabis to cool, then grind it into a powdery form using a weed grinder. Using the cheesecloth, tie up the ground cannabis so that you have a “teabag” kind of arrangement.
Turn on the crockpot. Pour the bottle of wine into the crockpot, then place your cannabis tea bag gently into the pot. Cover it and heat it for 2 hours. You can actually add one or more flavors of your choice into the pot. You can get a suitable wine flavor like cinnamon in a nearby store.
Keep an eye on the pot. You want to ensure that the weed inside it does not burn. Keeping it at a low heat.
Note that when choosing your wine and cannabis it is best that they complement each other. For instance, heavy wines like merlots will be most suited for old indicas.
Allow the wine to cool for a little while. Then use a strainer to strain it into a bottle or container. This will push out every remaining trace of plant material in the wine. Finally, you can refrigerate the wine and serve it when you want. Enjoy responsibly!
