Tips for a Safe Experience
1. Proper Dosage:
It’s crucial to dose the cannabis in your mojito correctly to avoid unwanted effects. Start with a low amount and adjust based on your personal tolerance.
2. Decarboxylation:
Before adding cannabis to your mojito, make sure it’s been decarboxylated to activate its psychoactive compounds. This will ensure an effective and pleasant experience.
3. Rum Selection:
Use a good quality white rum for your weed mojito. Its smooth flavor pairs perfectly with the herbal and citrus notes of the cocktail.
4. Fresh Ingredients:
Always choose fresh, high-quality ingredients such as freshly squeezed lemon juice and mint leaves for the best flavor.
5. Responsible Consumption:
Always consume your weed mojito responsibly and in a safe environment. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery after consuming cannabis.
