What is a blackberry lemon cannabis mocktail?

A blackberry lemon cannabis mocktail is a delightful non-alcoholic twist on the conventional cocktail. It seamlessly blends the succulence of blackberries with the citrusy punch of lemons, creating a symphony of flavors you didn’t know you needed. 

We can go on and on about why our blackberry lemon buzztail is the ideal choice for those seeking a burst of flavors and excitement without alcohol. Instead of intoxication, it offers an uplifting experience. A classic blackberry lemon cocktail typically contains rum, but we steer clear of the booze. Instead, we infuse all our refreshments with low doses of cannabis.

Our cannabis infusion contains only 2 mg of Delta 9 THC per full dropper. These small amounts of cannabis produce mildly euphoric effects without overwhelming your senses and gluing you to the couch. 

Our THC beverages are mellow and have no adverse effects. Unlike booze, you won’t feel heavy—no hangover migraines, nausea, dehydration, or blackouts. Which is exactly what makes this blackberry lemon sipper such a revelation. 

Did we mention our liquid Buzz drops also contain cannabidiol (CBD)? Find out everything you need to know about the therapeutic nature of CBD. 

At 63 years old, I am new to this and quite impressed with this product! Just a dropper full in my non-alcoholic drink of choice and WOW! I feel relaxed and relieved.

What ingredients are used in this THC drink recipe?

This mocktail takes only a few minutes to whip up. The simplicity of this cocktail recipe allows you to enjoy a delightful combination of sweet and sour without the alcohol (everybody knows that alcohol is terrible for your health). Each serving of this cannabis-infused mocktail is not only a burst of flavor, but also a guilt-free pleasure, containing a mere 100 calories. 

You need only a few ingredients and even less time to treat your friends with a glass of cold THC-laced blackberry lemon mocktail. The star of this sipper is the rich, dark sweetness of blackberry preserves with a hint of the vibrant citrusy tang of lemons. Together, they create a beverage that is both refreshing and invigorating. 

Give our blackberry lemon mocktail a try and it will instantly become one of your favorite recipes for every occasion. Here’s what you need to make it:

• ½ ounce of blackberry preserves
• ½ ounce of simple syrup
• 1 dropper of Buzz drops (2.2 mg of THC)
• Tonic water
• Ice

Instructions:

1. In a cocktail shaker, combine the ice cubes, preserves, simple syrup, and nama’s Buzz drops and shake well. 
2. Fill your glass with fresh ice.
3. Grab a mesh sieve and strain the infused mixture in the glass.
4. Pour tonic water over. 
5. Garnish is optional (but recommended). Top your mocktail with a plump blackberry or a lemon peel.

Your blackberry lemon THC-infused mocktail is ready to sip and enjoy. 

Elevate your blackberry lemon mocktail

Our vibrant blend of tart blackberry preserves with citrusy lemons is elevated with the therapeutic touch of our low-dose THC infusion. We think this mocktail is pretty perfect as is, but don’t let that stop you from experimenting with flavors, ingredients, and preparation techniques. 

Here are some suggestions on how to enhance the enjoyment of our fragrant blackberry lemon beverage:

1. Swap out tonic water with your preferred effervescent choice. Virtually anything works, depending on your preference: soda water, sparkling water, club soda, and even ginger ale can lend their unique bubbly qualities, adding a layer of complexity to your mocktail.
2. Experiment with the citruses. By using blackberry preserves, you already get some of the tart lemon flavor as a bonus, but you can always add fresh lemon juice or lime juice for an extra boost. Any other citrus can work as well (e.g., orange juice and grapefruit juice).
3. We like our mocktails extra chilled, but you can tailor the temperature to your liking. If you’re not into super frosty drinks, skip the ice cubes in the cocktail shaker and opt for extra cold tonic water. Also, consider using a chilled glass to maintain a crisp and refreshing experience without dilution.
4. Don't limit yourself to the traditional cocktail glass. A tall glass or an old-fashioned highball glass is a stylish and practical vessel for your blackberry lemon buzztaill, but that doesn’t mean you can’t experiment with other glassware. A martini glass and a coupe glass are also popular choices. 
5. Instead of fresh blackberries as garnish, try lemon wedges for a visually appealing and flavor-packed garnish. A lime wedge can add a burst of color and flavor as it slowly releases more fresh juice into the drink. Go nuts with garnishes, try cinnamon sticks, star anise, or other fresh berries.
6. Speaking of cinnamon and star anise, you can always spice up your mocktail. Add a touch of cinnamon syrup to give your drink a festive touch. Splash some cream of coconut to turn this refreshing beverage into a creamy sensation. A touch of coconut water is another great option. Fresh mint sprigs or even a touch of maple syrup can add layers of complexity and nuance to your concoction.
7. If you’re into texture, instead of using a cocktail shaker with ice, muddle blackberries in a glass and top with fresh lemon or lime juice. 

The beauty of this mocktail lies in its adaptability. Feel free to experiment with flavors, ingredients, and personal touches. Whether it's a dash of citrus, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a unique infusion, let your creativity guide you. 

Our cannabis mixers are great, but our THC gummies are another great way to delight your palate. Pop one of our melon-infused Bliss gummies for the perfect bite-sized treat to de-stress and bring out the good vibes.

These gummies are the best. They are an absolute staple. They’ve replaced my happy hour glasses of wine.

Why are THC beverages better than alcohol?

Alcohol is notoriously bad for your physical and mental health. There are so many reasons why you should substitute booze with cannabis-infused mocktails. Here are a few of the most notable:

1. Faster onset of effects. You can feel the effects of THC beverages within 20 minutes of consumption. Sure, booze can get you pleasantly tipsy in the same amount of time, but alcoholic beverages simply don’t match the efficacy, safety, or elegance of a homemade THC drink. 
2. Longer-lasting effects. The effects of weed drinks can linger for up to six hours for some people. While that is a bit shorter than gummies—the THC effects of gummies can last for up to eight hours—it sure beats booze. Your body typically needs about one hour to metabolize a standard drink. This means that if you've had multiple drinks, it may take several hours for the alcohol to completely clear your system. By that time, you might be waking up to a hangover with unpleasant symptoms, whereas THC from weed drinks tends to wear off more smoothly, leaving you without the pounding headaches and other discomfort. 
3. Mellow effects. Speaking of hangovers and unpleasant symptoms, the effects of THC drinks are much more manageable because of the lower, controlled dosing. Two milligrams of THC and nearly three milligrams of CBD in our liquid Buzz drops are strong enough to provide relief or relaxation, but gentle enough to keep you functional and clear-headed. 

The stronger argument for replacing alcohol is that frequent and excessive alcohol intake often leads to alcoholism. Because of its therapeutic effects, microdosing cannabis may help alcoholism, alleviate withdrawal symptoms, and reduce cravings.

What are the benefits of THC drinks?

Whether you’re looking for a natural way to relieve pain, improve sleep quality, or simply want something tasty to boost your mood, cannabis in a glass comes with a diversity of health benefits. 

1. Low THC can improve sleep quality. It promotes relaxation and reduces the time it takes to fall asleep (sleep latency). Research shows that THC may decrease sleep latency and help maintain a regular sleep-wake cycle, which leads to restful nights.
2. You know about the munchies, right? Well, THC is known to increase appetite, promote food cravings, and improve nutritional intake, making it beneficial for individuals with medical conditions or undergoing treatments like chemotherapy. 
3. Low-dose cannabis has potent anticancer effects. According to Preet, et. al., “THC was able to inhibit tumor growth and lung metastases in a murine model of lung cancer.” 
4. THC has been found to promote neurogenesis, the formation of new neurons, which may be beneficial for brain health and potentially offer neuroprotective effects against conditions like dementia. One study review suggests that “THC promotes hippocampal neurogenesis, prevents neurodegenerative processes occurring in animal models of Alzheimer's disease, protects from inflammation-induced cognitive damage, and restores memory and cognitive function in old mice.”
5. Whenever you need a boost in motivation, low doses of THC are great for sharpening your focus.

So go ahead, sip on that cannabis-infused blackberry mocktail guilt-free. The right THC microdose in a tasty beverage offers bundles of science-backed benefits. A little mood boost, appetite stimulation, neuroprotection—and that’s just scratching the surface of what this compound can do.

Are drinks infused with THC legal?

Delta 9 THC is legal on a federal level, provided the products in question are compliant with the 2018 Farm Bill. For Farm Bill compliance, a product must meet the following criteria:

1. The Delta 9 THC must be derived from the hemp plant, not the marijuana plant. (Here’s what makes hemp different from marijuana.)

2. The THC product cannot contain more than 0.3% of Delta 9 THC by dry weight.

We adhere to the Farm Bill’s criteria, so our cannabis-infused drinks are legal at the federal level across the US. However, not all states have adopted these criteria into their legislation. Here’s a complete list of US states in which Delta 9 THC can be legally purchased. 

All our cannabis products are federally legal to purchase, so what are you waiting for? Order today and unlock a life of relaxation, relief, and euphoria. You deserve it.
