Equipment
- Saucepan
- Whisk
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Mugs
Ingredients
- 2 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar or sweetener of choice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 grams cannabis flower or cannabis-infused oil
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until warm but not boiling
- Add the cocoa powder, granulated sugar (or sweetener), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt to the saucepan. Whisk until the cocoa powder and sugar are completely dissolved
- If using cannabis flower, finely grind the cannabis and decarboxylate it by baking it in the oven at 240°F (116°C) for 30-40 minutes. Once decarbed, add the ground cannabis to the saucepan with the other ingredients. If using cannabis-infused oil, add it directly to the saucepan
- Continue to heat the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, for 5-10 minutes. This will allow the cannabis to infuse into the milk
- Once the Canna-Cocoa is heated through and infused to your liking, remove the saucepan from the heat
- Strain the Canna-Cocoa through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any plant material, if desired
- Pour the infused cocoa into mugs and garnish with optional toppings such as whipped cream, marshmallows, or chocolate shavings
- Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, comforting flavors of Canna-Cocoa
Notes

- Be cautious with dosage, especially if you are new to consuming cannabis-infused beverages.
- This recipe can be easily customized by adding spices such as cinnamon or nutmeg for additional flavor.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat before serving.
