“I want to add CBD to all my favorite recipes without worrying about needing to bind it to some form of fat first!” 

Alright, we heard you. And we’ve come up with the perfect solution: our NEW CBD capsules. Unlike our Organic CBD Tinctures, which must be infused into a fatty base ingredient (e.g., oil, ghee, or butter) to enhance its absorption, our new CBD capsules are water-soluble. 

Add them to quite literally any recipe containing liquid, and they’re instantly highly bioavailable. 

Our new water-soluble CBD capsules 

Because first, let’s talk about what you’re most interested in. The details:

• How much CBD per capsule? 25mg.
• Are they easy to open? Yes, our new water-soluble CBD capsules are specifically designed to be easily opened for an enjoyable, fuss-free cooking experience. 
• What do they taste like? They’re neutral-tasting, with little to no flavor and aroma. This means they’re a highly versatile ingredient that won’t interfere with the flavor of your finished dish or drink. 

Incorporating our CBD capsules into recipes

While highly versatile, there are a few pointers to keep in mind when incorporating our new water-soluble CBD capsules into your favorite recipes: 

• Temperature: Heat is important to the decarboxylation process, which makes CBD more effective. But too much heat can destroy many of its active compounds—leaving you with a finished dish or drink with no positive benefits (well, besides being tasty). The boiling point of CBD is 320-356°F. So, ideally, stick with recipes that cook at <350°F.

• Serving size: Plan for your desired amount of CBD per serving of food before cooking. For example, if you’d like each slice of pumpkin bread (assuming you cut a loaf into eight generous slices; recipe below!) to contain at least 10mg of CBD, you’d need to add at least four of our water-soluble CBD capsules (for a minimum of 100mg of CBD).

• Storage: CBD is extremely sensitive to light and heat and does best when stored in a cool, dark place. So, please store unfinished dishes, drinks, and baked goods in airtight containers that aren’t exposed to sunlight or warmth. 

Have you already thought of recipes you’d like to add our new water-soluble CBD capsules to? Great! But if you haven’t, no worries. Here are three to inspire you (and whet your appetite). 

CBD-Infused Hibiscus Cinnamon Iced Tea

Ingredients

• Desired number of water-soluble CBD capsules (we recommend 1-2)
• 1 tbsp dried hibiscus flowers (or 2 hibiscus tea bags)
• 1 cinnamon stick (or ½ tsp ground cinnamon)
• 2 cups boiling water
• 1 tbsp honey (or more to taste)
• 1 tsp fresh lime juice
• Ice cubes
• Fresh mint leaves or lime slices for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. In a heatproof pitcher, add the dried hibiscus flowers (or tea bags) and the cinnamon stick.
2. Pour the boiling water over the hibiscus and cinnamon, then steep for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop.
3. Strain the tea (or remove the tea bags) and stir in the honey until dissolved. Let the tea cool to room temperature.
4. Once cooled, add the contents of your water-soluble CBD capsules and the lime juice. Stir well.
5. Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the CBD-infused hibiscus cinnamon tea over the ice, and garnish with fresh mint leaves or lime slices.
6. Enjoy this refreshing, slightly tangy, and aromatic iced tea!

This recipe combines the tartness of hibiscus with the warmth of cinnamon for an interesting and flavorful tea!

CBD-Infused Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Bread

Ingredients

Yield: 1 large loaf

Desired number of water-soluble CBD capsules (we recommend 4)

1¾ cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

2 tsp ground cinnamon 

¼ tsp ground nutmeg

¼ tsp ground cloves

¼ tsp ground ginger

¾ tsp salt

2 large eggs at room temperature

½ cup granulated sugar 

¾ cup light brown sugar 

1½ cups canned pumpkin puree

½ cup vegetable oil

¼ cup orange juice

⅔ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 

Directions 

1. Preheat the oven to 340°F. Grease a metal 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 
2. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, salt, and the contents of the water-soluble CBD capsules together until combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until combined. Whisk in the pumpkin, oil, and orange juice.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix with a rubber spatula. Do not over-mix. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.  
4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 80-85 minutes, loosely covering the bread with aluminum foil halfway through to prevent the top from getting too brown. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean with only a few small moist crumbs (begin checking every 5 minutes around the 70-minute mark).
5. Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before removing and slicing. Enjoy!
