How to make THC Olive Oil

Making delta-8 THC-infused olive oil is a straightforward process. Here's a simple recipe for you to try:

Delta-8 THC Infused Olive Oil:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 3-5 grams delta-8 THC distillate or tincture (adjust based on your desired potency)
  • Small glass jar with a lid

Instructions:

  1. Decarboxylation (Optional):
    • If you are using delta-8 THC distillate, this step is not necessary as distillate is already activated. However, if you are using a tincture, you may want to decarboxylate it. To do this, place the tincture in an oven-safe dish and bake it in the oven at 250°F (120°C) for about 30-45 minutes. This process activates the THC, making it more potent.
  2. Mix Delta-8 THC and Olive Oil:
    • In a small glass jar, combine the extra virgin olive oil and the delta-8 THC distillate or decarboxylated tincture.
  3. Stir Thoroughly:
    • Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure that the delta-8 THC is evenly distributed in the olive oil.
  4. Heat Gently (Optional):
    • If you want to speed up the infusion process, you can gently heat the mixture. Place the glass jar in a pot of simmering water (double boiler) for 30-60 minutes. Be sure not to overheat or boil the oil.
  5. Cool and Store:
    • Allow the infused olive oil to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, store the jar in a cool, dark place.
  6. Strain (Optional):
    • If you prefer a smoother olive oil without any plant material, you can strain the mixture using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth.
  7. Label and Store:
    • Clearly label the jar with the potency and contents. Store the delta-8 THC-infused olive oil in a cool, dark place, like a pantry or refrigerator.

Dosage Tips:

  • Start with a small amount to gauge your tolerance, especially if you are new to delta-8 THC.
  • Wait at least 1-2 hours before consuming more to assess the effects.

Before attempting to make or consume delta-8 THC-infused products, it's crucial to be aware of the legal status of delta-8 THC in your location. Also, consult with a healthcare professional if you have any health concerns or are taking medications. Consuming delta-8 THC responsibly is essential to ensure a positive and safe experience.
