It is important to understand that not all cannabis strains are created equal. The strain of cannabis and the type of cannabis product you use will have a significant impact on the final drink. For example, if you want to make a drink that gets you high, you should use a strain that contains THC. If you’re looking for a therapeutic drink to relax you with without any psychoactive effects, consider using a high-CBD, low-THC strain.
