Cannabis-Infused Salt

Discover how to make super versatile cannabis-infused salt that can jazz up anything from your margarita glass to popcorn. 

The Ingredients

Cannabis Tincture: Before we get started, you’ll need to prepare a cannabis tincture, which is decarboxylated cannabis soaked in food-grade alcohol. You can use either the green dragon or golden dragon tincture from our cannabis tincture guide.

Salt: Any salt should work great with this recipe! The process is also the same for cannabis-infused sugar.

The Process

1. Add the salt to a baking dish.
2. Pour your tincture over the salt.
3. Use a silicone spatula to mix the salt and tincture thoroughly, coating the salt. The mixture will resemble wet sand.
4. Cover the dish with a layer of cheesecloth to keep dust, cat hair, fairies, and other debris out of your salt.
5. Place the dish somewhere it won’t be disturbed and allow the alcohol to evaporate completely. Stir frequently to ensure complete evaporation. If you’re looking to speed up evaporation, keep in mind that alcohol is EXTREMELY flammable. I use a heat mat for seedlings underneath my baking dish as a low heat source to speed up evaporation.
6. The salt is ready when it again looks like dry salt, and it no longer smells like alcohol.
7. Store your cannabis-infused salt in an air-tight container in a cool, dark place.

Storing Cannabis-Infused Salt

The end product of this recipe is shelf-stable and can be kept in an air-tight container in a cool, dark place for a long time.
