Directions
Setup Your Double Boiler: Fill the bottom part of your double boiler with water, making sure the water doesn’t touch the top pan. If you don't have a double boiler, simply fill a pot with a few inches of water and place a heatproof bowl on top, ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water.
Warm the Honey: Pour the 2 cups of honey into the top part of the double boiler or the heatproof bowl. Begin to heat the water in the lower pan to a gentle simmer, ensuring the honey warms slowly. If you have a thermometer, try to keep the honey below 110°F (43°C) to maintain its raw properties. Stir occasionally.
Add the CBD Isolate: Once the honey is warmed (but not hot), slowly sprinkle in the 5 grams of CBD isolate while continuously stirring to ensure even distribution. Continue to whisk or stir the honey for about 10 minutes, ensuring the CBD isolate is fully dissolved into the honey.
Cool and Store: Once the CBD is fully integrated into the honey, remove the double boiler from the heat. Allow the CBD-infused honey to cool for a few minutes. Then, transfer it to a jar or container with a tight-fitting lid.
Usage & Storage: Store your CBD-infused honey in a cool, dark place. It can be used just like regular honey – drizzled on toast, stirred into tea, or taken directly. Remember, the potency will be based on the amount you use and the initial CBD content. Always start with a small amount and adjust as needed.

Ways to Enjoy Your Infusion
