This article will teach you how to infuse CBD into tea, how to properly dose it, and where to get the ingredients to make the recipe.
It is fairly expensive to buy premade CBD tea packets, so we wanted to show people how they can save some money by making CBD tea themselves. There are two main benefits of making the tea yourself. The first benefit is the tea becomes much more affordable, the second benefit is you can control the potency to fit your preferences.
We recommend calculating the potency of the infused tea prior to making it. This will allow you to adjust the recipe so the tea contains the amount of CBD you want! Scroll to the bottom of this article and use the potency calculator to find a dosage you like.

To calculate the potency of the infused tea, measure the amount of CBD isolate used in the infusion. The package the CBD comes in should have guidelines and directions on how to do this. We use a scale to measure the amount of CBD the recipe needs. This method is more precise and we can get the exact dosage we need. CBD is measured in milligrams (mg), so if the scale reads 0.1g (grams) that is equivalent to 100mg.
