What Is Canna Sugar

When people think of cannabis, most people think of the actual plant or the oils used in many other substances like CBD oils. Canna sugar is another form of cannabis-infused ingredient but is less common and known.

It is basically sugar that has been infused with cannabis. It is regularly used in cooking, just like other cannabis-infused ingredients like cannabis oil and canna milk.

Just like cannabis, canna sugar contains many benefits which makes it a popular remedy for those with ailments like joint pain and anxiety. It is a natural mood lifter and can also be used as effective pain relief. It is anti-inflammatory and is very calming for some.

Because it is so useful, more and more people look for ways to use cannabis for these benefits and canna sugar is a way to naturally work cannabis into your diet. So, if you want to try out canna sugar for yourself, keep on reading our recipe!

What You Will Need

Before you start making your canna sugar, you will need to make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need to use.

You will need around 3 grams of cannabis, half a cup of granulated sugar and half a cup of high-proof alcohol. High proof alcohol refers to alcohols that contain a lot of ethanol, meaning that it’s very strong – popular high proof alcohol used in making canna sugar is Everclear, so if you are not sure which one to use, try that one out.

You will also need equipment such as a rimmed baking tray, some baking paper, and a strainer.

To start, preheat your oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and start to grind up your cannabis until it is coarse to touch. Line your baking tray with some baking paper, spread your cannabis over the paper and bake it in the oven for 40 minutes while checking regularly.

Once your cannabis is done and has become a lot darker, remove it from the oven and transfer the cannabis into a dish or jar. Pour in the alcohol and cover the dish/jar, leaving the alcohol to work its magic for around 20 minutes.

After that, strain the alcohol mixture into a bowl. Mix in your sugar and spread it back into your baking tray until it is even.

Bake this in the oven at 200 degrees Fahrenheit until the alcohol has evaporated and you are left with a yellowish sugar. Stirring regularly will help the alcohol to evaporate quicker and prevent your sugar from burning in the oven.

Once you have your canna sugar, remember to allow it to cool before you use it.

Storing Your Canna Sugar

Canna sugar won’t last forever and over time, it loses its potency. However, there are some steps you can take to help make your canna sugar last longer.

The first step is to store your canna sugar in a sealed container. Exposure to air and moisture will help reduce your canna sugar’s potency so once it has cooled after baking, remember to seal it properly to prevent this from happening.

It’s also recommended that you store your canna sugar away from sunlight for the same reason, so place it somewhere dark and cool like in a cabinet.

You should also ensure that your canna sugar is out of reach of children and animals as pets.

Using Canna Sugar

Canna sugar should be used in very small amounts at a time due to how effective cannabis is. It is very powerful when it comes to altering your mind and relieving pain, but too much can cause you to feel ill or anxious.

So, it’s best to use very little canna sugar in one go.

For example, you can use it as a sweetener when eating oatmeal or drinking coffee. You can replace sugar with canna sugar in brownies or cookies to make edibles (just remember not to eat a lot in one go) or sprinkle sugar over other desserts.

Canna sugar is mostly ingested, or you can leave a tiny sprinkle under your tongue to feel its effects.

Remember that when taking any kind of cannabis-infused ingredients, it’s best to start out with a very small amount and build yourself up until you feel the effects you want.

While some people may need a larger dose to feel its effects, other people only need a small amount so avoid overdosing by starting out small.

Conclusion

Cannabis has a lot of useful properties that make it very desirable today. It is often used as a mood booster and natural remedy for pain relief, but how people use it varies from person to person.

Canna sugar is a great way to naturally include more cannabis into your everyday diet so you can feel its effects.

Plus, it’s super easy to make as long as you follow the recipe above – so you can enjoy your own homemade canna sugar and all its benefits with little effort and stress.

Just remember to monitor your cannabis and sugar as it bakes, and you will master the art of making your own canna sugar in no time!
