Adding CBD to cocktails can produce a different kind of buzz; one that gives you more of a mentally relaxed / chill feeling. We recommend using spirits with strong flavors, such as bourbon and tequila, to mask the unique hemp taste of non-flavored CBD.
If you prefer White Claws, CBD mixes well with water, too.
