Perfect Summer Drink Recipes: Real-Fruit Iced Tea & a Frozen Cannarita

3 min read

There is something about a cold drink on a sunny afternoon that makes summer feel complete. While canned cannabis beverages are refreshing straight from the fridge, they can also become the starting point for something a little more creative.

These two alcohol-free cannabis drink recipes use bright citrus, real fruit and familiar summer flavours without leaning into the usual cannabis clichés. Make the Real-Fruit Infused Iced Tea for relaxed patio sipping, or blend up a Frozen Cannarita when you want something frosty, tart and margarita-inspired.

Real-Fruit Infused THC Iced Tea

TeaPot Rosin Infused Lemon Black Tea combines real black tea, natural lemon flavour and 10 mg of THC in one 355 mL can. Fresh fruit, mint and sparkling water turn it into a simple summer punch that is easy to prepare and share.

Ingredients

  • 1 can TeaPot Rosin Infused Lemon Black Tea, chilled
  • ½ cup sliced strawberries, peaches or mixed berries
  • 3–4 thin lemon slices
  • 4–6 fresh mint leaves
  • ½ cup chilled sparkling water
  • Ice
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon honey or simple syrup

Instructions

  1. Add the sliced fruit, lemon and mint to a small pitcher.
  2. Lightly press the ingredients with the back of a spoon to release some of their juices and aromas. Avoid completely crushing the fruit.
  3. Fill the pitcher with ice.
  4. Slowly pour in the TeaPot Lemon Black Tea and sparkling water.
  5. Stir thoroughly so the beverage is evenly mixed.
  6. Divide equally between two glasses and garnish with additional fruit or mint.

Serving and potency

One full can contains 10 mg of THC. When the recipe is evenly divided into two servings, each glass contains approximately 5 mg of THC.

For a lighter option, divide the pitcher into four smaller servings or add more sparkling water. Clearly label each infused glass, especially when serving alongside non-infused drinks.

Make it your own

Try peaches and basil for a garden-inspired version, strawberries and mint for a classic summer combination, or raspberries and lemon for something bright and slightly tart.

Frozen Cannarita: A Margarita-Inspired Cannabis Mocktail

This frozen Cannarita delivers the citrus, salt and icy texture associated with a frozen margarita—without the alcohol. MOD THC:CBD Drops make it possible to control the amount added to an individual serving.

According to the product label, two drops contain approximately 1 mg of THC and 1 mg of CBD.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen mango or pineapple
  • ¾ cup chilled coconut water or lime sparkling water
  • 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon agave syrup
  • A small pinch of salt
  • 2 drops MOD THC:CBD Drops
  • ½ cup ice, as needed

For the rim:

  • Lime wedge
  • Salt or chili-lime seasoning

Instructions

  1. Run a lime wedge around the rim of a glass.
  2. Dip the rim into salt or chili-lime seasoning and set the glass aside.
  3. Add the frozen fruit, coconut water, lime juice, agave, salt and ice to a blender.
  4. Blend until smooth and slushy. Add a little more liquid if the mixture is too thick.
  5. Add two MOD drops and blend again briefly to distribute them evenly.
  6. Pour into the prepared glass and garnish with a lime wheel.

Serving and potency

Using two MOD drops creates one drink containing approximately 1 mg of THC and 1 mg of CBD.

Cannabis affects everyone differently, so measure the drops carefully and follow the directions printed on the product packaging. Adding more drops can change the potency quickly.

Easy flavour variations

Replace the mango with frozen watermelon for a lighter version, use pineapple with a splash of orange juice for a tropical twist, or blend frozen strawberries with lime for a tart berry Cannarita.

A Few Tips for Making Cannabis Drinks at Home

Always stir or blend infused beverages thoroughly before serving. When preparing a larger batch, divide it evenly so each portion contains a similar amount.

Keep infused drinks clearly separated from regular beverages, and let everyone know what is in the glass before serving it. It is also a good idea to prepare a non-infused version using the same fruit and flavours.

Start with a lower amount, take your time and wait to understand the effects before consuming more. Never drive after consuming cannabis, and keep all cannabis products away from children and pets.
