After endless holiday champagne toasts and sips of spiked nog, many of us are ready to take a break from alcohol. But that's no reason not to have a little fun, right? You can enjoy all the good vibes, and none of the hangovers, with this refreshing, cannabis-infused mocktail. 

The “Dry Cannuary” by Velvet combines the classic cocktail components of citrus, simple syrup, and bitters with a small dose of cannabis tincture, resulting in a crushable quaff that'll have you rethinking going back to the bottle in February.

Use the recipe below as a starting point, then experiment with different types of citrus or sweeteners—we love maple syrup for added depth of flavor—and adjust the amount of tincture based on your preference. Remember: start low and go slow: 5mg of tincture is roughly the equivalent of a low-dose edible.

We recommend Heavy Hitters' HVY Grand, a fast-acting, single-strain nano emulsion with an uplifting character for mocktails. It features notes of grapefruit and ginger, as well as Acapulco Gold terpenes. Shop VelvetCannabis.com for our latest tincture offerings.
