Microdose cocktails are a phenomenal way to dip your toe into THC and enjoy the mild side of cannabis. Whether you want to replace alcoholic drinks or just try something easygoing and new, microdose cocktails will give you an enjoyable buzz. Learn all about them below!
What Are Microdose Cocktails?
Microdose cocktails are drinks made with a very small amount of a psychoactive substance. Microdose THC cocktails have become popular recently, allowing people to enjoy tiny doses of THC that they can completely control. A microdose cocktail can have just 1mg of THC or maybe even less. But they can also have up to 5mg of THC and still be considered a microdose.
You can use THC tinctures or THC seltzers to microdose drinks, whether you’re enjoying a non-alcoholic old fashioned or a sweet lemonade. Not only are microdoses wonderful for controlling your THC consumption, but they’re an excellent alternative to alcohol! You won’t get a hangover or the many nasty health effects that come with drinking alcohol. Use our microdosed THC seltzers to mix magnificent mocktails that give you a light high without the headache.
What Are Microdose Seltzers?
Microdose seltzers, like Find Wunder Sessions, are bubbly beverages that already come with a small dose of THC in them. This is ideal for people who are concerned about managing the dose themselves.
Even with a tincture, it can be hard to deliver a precise dose to your drinks. But with drinks like Find Wunder, you know exactly how much THC is in each can.
Microdose seltzers, like microdose cocktails, can have 1mg to 5mg of THC. Some seltzers have more than 5mg. At that point, most people don’t consider them microdosed but middosed, which we’ll talk about more later.
The Perks of Microdosing
So, why microdose? What’s the point? What are the benefits? Let’s get into it!
More Control Over Dosage
The top reason to microdose is that you have more control over your consumption. You can’t microdose well when you’re smoking a joint or ripping a bong. You might have no idea how many milligrams of THC you’re getting at any given time. But when you drink microdose cocktails or seltzers, you get a controlled amount.
Slower Come-Up to the High
When you smoke cannabis or eat a super strong edible, the come-up can be fast and intense. You may start to feel uncomfortable, experiencing anxiety, paranoia, or headaches. For people who don’t consume cannabis regularly, this rapid come-up can be quite unpleasant and even scary. Microdosing is an easy way to take it slow and pace yourself.
Gentler High
Along with a slower come-up, the high from microdose cocktails is much lighter and gentler. If you’re concerned about getting too high and feeling uneasy, microdosing is a brilliant way to ease your way into a soft but euphoric feeling. Depending on the size of your microdose, you may not experience any psychoactive effects at all.
Pain Management
For people who like to consume THC and CBD for pain management but don’t necessarily want to be sky-high, microdosing is ideal. Just a small amount of cannabis can help soothe aches and pains, giving you a mild body high that allows you to relax.
Lowered Anxiety and Stress
Microdosing is also fantastic for people who like how cannabis reduces anxiety and stress. Consuming too much THC can lead to anxiety, which is the opposite of what we want. Taking a microdose gives you the relaxing benefits without getting you high enough to experience any anxiety or paranoia.
Improved Sleep
A tiny amount of THC and CBD can help lull you to sleep without getting you high. There’s really no point in getting properly high if you’re just trying to go to sleep. If you use cannabis to improve your sleep, a microdose is a great way to make yourself sleepy and relaxed without taking an unnecessary amount. Plus, getting too high before bed could make it harder for certain people to sleep.
Microdosing vs. Middosing vs. Macrodosing
Alright, let’s break down the differences between microdosing, middosing, and macrodosing. Everyone will have their own opinion about what qualifies as a small dose or a large dose. But these are how we like to define each type of dosage:
- Microdosing: 1mg-5mg
- Middosing: 5mg-20mg
- Macrodosing: 20mg+
Microdosing is about taking just enough to start to feel the effects, even if you only feel a body high and no psychoactive effects. Middosing is the most common form of consuming cannabis drinks. People may have one or two seltzers within a few hours to experience a pleasant and noticeable high. Macrodosing is for those who want to hit Cloud-9.
If you’re just trying cannabis for the first time, these three dosage options can help you navigate your consumption. Start with microdosed drinks, like Sessions, and when you’re ready, you can move on to middosed drinks, like our Higher Vibes.
