GRAV Cannabis Cocktail Recipes

GINGER MINT ICED TEA·HC

A little sweet, a little spicy. This iced tea drink combines cooling mint and zesty ginger for a fresh summer concoction. Honey and a bit of sweetness from the GRAV Cannabis Spirit - Iced Tea make it go down smooooooth.

Ingredients 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit - Iced Tea

1.5 cups Ginger Mint Iced Tea (see recipe below)

Fresh mint for garnish

Combine GRAV Cannabis Spirit - Iced Tea and Ginger Mint Iced Tea in a highball glass over ice. Garnish with fresh mint. 

To make Ginger Mint Iced Tea:

3 cups water

¼ cup fresh ginger, cut into slices

¼ cup fresh mint leaves

Juice of half a lemon

2 tbsp honey

Combine water and ginger in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer for about three minutes. 

Add fresh mint, lemon juice, and honey, and simmer for three more minutes. Strain and chill. 

HEAD SHOP SHRUB

A shrub is a drinking vinegar made with fruit, sugar, vinegar, and sometimes herbs and spices. They’re a little sweet and a little tart, and they add complexity and lip-smacking goodness to cocktails and mocktails. Fancy restaurants use shrubs to justify charging $14 for a mocktail, but when they taste this good, it’s hard to be too mad about it. 

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

1 oz Blueberry Basil Shrub (see recipe below)

Seltzer water

Fresh blueberries and basil for garnish

In a tall glass, pour GRAV Cannabis Spirit and Blueberry Basil Shrub over ice. Top with seltzer water and garnish with blueberries and basil. 

To make your Blueberry Basil Shrub: 

2 cups blueberries

1 cup granulated sugar

¼ cup basil

1 cup apple cider vinegar

Muddle blueberries in a bowl by smooshing them with a muddler or wooden spoon. Add granulated sugar and basil leaves and stir. 

Put mixture in an airtight container and let it sit for about 24 hours. 

Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, squeezing out as much juice as possible. 

Add vinegar to the mixture and let sit for about a week so the flavors get all friendly and mellow.

HIGH TIMES PINEAPPLE MARG

Picture this. It’s peak summer. Not a cloud in the sky. You’re laid out by the pool, chilling under an umbrella. Strip of sunscreen down your nose like the nerd from a 1950s beach movie. The hell do you care? You’re sipping a THC-spiked frozen pineapple marg, listening to summer jams. Your dog is lounging in the pool on a float shaped like a pizza slice. Life is good. 

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit or 50 ml (1 mini bottle) GRAV Cannabis Spirit Flavor Shot in Pineapple Breeze

1.5 cups frozen pineapple chunks

2 teaspoons agave nectar

Juice from 1 lime

Splash of orange juice

1/2 cup ice

Kosher salt

Rub a lime wedge around the rim of a margarita glass and dip the limey rim into a plate of kosher salt. 

Combine Cannabis Spirit, frozen pineapple, agave nectar, lime juice, orange juice, and ice in the pitcher of a blender. Blend until slushy. 

Pour frozen mixture into salt-rimmed margarita glass. Garnish with a pineapple wedge and a little umbrella. 

Note on the dose: GRAV Cannabis Spirit has 20mg of THC per serving. GRAV Cannabis Spirit Flavor Shots have 100mg of THC per serving. That’s a big difference. So know your own tolerance before you partake, ‘kay? 

FLOWER CHILD

Get your garden on. This fresh, springtime-y drink gets double flower power, with Cannabis Spirit and floral elderflower syrup. If you’re lucky enough to have fresh elderflowers on hand, you can make your own syrup. But since elderflowers are seasonal and not available everywhere, store-bought may be an easier choice. Le Sirop de Monin and Belvoir Farm both make elderflower syrups that are easily accessible.  

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit 

1 oz elderflower syrup

¼ cup pear juice

¼ cup pomegranate juice

½ oz lemon juice

Combine all ingredients in a shaker tin over ice. Cap the tin and shake-shake-shake until well-chilled. Strain into a martini or coupe glass and top with an edible flower.

GRAV BOMB

A heart-pounding jolt of energy drink mixed with a relaxing dose of THC. A little up, a little down, a lot good. 

Ingredients:

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

1 heavy pour of energy drink

Squeeze of lime or orange

Fill a pint glass with ice and combine Cannabis Spirit, energy drink, and a squeeze of citrus. Enjoy. 

Alternative method: 

Pour Cannabis Spirit into a shot glass. Pour your chosen energy drink into a pint glass, leaving about an inch of empty space below the rim. Squeeze in citrus.

Carefully drop the entire shot glass into the pint glass, and toss the whole drink back in a few giant gulps. Be careful: the shot glass will slide around in there, and you don’t want to chip your front teeth. 

BLOODY MARY JANE

The breakfast of champions. Unlike the vodka version, this savory Bloody Mary won’t sap your energy and leave you with a hangover at 4pm. 

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

4 oz tomato juice

½ oz lemon juice

2 dashes Worcestershire

2 dashes hot sauce

¼ teaspoon horseradish

Pinch of salt & pepper

Combine all ingredients in a shaker over ice, and gently pour back and forth a few times between the shaker and a glass. Strain into a tall glass with fresh ice. 

Garnish with celery, olives, cheese squares, a blunt, or literally anything you can think of.

CHILLER PUNCH BOWL

Why did people stop serving punch at parties? It’s cute, it makes getting a drink easy for your guests, and you can find outstanding old punch bowl sets at antique stores all over the place. I say long live punch. 

Ingredients: 

1 750-milliliter bottle GRAV Cannabis Spirit

12-ounce can frozen orange juice concentrate

12-ounce can frozen lemonade concentrate

2 bottles ginger beer or lemon-lime soda

Combine all ingredients in a punch bowl or large pitcher and stir until frozen juices have melted. Float citrus slices on the top. Accept compliments on your classiness.

TROPICAL HIGHBALL

Give the classic highball a tiki-inspired twist with sweet lychee juice and coconut water. Don a Hawaiian shirt and play some exotica music…you’re not in Cincinnati anymore. You’re in Tahiti. 

Ingredients: 

1 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

1 oz lychee juice

1 oz coconut water

½ oz simple syrup

½ oz lime juice

1.5 oz sparkling water

Combine all ingredients in a tiki glass over ice. Garnish with lychee and mint.

DANK-QUIRI

Ernest Hemingway was famously a daiquiri man, throwing back his own special version of the drink at his favorite bar in Havana. Alas, our strawberry version won’t make you a brilliant writer. Probably. Maybe. Try it to find out?

Ingredients: 

1 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

¾ oz strawberry simple syrup

¾ oz lime juice

Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker over ice and shake. Strain into a coupe glass and garnish with lime wheel. 

To make strawberry syrup: simmer 8 ounces of strawberries, a cup of water, and a cup of sugar in a saucepan over low heat for about 20 minutes. Then strain the berries out and cool in the refrigerator.

PERCOLATOR

Excellent for a unique brunch drink or an after-dinner dessert, this White Russian-inspired sipper is sweet and cinnamon-y.

Ingredients: 

1 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

1.25 oz cold brew

¾ oz cinnamon syrup

1 oz milk/cream of choice

Dash vanilla extract

Combine all ingredients in a rocks glass over ice. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon. 

To make cinnamon syrup: In a small saucepan, simmer a cup of water, a cup of sugar, and 3-4 cinnamon sticks (broken in half) for about five minutes. Then cut the heat and let it steep for two to six hours. Strain the cinnamon solids and chill.

TEXAS GARDEN WATER

The absolute simplest, most refreshing cocktail this side of the Mississippi has to be Texas Ranch Water. Tequila, Topo Chico, and fresh lime…that’s an all-day, any day drink. When you swap out Cannabis Spirit for tequila, you get a beautifully balanced earthy drink that tastes like summer afternoons.

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

12 oz bottle Topo Chico (or sparkling mineral water of your choice)

Juice from half a lime

Pour all ingredients into a pint glass over ice and enjoy. 

Want to add some sweetness? Try using a GRAV Flavor Shot in place of the Cannabis Spirit. Flavor Shots come in three fruit flavors and have 100 milligrams of THC per bottle.

 GREEN-O MOJITO

The minty mojito is the scourge of the bartender. Muddling takes time, which is what you don’t have in a packed bar at 10pm on a Friday. Fortunately for the at-home mixologist, you won’t have a line of cranky not-drunk-enough patrons staring at you as you pulverize limes by hand. So get your mojito on.

Ingredients:

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

10-ish mint leaves

2 lime wedges

1 tsp simple syrup

½ tsp apple cider vinegar

½ cup coconut water

Splash of seltzer

Drop mint leaves, lime wedges, simple syrup, and apple cider vinegar into a strainer, and muddle to release the juices from the limes. 

Add ice, Cannabis Spirit, and coconut water. Shake. 

Pour into a fresh glass and top with seltzer and sprig of fresh mint. 

POT TODDY

The coziest drink in the winter cocktail canon has to be the hot toddy, combining bourbon, honey, lemon juice, and hot water. Our version is just as comforting. But it’s better. Because it has weed in it.

Ingredients:

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit 

1 tablespoon honey

2 teaspoons lemon juice

¾ to 1 cup hot water

1 cinnamon stick

Lemon wheel or peel

Preheat your mug, so it stays toasty longer. Just pour hot water into your favorite mug and let it sit for a few minutes before dumping it out.

Then, add GRAV Cannabis Spirit, honey, lemon juice, and hot water to your mug, and stir until honey is dissolved. Garnish with cinnamon stick and lemon wheel, and enjoy. Roaring fire optional but encouraged. 

Alternate Option: Green Tea Toddy

Some people like to add tea to their toddy. Black tea is most common, but we’d suggest using green for this recipe. The mild floral notes complement the grassiness of GRAV Cannabis Spirit. 

To make it: just brew a cup of green tea as you normally would, and add it to your mug in place of hot water. 

 

CRANNABIS FOR CHRISTMAS

Cranberries don’t get enough love outside of the Thanksgiving cranberry sauce deluge. That’s probably because they’re bitter as hell—until you balance them out with some sugar. This festive red cannabis cocktail gets sweetness and punch from ginger simple syrup, which you can make at home. (It’s easier than you’d think.)

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

4 oz 100% cranberry juice (not cranberry juice cocktail plz)

¾ oz ginger simple syrup

Optional: fresh cranberries or lime wedge for garnish

Fill a rocks glass with ice. Add Cannabis Spirit, cranberry juice, and simple syrup and stir to combine. Garnish with a skewer of fresh cranberries or a lime wedge. 

To make ginger simple syrup: 

1. Combine one cup of granulated sugar and ¾ cup water in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and stir continually until sugar is dissolved. 

2. Add one cup of fresh ginger (sliced and peeled) and bring syrup to a light boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for about 15 minutes. 

3. Remove from heat and steep for about an hour. Strain out solids and enjoy. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for two weeks or more…until it starts to look funky.

SPIRIT ROYALE

In the cocktail world, a “royale” is usually a cocktail topped with a float of champagne. So basically, royales make something awesome even awesome-r. This version uses crème de cassis, a blackcurrant liqueur, for sweetness and color. You can get it at any liquor store.

Ingredients: 

1.5 oz GRAV Cannabis Spirit

½ oz crème de cassis

3 oz sparkling wine

Strip of lemon peel for garnish

Add GRAV Cannabis Spirit and crème de cassis to a cocktail shaker over ice, and stir gently to chill. Strain into a champagne flute, and top with sparkling wine. Garnish with a twist of lemon peel. 

Fancy enough for New Year’s Eve, easy enough for a Tuesday.
