Cannabis Simple Syrup
A versatile infused syrup for cocktails, mocktails, coffee, and sparkling water. Water-soluble lecithin makes it mix cleanly without oil separation.
Potency
Uses 3 tablespoons of MCT tincture across approximately 24 tablespoons of syrup. Each tablespoon of syrup contains roughly 1/8 of your total tincture dose.

Instructions
- 1
Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves completely. Do not boil.
- 2
Remove from heat and cool to 140°F.
- 3
Whisk in lecithin until dissolved, then slowly whisk in MCT tincture. The lecithin allows the oil to emulsify into the water-based syrup.

Whisk vigorously for 1 minute until the mixture looks uniform with no oil droplets.

Transfer to a glass bottle. Shake before each use — some separation is normal.
Notes & Storage
- Lecithin is essential here — without it the oil and syrup will separate completely and dosing will be uneven.
- Store refrigerated for up to 2 weeks. Shake well before each use.
- Use 1–2 tablespoons per drink. Mix with sparkling water, lemonade, cocktails, or coffee.
Edibles take 30–120 minutes to take effect. Label all infused food clearly and store away from children. Not medical advice.
