Summer is almost over and you need one more fun get-together, STAT! 

Rooted Hemp Co. has your back with these recipes and ideas for relaxing with your friends and loved ones. 

First up, get a cocktail (or a mocktail!) in to everybody’s hands! You’ll love this mojito-inspired Blackberry Smash made with Rooted Hemp Co. Mint flavored Clear Solution CBD. We put a modest 25mg of CBD in this drink, which means you’ll feel great and could probably enjoy a second cocktail if you wanted to. Ask your friends what they prefer; the CBD amount is customizable per drink. 

Here’s a fun video by our founder, Violet Robles, showing you how to make it:

For one drink: 

2 fresh blackberries

5-6 mint leaves

Ice

½ a lime

2 ounces vodka or gin

1 can of blackberry soda

25 mg of Clear Solution CBD – Mint flavor 

2-4 blackberries and more mint for garnish

Edible flowers like borage (totally optional, totally pretty!) 

Instructions: 

  1. In the bottom of a tall glass, add a couple of blackberries and mint leaves and muddle or SMASH them together to release all the aromatics. Add the fresh lime juice and fill your glass with ice. 
  2. Pour in your spirit of choice, then top off with blackberry soda and a garnish of mint leaves, fresh blackberries and edible flowers if you’ve got them! Add in your 25mg of Rooted Hemp Co. Mint Clear Solution and give it a gentle stir. Sip and enjoy! 

 

Now that you’ve got something to sip on, it’s time to dig into a delicious CBD snack: Pineapple Pico De Gallo! This salsa is fun, fresh and easy to make.
