A new way to eat your greens! Here are some of our Hive's favorite holiday recipes to infuse for your special occasion meals.
Whether the weather starts to get colder and the leaves start to change colors, and nature is telling you the holidays are approaching or the days are getting longer and temperatures are rising, some families' special occasion feasts are full of laughter while others can involve bickering over political and personal views.
One way to calm everyone's nerves during family gathering feasts (with their consent, obviously) is to infuse a little cannabis into your holiday recipes.

The ingredients used for the marinade are fairly basic and full of flavor but you'll probably notice a stronger taste of cannabis when you take your first bite.

Raw cannabis will not give you the full psychoactive effects because it doesn’t naturally have THC but rather the acidic form of […]
“In strict medical terms, marijuana is far safer than many of the foods we consume.” – a finding from the U.S. Department of Justice.
