In celebration of #NationalCBDDay, BarDiva presents a spin on Local Meditations' CBD Mocktail and an alcoholic Cocktail version using Full Spectrum Cannabinoids CBD Oil purchased from Local Meditations in the Historic Georgetown area of Washington, D.C.
Local Meditations doesn't suggest the combination of alcohol and CBD; however, we had to five it a try.
Between the two, many may delight in the mocktail version; "The Palmers" mocktail the most, because of how balanced the flavors were with the sweet tea, and pineapple juice. About 15 mins after drinking it, you'll feel the CBD effects through a mellow-and-calm disposition, and able to carry on about your day and functions regularly.
The CBD cocktail "Class in a Glass;" however, is a major hit on presentation, and taste. You get two cocktails in one, with two different tastes that blend perfect together. The sweetness of the cocktail balances out the dryness of the wine. The CBD effects from this cocktail were the same as the mocktail; mellow, calm and regular function.
Knowing your CBD is the most important aspect when creating Mocktails, and even Cocktails. Local Meditations uses only the best, tried and tested products to create their mocktails, and personal consultations are available on site. Visit @localmeditations on Instagram for a myriad of CBD and all-natural products, in a variety of forms.
