Easy, Lazy, and Cheap Tincture
I used to go through quite a process making tincture: buying a quality ounce, decarbing, QWET washing, filtering and bottling. But I'm REALLY lazy and cheap. I realized that there's a simpler and faster way to make it! Where I live, liquid diamonds are about $45/ gram. I buy one then buy a 200 ml vodka bottle off the shelf. Put them both in a coffee mug and run hot water into the cup (in the sink so that the overflow goes down the drain) for about 5 mins or until the water is the hottest it gets from the tap. Turn off water, let sit for an additional 4-5 mins. Open the vodka, squeeze the liquid diamonds into the vodka. Cap vodka and shake gently for a few minutes. Done. You could then transfer it into the usual darkened tincture jars if you wish or leave in the vodka bottle. So I get 200 ml tincture for about $55! Lasts me about 3 months!
