How to Brew Hemp Tea 2 Easy Recipes for a Cozy Wellness Boost

How to Brew Hemp Tea from Any Part of the Plant

Hemp tea is quickly becoming one of the most versatile ways to enjoy the benefits of hemp without the sugar and calories found in typical edibles. From reducing stress to supporting better sleep, hemp tea is an easy, soothing option for both wellness seekers and those curious about plant-based remedies.

In this guide, we’ll explore why hemp tea is gaining popularity, the science behind making it, and two simple recipes you can try today.

Why Hemp Tea? A Healthy, Versatile Alternative

Traditional hemp edibles—think gummies, chocolates, and brownies—are fun, but not always the best option for everyday wellness. Hemp tea is:

Healthier – No extra sugars or heavy fats.
Versatile – Brew it with your favorite tea flavors and spices.
Customizable – Adjust strength and flavors to suit your mood.

The Key Step: Activating Hemp Compounds

For hemp tea to be effective, the plant compounds need to be “activated” through a process similar to heating, which allows your body to absorb them properly. Unlike smoking or vaping, making tea requires a low, slow infusion with a fat source (like butter or coconut oil) to boost absorption.

Simple Hemp Tea Recipe

Ingredients & Tools:

  • 1 gram of ground hemp flower

  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or unsalted butter

  • 1 teabag (peppermint, chai, or green tea work great)

  • 4 cups water

  • Honey or agave (optional)

  • Coffee filter or fine strainer

Steps:
1️⃣ Heat water to a boil and melt in your fat source.
2️⃣ Add ground hemp, simmer for 10–15 minutes.
3️⃣ Strain mixture into a mug.
4️⃣ Steep your favorite tea bag and sweeten as desired.
5️⃣ Sip, relax, and enjoy!

FAQs About Hemp Tea

No. Hemp contains only trace amounts of psychoactive compounds, so drinking hemp tea will not produce a “high.” Instead, it provides calming, soothing effects without intoxication.

You can use hemp flower, trim, or even leftover pulp from making infused butter or oils. Hemp flower is the most common choice because it contains the highest amount of beneficial compounds.

Yes, adding a fat source like coconut oil or butter helps your body absorb the beneficial hemp compounds. These compounds are fat-soluble, not water-soluble.

It usually takes 30 to 90 minutes to feel the effects since it is absorbed through digestion. The effects can last anywhere from 3 to 5 hours depending on dosage and your body’s response.

Technically yes, but it won’t be as effective. Heating (decarboxylation) “activates” the beneficial compounds, making them easier for your body to absorb.

For most adults, hemp tea is considered safe when consumed in moderation. However, if you are pregnant, nursing, or on medications, always consult your healthcare provider first.
