Ingredients required for Herb-Infused Mango Smoothie:

• ECRU #DecarbKit or #Activator

• 1 gram of dried herb

• 1/2 cup neutral oil

• 1/2 cup of gelatin dessert

• 1 -1/2 cups of coconut water or fruit juice.

• 1 Tablespoon of sweetener to taste.

• A saucepan

• silicone molds

• whisk

Preparation

1, Crush the dried herb into small pieces by hand or use a grinder. Then sprinkle the herb into the glass decarboxylation box. Close the silicone lid, insert the thermometer probe into the lid

2, Put the decarb box in the oven and heat to 245°F for 30 minutes. Then remove the box from the oven

3, Mix the decarboxylated, ground herb and oil for 15 minutes. After that, pour the infused oil into a heat-resistant bowl through its fine mesh sieve.

4, Meanwhile, pour the fruit juice or coconut water into a saucepan and heat it to a low temperature. Attention, too high a temperature will damage the aroma compounds in your herb or alter its taste.

5, Add in the gelatin, and whisk slowly. The goal is a homogeneous mixture with the gelatin completely dissolved.

6, Add your tincture oil and whisk to disperse it.

7, Once all the above is thoroughly mixed, you can pour it into the molds.

8, Refrigerate your filled molds until they’re set.

Tips for serving infused treats

Note: The strength of your infused treats depends on several factors, from the herb variety you choose to storage, or even how long and at what temperature you treated the herb. For a safe serving, try to spread 1/4 teaspoon on a snack and see how that portion affects you after an hour. First-time users must be very careful with portions.
