Yes. You can simmer a cup of water. Put some bud in it. Simmer it for just a minute to get the bud totally soaked and then press it out into the pan and add dark instant tea of any kind. No tea bags. Just instant.
Back in the old west, the Chinese used to have a recipe almost like that for minor aches and pains. One of the many Laudanum type recipes that didn't envolve other drugs. They used to put it into bottles of homemade lightening. Cure almost anything. hehe
You can spice up a bottle of 100 proof vodka with it as well. The vodka soaks the oils out into solution. You pour yourself a bloody Mary and you get a nice high with it. Shake the bottle a little bit just before pouring.
Tastes like hell but will stone you good.
No drinking through straws while your mouth is sore either... It will make it bleed.
A garlic press works great for pressing buds for tea. Make sure they're soaked real good first in the hot water. If you used lose tea, you can press it in the garlic press too, to make sure all the thc oil is in the tea.
Drink up and enjoy.
A little honey, a little milk, not bad. In 30 minutes, you won't care anyway.
