Both coconut and CBD make everything better, so this recipe is a no brainer. Whether you’re cooking with CBD oil or cooking with CBD powder making CBD smoothies is quick and easy.

There are two ways you can go about prepping your CBD for this recipe.
If you’re using CBD isolate: Use the double boiling method to infuse CBD isolate with MCT oil. Dose as desired. We used 1 full gram of CBD isolate with 1 tablespoon of unrefined coconut MCT oil for this recipe.
Check out our comprehensive guide on the double boiling method here.
Feel free to swap our coconut MCT oil for a carrier oil of your preference. Avocado oil, olive oil, hemp oil, and almond oil are all carrier oils that would work as well.
