Introduction
In an increasingly fast-paced world, moments of pause have become essential for physical and emotional balance. Small daily rituals, such as preparing teas and infusions, help to create a sense of calm and presence.
In recent years, CBD (cannabidiol) has been gaining popularity as a functional ingredient in natural drinks. With relaxing, anti-inflammatory and balancing properties, CBD transforms the simple act of drinking tea into a true daily wellness ritual.
What are CBD teas and infusions?
CBD infusions are drinks made from hemp leaves rich in cannabidiol, often combined with other calming plants and herbs such as chamomile, linden, lavender or mint.
CBD is extracted from industrial hemp – legal in the European Union – and has no psychoactive effects. When infused in hot water with a small amount of fat (such as milk, coconut oil or butter), the cannabidiol is released and absorbed more effectively by the body.
Unlike traditional hemp tea, which uses only the leaves, some infusions combine purified CBD oils with aromatic herbs, intensifying the flavor and relaxing effect.
Benefits of CBD teas and infusions
Drinking a CBD infusion is a natural way of incorporating cannabidiol into everyday life. Among the most common benefits are:
- Relaxation and anxiety reduction – ideal for times of stress.
- Improved sleep quality, preparing the body for night-time rest.
- Anti-inflammatory and digestive effect, useful after meals.
- Hydration and general balance, as a healthy alternative to coffee or energy drinks.

How to prepare the perfect CBD tea
The secret to getting the most out of CBD tea is in the preparation:
- Boil the water and let it stand for a few seconds before pouring it over the hemp leaves.
- Add a small amount of fat (such as vegetable milk, coconut oil or a little honey with butter) – CBD is fat-soluble, meaning it dissolves better in fat than in water.
- Leave to infuse for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the desired intensity.
- Filter and enjoy calmly.
Popular combinations include CBD with chamomile for evening relaxation, CBD with mint for freshness and digestion, and CBD with ginger for energy and balance.
According to an article in Medical News Todaythe absorption of CBD is significantly more effective when ingested with healthy fat, which reinforces the importance of preparing these infusions correctly.
When and how to incorporate CBD tea into your routine
CBD infusions can be adapted to different times of the day:
- In the morning: to start the day with serenity and focus.
- During work: to maintain concentration and reduce accumulated stress.
- In the evening: to prepare the body for rest and relieve the mind of the tensions of the day.
Creating a personal ritual – preparing the infusion calmly, putting away your cell phone and dedicating a few minutes just to yourself – turns tea into a moment of mindfulness and self-care.
