The Liquid Marijuana shot is, well, not exactly the most subtle cocktail in the world. From what we can gather, the intent of the “liquid marijuana” drink is to get you tipsy, but this particular Liquid Marijuana recipe calls for blue curaçao, Midori melon liqueur, coconut rum (commonly Malibu), and spiced rum—typically lower-proof spirits—making this a fairly low-ABV shooter despite its druggy name.
The Liquid Marijuana cocktail is sweet, fruity, bright greenish-blue, and ordering one at most craft cocktail bars will probably just get you a raised eyebrow and a quizzical look from the bartender. That said, sometimes it’s fun to have a party shot that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
For the record, there is absolutely no actual cannabis in this Liquid Marijuana drink. If real cannabis is what you’re looking for, check out our guide to cannabis cocktails and learn how the real stuff works.

Excitingly, cannabis infused vodka is an excellent base for weed infused recipes. This is a unique base to cannabis cocktails. You can make amazing tasting cannabis beverages and delicious weed edibles!
Weed infused vodka is a mutli-purpose weed edible. Here’s Why:
Notably, infuse high proof alcohol to create a multi-purpose cannabis consumable base. Fortunately, your cannabis spirit infusion essentially becomes a cannabis tincture. Weed tinctures are typically added to cannabis infused candies and weed edible recipes. You can use your weed infusion in canna-cocktails, weed gummies, and beyond.

This is the need to know before you make cannabis infused vodka:
Are you using your cannabis infused vodka for cocktails? Most noteworthy, it is important to understand that this infusion creates a “cross-fading” effect. Consequently, this effect is powerful and not for everybody. In addition, it is important not to abuse this infusion by consuming too much of it. Interestingly, the effects of alcohol almost kick in straight away. In contrast, the effect of this canna-infusion can take close to an hour. Drink slowly and remain aware of timing.
Furthermore, if you are planning to use this vodka weed infusion for edibles, the steps are slightly different. Most notably, cannabis tinctures require the process of evaporation. Alcohol is evaporated by boiling off the alcohol content at a high heat. As a result, this will leave you with a pure cannabis extraction.
How long will this cannabis spirit infusion take?
The cook time of weed vodka is quite short. It only takes about 45 minutes to prepare the weed infusion. We recommend that you leave your cannabis cannabis infused vodka from 48 hours, up to 2 weeks. As a result, you will get the best flavor and potency from your cannabis alcohol infusion.
What cocktails pair nicely with weed vodka?
Certainly, this weed vodka blends well into many cannabis cocktails. Remember that your vodka now is slightly more herbaceous. You can use this to your advantage in your cocktails.
Finally, consider making a Cannabis Infused Moscow Mule, or an elevated Herbed Vodka Martini. For the reason that you do not like the taste of cannabis, mask your cannabis infusion with additional juices.
I had this in Toronto when I was 18. Not sure of ingredients but so good! And now this is my favorite cocktail. It’s definitely on my drink menu.
I introduced my mother to this drink a few years ago and it is now her favorite. She always has the stuff to make it in the house.
