Everything You Need to Know About THC Syrup and its Uses

If you’re here, it’s likely because you want to learn everything you need to know about THC syrup and its uses.

First of all, it’s important to understand that THC syrup is basically a cannabis-infused simple syrup.

And a simple syrup, for those of you who don’t know, is basically a syrup made with sugar and water.

In other words, THC syrup is basically a hemp-flavored syrup that empowers you to flavor drinks, foods, and desserts in unique and interesting ways.

Plus, it even packs in a few health benefits as an extra bonus.

And of course, one of the best parts of using THC syrup is the fact that you do get that delightful, yet mild ‘THC high’ from it.

So if you love THC, and if you love simple syrups, then THC syrup is probably going to be an excellent addition to your food cabinet and culinary repertoire.

Plus, you can even make it yourself—which is pretty cool.

So in this blog post, you’re going to learn everything you need to know about THC syrup and its uses.

Let’s dive into it.

1. Is THC Syrup The Same Thing As ‘Lean’?

One widespread misconception about THC syrup is that it’s actually the same thing as lean.

Lean, sometimes called sizzurp or purple drank, is a beverage popular in some different types of drug cultures—which is created by mixing codeine and promethazine with soda.

THC syrup is absolutely different from this type of drink.

Lean is made by mixing an opiate and an antihistamine, which is actually quite dangerous and addictive.

THC syrup, on the other hand, is a simple mixture of sugar, water, and THC concentrate (sometimes, alcohol is used to make tinctures which can be used to create the syrup, which is slightly different—but sometimes that’s how it’s done).

2. Can You Make Your Own THC Syrup?

Yes, you can absolutely make your own THC syrup.

And there are several different methods that you can employ to do it.

The basic idea behind making THC syrup is this:

You can either make it using a high-proof alcohol or glycerin.

With that being said, creating THC syrup with glycerin requires an extra step in that you need to decarboxylate your cannabis flower first.

For this reason, one of the best ways to create it is actually to use high-proof grain alcohol to create a tincture.

You can then use the tincture, along with water, sugar, and optional extra flavorings, to create your THC-based syrup.

3. How Do You Use It?

There are a variety of different ways in which to use THC syrup in everyday life.

For example, one of the most common uses for it is to mix it into cocktails.

You could mix it into alcoholic cocktails to create an alcohol and THC blend, or you can use it to sweeten things like tea, coffee, or lemonade.

Just be careful if you plan to mix your THC syrup with alcohol. You’ll probably want to reduce the amount of THC content you’re using if you plan to mix it with alcohol because mixing THC and alcohol can lead to a ‘crossfade’ effect, which can give you the spins and make you feel sick.

THC syrup can also be used in cooking recipes, for sweets, and even for drizzling as a glaze on fresh fruit or vegetables.

One very common use for THC syrup among dessert lovers is to soak cake layers in it before eating the cake. This gives you some amazing THC flavor, as well as some delightful THC mood-enhancing effects from the cannabis.

However you plan to use it, the evidence is pretty clear…

People tend to love THC syrup because it’s so mild and gives you a powerful format for consuming edibles without going too crazy on so much THC content that you get blitzed out of your mind and forget where you are or what you’re doing.

It’s light, tasty, and fun.
