All Cannabis Tinctures
Tinctures provide the benefit of fast onset with zero sugar. Many customers like cannabis tinctures because they are zero sugar, keto-friendly and have a faster onset than regular edibles (when you keep it under your tongue for ~1 minute). TribeTokes tinctures are boosted with rare cannabinoids for additional benefits, and are a refreshing lemon mint flavor.
How To Choose A Tincture: Delta 8 THC is a psychoactive cousin to traditional “Delta 9 THC” and you will get high. CBN is a sedative – you won’t get high but it should put you right to sleep. CBG is amazing for inflammation, gut health, mood and overall wellness. CBD is famously known for helping with anxiety, relaxation and inflammation.

WEED TINCTURES FAQ
What is a Cannabis Tincture?
A cannabis tincture is a liquid extract of the beneficial compounds of cannabis, mixed with a carrier oil or alcohol. This mixture can then be consumed by holding it under the tongue or in the cheek, where is will absorb into your bloodstream directly, or added to food and beverages. Tinctures are known for their versatility and ease of use, allowing for precise dosing and a discreet way to consume cannabis. The absorption rate under your tongue is also higher than through your digestive system, although you do swallow any oil leftover at the end so you do not waste any of the valuable tincture.
Why does TribeTokes use MCT oil as a base for all of its cannabis tinctures?
TribeTokes has chosen to use MCT oil as a carrier oil for its tinctures for the following reasons:
- Enhanced Absorption: MCT (Medium-Chain Triglyceride) oil is easily absorbed by the body. When used as a carrier for cannabinoids, it can increase their bioavailability. Think of MCT oil as a first-class ticket for cannabinoids to enter your bloodstream!
- Fast-Acting Effects: Due to its quick absorption, MCT oil can help deliver cannabinoids to your system faster. It’s like giving your tincture a turbo boost!
- Longer Shelf Life: MCT oil is resistant to rancidity, giving your tincture a longer shelf life. It’s like a time capsule for your cannabinoids, keeping them fresh and potent for extended periods.
- Tasteless and Odorless: Unlike some other carrier oils, MCT oil is virtually tasteless and odorless. This allows the natural flavors of the cannabis extract to shine through. It’s like having an invisible stage for your cannabinoids to perform on!
- Liquid at Room Temperature: MCT oil remains liquid at room temperature, making it easy to measure and dose accurately. No more struggling with solidified oil – it’s smooth sailing all the way!
- Potential Health Benefits: MCT oil itself is associated with various health benefits, including improved energy and cognitive function. It’s like getting a two-for-one deal – cannabinoids and MCT benefits in one package!
- Versatility: MCT oil mixes well with other ingredients, making it ideal for creating custom tincture blends. It’s the Swiss Army knife of carrier oils!
- Keto-Friendly: For those following a ketogenic diet, MCT oil is a perfect fit as it’s a source of healthy fats that can promote ketosis. It’s like making your tincture a team player in your dietary goals!
- Improved Consistency: MCT oil helps maintain a consistent texture in your tincture, preventing separation of ingredients. It’s like having a peacekeeper for your cannabinoid blend!
- Increased Solubility: Cannabinoids are fat-soluble, and MCT oil provides an excellent medium for them to dissolve in. It’s like creating the perfect swimming pool for your cannabinoids to hang out in!
- Gentle on the Digestive System: MCT oil is generally well-tolerated by the digestive system. This can be particularly beneficial for those using cannabis for digestive issues. It’s like giving your gut a soft landing for your cannabinoids!
Why would you choose a tincture over an edible?
Excellent question! Cannabis tinctures and edibles each have their own merits, but tinctures offer several unique advantages. Let’s explore why you might choose cannabis tinctures over edibles:
- Faster Onset of Effects: Tinctures, when taken sublingually (under the tongue), can kick in within 15-30 minutes. Edibles, on the other hand, can take 1-2 hours to produce effects. It’s like choosing between express and standard shipping for your cannabinoids!
- More Precise Dosing: With tinctures, you can measure your dose down to the drop. This level of precision is much harder to achieve with edibles. It’s like having a finely-tuned instrument versus playing by ear.
- Easier to Adjust Dosage: If you need to tweak your dose, it’s much easier with tinctures. You can simply add or subtract a few drops. With edibles, you’re often stuck with pre-determined doses. Think of tinctures as customizable, while edibles are more one-size-fits-all.
- Longer Shelf Life: Tinctures typically last longer than edibles before going bad. It’s like choosing between a can of soup and fresh produce – the can will be good long after the veggies have wilted.
- Fewer Calories: For those watching their calorie intake, tinctures are a clear winner over many edibles, especially sugary ones. It’s cannabis without the cake, so to speak!
- Discretion: Tinctures are often more discreet than edibles. A few drops under the tongue are less noticeable than munching on a cannabis cookie. It’s like being a cannabis ninja!
- Versatility: While primarily taken sublingually, tinctures can also be added to food or drinks if desired. Edibles don’t offer this flexibility. Tinctures are like the Swiss Army knife of cannabis consumption.
- Potential for Faster Titration: Because the effects of tinctures can be felt more quickly, it’s easier to find your optimal dose in a shorter time frame. With edibles, this process can take days or weeks. It’s like fine-tuning a radio – tinctures let you dial in your perfect frequency faster.
- Less Impact on Blood Sugar: For those monitoring their blood sugar levels, tinctures don’t cause the spikes that sugary edibles might. It’s a smoother ride for your glucose levels.
- Easier on the Digestive System: Tinctures bypass most of the digestive process when taken sublingually. This can be beneficial for those with sensitive stomachs or digestive issues. It’s like taking the express lane in your body’s highway system.
- More Consistent Effects: Because tinctures don’t have to be digested, their effects tend to be more consistent from dose to dose. Edibles can sometimes be affected by what else you’ve eaten. Tinctures are like a reliable friend – consistently there when you need them.
Remember, the choice between tinctures and edibles often comes down to personal preference and individual needs. Tinctures offer precision, speed, and flexibility that many users find appealing.
Whether you’re a cannabis connoisseur or a curious newcomer, tinctures provide a unique and effective way to experience the benefits of cannabis. It’s like having a little bottle of potential right at your fingertips!
What are some alternative or slang terms for cannabis tincture?
A cannabis tincture may also be referred to as a weed tincture, ganja tincture, marijuana tincture, pot tincture, mmj tincture, THC tincture oil, or hash tincture. At TribeTokes, we use all of these terms interchangeably!
How long does it take for a weed tincture to kick in?
Buckle up, because weed tinctures are the speed demons of the cannabis world! When taken sublingually, you might feel effects in as little as 15-30 minutes. It’s like the difference between waiting for a pizza delivery and microwaving a frozen one. However, when we add it to food or drinks, or just swallow it like a normal edible, it might take 1-2 hours to feel the full effects (similar to edibles). If you prefer fast onset, under the tongue or in your cheek is the way to go.
What are the benefits of using a cannabis tincture?
Cannabis tinctures are like the Swiss Army knife of cannabis products. They offer:
- Precise dosing (no more “oops, I ate the whole brownie” moments)
- Fast onset of effects when taken sublingually
- Discretion (no telltale smoke or odor)
- Long shelf life (they’re like the vampires of cannabis products)
- Versatility in consumption methods
- Potential for both recreational and medicinal use
It’s like having a personal cannabis assistant in a bottle!
How To Use A Cannabis Tincture
Using a cannabis tincture is relatively simple. Remember, everyone’s body reacts differently as we all have our own unique endocannabinoid system, so it’s important to find the right amount and method that works best for you. Here’s a basic guide of how to use a weed tincture:
- Determine Dosage: Most tinctures come with a dropper with mL markings, making it easy to measure the desired dosage. Read the instructions for dosing guidelines. Start with a small amount, especially if you are new to cannabis or tinctures, and work your way up from there.
- Administer Sublingually: Place the desired amount under your tongue and/or in your cheek using the dropper. Hold the liquid under your tongue for about 30-60 seconds before swallowing. This allows the cannabinoids to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the sublingual glands, providing faster onset compared to swallowing.
- Add to Food or Drink of Choice: You can also add the tincture to your food or beverage, although it may take longer for the effects to kick in when ingested compared to holding the oil under your tongue.
- Wait for Effects: Cannabis tinctures typically have a quicker onset than edibles such as gummies or chocolate, although the exact timing can vary. Effects may be felt within 15 minutes to an hour after you take it.
- Adjust Dosage: It’s always a good idea to start with a low dose and gradually increase until you achieve the effects you desire. If needed, you can adjust your dosage based on your individual response. You may also build a tolerance to cannabinoids, so starting small and slowly taking higher doses over time is called “titrating”
Are cannabis tinctures stronger than smoking?
Hold onto your hats, because cannabis tinctures can pack a serious punch! The concentration of cannabinoids in tinctures can make them more potent than smoking. Plus, when taken sublingually, more of the good stuff gets absorbed directly into your bloodstream. It’s like the difference between sipping a beer and taking a shot of vodka – both can get you there, but one is a bit more direct!
How should I store my cannabis tincture?
Treat your weed tincture like a fine wine (but please don’t drink it like one). Store it in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. A cabinet or drawer works perfectly. Most tinctures come in dark glass bottles to protect the contents from light degradation. With proper storage, your tincture can last for months or even years. It’s like having a time capsule of chill in your cupboard!
Will cannabis tinctures show up on a drug test?
Here’s where things get as murky as bong water. If your tincture contains THC (the psychoactive compound in cannabis), it can absolutely show up on a drug test. CBD-only tinctures shouldn’t trigger a positive result, but there’s always a tiny risk of trace amounts of THC. If you’re deciding between CBD vs THC, if you’ll be drug tested it’s best to stick with CBD. If you’re subject to drug testing, it’s best to err on the side of caution. Remember, what happens in Vegas… might show up on your drug test!
How To Make A Cannabis Tincture
Making a cannabis tincture involves extracting cannabinoids from the plant material and infusing them into a solvent. This is NOT how we make tinctures at TribeTokes – ours involve high tech extraction equipment, homogenizing equipment, etc – but here’s a basic recipe for an alcohol-based weed tincture if you wanted to make one at home with your home grow!
Ingredients:
- Ground cannabis flower (decarboxylated)
- High-proof alcohol
Equipment:
- Mason jar
- Fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth
- Funnel
- Amber glass dropper bottles
Instructions:
- Decarboxylation:
- Preheat your oven to around 240°F (115°C).
- Spread the ground cannabis evenly on a baking sheet.
- Bake for about 30-40 minutes to activate the cannabinoids through a process called decarboxylation.
- Combine Cannabis and Alcohol:
- Place the decarboxylated cannabis in a mason jar.
- Pour enough alcohol to cover the cannabis completely.
- Seal and Shake:
- Seal the jar tightly.
- Shake the jar vigorously to ensure even distribution of the cannabis in the alcohol.
- Steeping (Extraction):
- Store the sealed jar in a cool, dark place for a few weeks. Shake the jar once a day to enhance the extraction process.
- Strain the Mixture:
- After a few weeks, strain the mixture using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth into another container. This separates the liquid (now infused with cannabinoids) from the plant material.
- Bottle the Tincture:
- Use a funnel to pour the strained liquid into amber glass dropper bottles. Amber glass helps protect the tincture from light, preserving its potency.
- Dosage:
- Use a dropper to measure and administer the desired dosage.
Remember, the potency of the tincture depends on factors like the quality and potency of the cannabis used, as well as the duration of extraction. Exercise caution, start with a low dose, and adjust as needed based on your tolerance and desired effects.
