Elevated infused brunch classics


Brunch has long been a beloved weekend ritual, blending comfort food with leisurely vibes. In recent years, it's evolved into something even more indulgent: elevated infused brunch classics. Here, traditional dishes get a gourmet makeover with subtle cannabis infusions—think THC or CBD for a relaxed, euphoric edge. Whether you're hosting a chic gathering or treating yourself, these recipes balance bold flavors, sophisticated presentations, and precise dosing for a next-level experience. Always prioritize responsible consumption, starting low and going slow, especially in legal markets.

1. Elevated Avocado Toast with Infused Chili Oil

Avocado toast is brunch royalty, but elevate it with house-made infused chili oil and premium toppings for a spicy, umami-packed bite.

Ingredients (serves 2):
- 2 slices sourdough bread, toasted
- 2 ripe avocados, mashed with lemon juice, salt, and pepper
- 2 tbsp cannabis-infused chili oil (use a 5-10mg THC per serving tincture base)

Preparation:
1. Drizzle toasted sourdough with infused chili oil.
2. Spread mashed avocado generously.

This version transforms the simple staple into a restaurant-worthy plate, where the infused oil adds a warming, subtle buzz without overpowering the creamy avocado.

The truffle infusion elevates the richness, pairing perfectly with the sauce's gentle cannabis lift for brunch euphoria.

No brunch is complete without cocktails. Elevate with layered infusions.

Mimosa Flight:
- Prosecco + orange juice infused with 2.5mg THC per flute.

Pro Tips for Perfect Infused Brunch

- Dosing: Calculate total THC/CBD (e.g., 5-10mg per serving). Use lab-tested tinctures or cannabutter.
- Infusion Methods: Decarboxylate cannabis, infuse into fats/oils/butters. Store properly for potency.
- Pairing: Balance earthy strains with citrus/acid; sativas for daytime energy.
- Safety First: Consume in legal areas, avoid driving, have non-infused options.
- Presentation: Use heirloom dishware, edible flowers, and candlelight for that luxe feel.

Elevated infused brunch isn't just food—it's an experience that marries culinary artistry with mindful indulgence. Gather your crew, fire up the kitchen, and brunch like royalty.
