Farmacy launches cannabis cocktails
Farmacy, a London restaurant championing plant-based dishes, has launched a range of drinks laced with CBD – a chemical compound found in the cannabis plant.
The OMG shot, laced with CBD oil
The restaurant, founded by Camilla Fayed in Westbourne Park, is the first in London to offer CBD drinks, though the trend is already popular in America.
There’s Something About Mary CBD cocktail
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive part of the cannabis plant. CBD oil is touted as having a number of health benefits, and is thought to be an anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and antidepressant, and can be used to improve mood, memory, motor control, sleep and energy levels.
CBD has also been used to treat epilepsy and as a pain reliever. Keen to harness CBD’s health benefits, Farmacy has developed a range of drinks infused with CBD oil and claims it has sourced “the highest quality CBD available”.
Served as a shot from a syringe, the OMG blends CBD with flaxseed and grapefruit. There’s Something About Mary meanwhile, features CBD, vanilla vodka, lime juice, homemade hemp and bay leaf syrup, mango puree and a dash of chilli sauce.
The Grass Me Up is a smoothie made with CBD, coconut water, pineapple, lime juice, acai protein powder, hemp seeds and banana.
In addition, the restaurant will serve a range of “medicinal mushrooms” known for their positive effects on the heart, liver and intestines and their anti-cancer properties.
Dishes at Farmacy support both a vegan and vegetarian diet and are free from dairy, refined sugars, additives and chemicals.
CBD not THC ..there is a big difference. Cannabis? I think not. Hemp? absolutely.. Here in the USA without an FDA approval, one cannot say that CBD in a cocktail does anything at all.. This drug has not been evaluated by the FDA and may not heal or cure any known ailment. But what does this have to do with England?
Well.. it’s pretty simple.
Hemp is what they make paper out of …. sailboat rope.. cosmetics. you cannot smoke it. and it will never get you high.. not even a lick!
I wrote Cannabis Cocktails.. the stuff in my book gets you high.. not your pocket made poorer from being milked by overpriced and trendy drinks.
So Warren what is your point?
