What Is Cannabis Juice?
Cannabis juice is the raw, freshly pressed juice from the cannabis plant. It is made from leaves, fresh buds, and sometimes even young stems. Unlike smoked or heated cannabis, the juice contains no active THC because the plant material has not been decarboxylated.
This means: no high, but a unique way to consume cannabinoids in their raw, natural form. In this article, you’ll discover what cannabis juice is, how it’s made, and why some users choose it.
How Is Cannabis Juice Made?
Cannabis juice is simply made by pressing fresh plant parts in a juicer. Only raw material works—dried cannabis is not suitable.
Step-by-step:
- Use fresh leaves and buds from a healthy cannabis plant.
- Rinse the material thoroughly.
- Run it slowly through a slow juicer or cold press.
- Collect the juice and use it immediately or freeze it.
Raw cannabis juice oxidizes quickly, so fresh is always best.
How Do You Use Cannabis Juice?
The juice can be consumed straight, but many people mix it with other vegetables or fruit to improve the flavor. Because raw cannabis is non-psychoactive, you can drink it at any time of the day.
Popular ways to use cannabis juice:
- As a pure shot
- Mixed into smoothies
- Combined with vegetable or fruit juice
- Frozen in ice cube portions for daily use
Note: always use plant material that is safely and cleanly grown.
When Should You Choose Cannabis Juice?
Choose cannabis juice if you’re looking for a non-psychoactive form of cannabis. Raw juice contains cannabinoids in their acidic form (such as THCa and CBDa), which work differently from their heated counterparts.
Ideal if you:
- Want to use cannabis without getting high.
- Want a natural, plant-based addition to your daily routine.
- Are curious about the benefits of raw cannabinoids.
