Prep
Preparing this cannabis-flavored drink is a lot easier than you would think, and the result will absolutely astonish you!
Lord Melvin Terpene Cocktail Step by Step
- Make a cut on one side of the melon, and use a knife to open a hole in the melon and empty it out, to hold around a glass (200 -250ml). The melon you crape out will be used to make the drink itself.
- Put 60ml melon juice, 75ml chardonnay, sugar, mint, 1 drop of terpenes and ice in your cocktail shaker.
- Shake.
- Pour the result into your previously carved out melon.
- Add some ice, a couple of straws and… enjoy!
Taste Test
The idea behind the Lord Melvin cocktail is to create a recipe for all 5 senses:
- The sense of smell is inundated by a mix of sweet, fruity, sour and citric aromas.
- It’s a wonderfully beautiful drink to put together.
- The touch of the melon brings you another step closer to nature, drinking straight from the fruit itself.
- The flavor of the fruit and terpenes mixed together is an explosion.
- And… uh, yeah, maybe 5 senses was going a bit to far.
This recipe has a complex combination of sweet, fruity, intensely fresh flavours from the melon and AK 47 terpenes, which alongside the sourness of the wine, the hint of mint and citrus, make each sip completely unique.
Main Terpenes in AK47:
Myrcene, b-Caryophyllene, d-Limonene, d-a-Pinene, a-Pinene, b-Pinene.
