Cannabis Butter Coffee
Bulletproof-style butter coffee with infused ghee, cinnamon, and a myrcene-heavy 5 mg dose. Rich, frothy, golden-topped — the kind of morning that doesn't need breakfast because it already is one.
Ingredients
- 12 oz freshly brewed dark roast coffee (French press recommended)
- 1 tbsp cannabis-infused ghee or butter (~5 mg THC)
- 1 tbsp MCT oil or coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground cardamom
- Pinch of flaky sea salt
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
- Star anise, for garnish
How to make it
- 1
Brew 12 oz of strong dark-roast coffee — a French press gives the fullest body. Pour into a blender while still hot.
- 2
Add cannabis-infused ghee, MCT oil, cinnamon, cardamom, salt, and sweetener if using.
- 3
Blend on high for 20–30 seconds until frothy and emulsified. The surface should look like a golden cappuccino.
- 4
Pour into a dark ceramic mug. The fats will create a natural crema.
- 5
Garnish with a star anise on the saucer. Drink while hot — the emulsion breaks as it cools.
Cooking tips
- Pair with Granddaddy Purple or Northern Lights — myrcene meets myrcene for a deeply grounding morning.
- The ghee is the dose vehicle. Don't add it to boiling coffee — let the brew cool 30 seconds first to protect potency.
- At 5 mg with fat-soluble carriers (ghee + MCT), expect a slower onset but longer tail. Plan accordingly.
- This replaces breakfast, not supplements it. The fat content is substantial — 250+ calories.

Why this pairing works
Myrcene — in your strain and on your plate
Myrcene is the most common terpene in cannabis and the engine behind many indica-style sedating effects. Earthy and herbaceous, it loves rich, slow-cooked, comforting foods.
